If you want to be an actor, you have to do it because you love acting, not because you want to be a celebrity.

That thou seest, man, become too thou must; God, if thou seest God, dust, if thou seest dust.

Rhetoric, it seems, is a producer of persuasion for belief, not for instruction in the matter of right and wrong... And so the rhetorician's business is not to instruct a law court or a public meeting in matters of right and wrong, but only to make them believe.

Plato

I am the broth of love. Make soup to me.

Jarod Kintz

I believe everyody in the world should have guns. Citizens should have bazookas and rocket launchers too. I believe that all citizens should have their weapons of choice. However, I also believe that only I should have the ammunition. Because frankly, I wouldn't trust the rest of the goobers with anything more dangerous than string.

Scott Adams
