I want a pit crew... I hate the procedure I currently have to go through when I have car problems.

Now, my knowledge of photography was terribly limited.

Ben Shahn

Too many activists have convinced themselves that they have a monopoly on truth. A little humility and a sense of history could move us all forward.

Jon Meacham

The genius of capitalism consists precisely in its lack of morality. Unless he is rich enough to hire his own choir, a capitalist is a fellow who, by definition, can ill afford to believe in anything other than the doctrine of the bottom line. Deprive a capitalist of his God-given right to lie and cheat and steal, and the poor sap stands a better than even chance of becoming one of the abominable wards of the state from whose grimy fingers the Reagan Administration hopes to snatch the ark of democracy.

Lewis H. Lapham

I'm still spending my working life trying to mine people's souls and now they're complimenting me in reviews on the amount of time I spend in the gym. On the definition of my triceps.

Jason Isaacs

If a man hasn't discovered something that he will die for, he isn't fit to live.

Martin Luther King Jr.

Every time I get up in the morning, melodies occur to me and I start trying to shape lyrics to melodies.

Andrew Bird

To become desireless, to not want anything external to ourselves, means we rest in ourselves, whole, joyous and happy. In this state, our true nature is constant love, unending love, giving love.

Lawrence Crane

In the electoral campaign, President Bush named as the most important person in his life Jesus. Now he has a unique chance to prove that he meant it seriously: for him, as for all Americans today, Love thy neighbor! means Love the Muslims! OR IT MEANS NOTHING AT ALL.

Slavoj Zizek

Every faculty you have, your power of thinking or of moving your limbs from moment to moment, is given you by God. If you devoted every moment of your whole life exclusively to His service you could not give Him anything that was not in a sense his own already ... It is like a small child going to its father and saying, 'Daddy, give me sixpence to buy you a birthday present.' It is all very nice and proper, but only an idiot would think that the father is sixpence to the good on the transaction.

C.S. Lewis

I've done it all. I'm thankful and proud of what I've accomplished in my life. I hope to keep doing it.

Ralph Stanley

Physical courage is a great test.

Oriana Fallaci

One of my dreams in life is to do fund-raising for the youth.
