Violence and arms can never resolve the problems of men.

It never dawned on me at any particular time of my life that people are paid tremendous money to sing.

You gotta lose 'em some of the time. When you do, lose 'em right.

Casey Stengel

I just enjoy working with really wonderful actors and amazing creative people and I hope to keep doing that, no matter where.

Stana Katic

I'm not a knee-jerk conservative. I passionately believe in free markets and less government, but not to the point of being a libertarian.

Rupert Murdoch

I could not imagine that we should make much of an effort to preserve remainders of natural beauty in conquered Poland.

Fritz Todt

And when the Salmon seeks a fresher stream to find; (Which hither from the sea comes, yearly, by his kind,) As he towards season grows; and stems the watry tract Where Tivy, falling down, makes an high cataract, Forc'd by the rising rocks that there her course oppose, As tho' within her bounds they meant her to inclose; Here when the labouring fish does at the foot arrive, And finds that by his strength he does but vainly strive; His tail takes in his mouth, and, bending like a bow That's to full compass drawn, aloft himself doth throw, Then springing at his height, as doth a little wand That bended end to end, and started from man's hand, Far off itself doth cast, so does that Salmon vault; And if, at first, he fail, his second summersault He instantly essays, and, from his nimble ring Still yerking, never leaves until himself he fling Above the opposing stream.

Michael Drayton, PolyOlbion (six

All the great speakers were bad speakers at first.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

When I started law school I was shocked to learn that our legal system traditionally had the man as the head and master of the family. As late as the '70s and '80s when we were fighting for the Equal Rights Amendment, states like Louisiana still had a head and master law.

Miss: A title with which we brand unmarried women to indicate that they are in the market. Miss, Misses (Mrs.) and Mister (Mr.) are the three most distinctly disagreeable words in the language, in sound and sense. Two are corruptions of Mistress, the other of Master. If we must have them, let us be consistent and give one to the unmarried man. I venture to suggest Mush, abbreviated to MH.

Ambrose Bierce

O yellow eye,let me be sick with your heat,let me be feverish and frowning.

Anne Sexton

These are not dark days: these are great days -- the greatest days our country has ever lived.
