If you want to see the true measure of a man, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.

The supreme lesson of any education should be to think for yourself and to be yourself absent this attainment, education creates dangerous, stupefying conformity.

Bryant McGill

She had had sweet dreams, which possibly arose from the fact that her little bed was very white.

Victor Hugo

Judges don't age; time decorates them.

Enid Bagnold

Regrets are about decisions that you know you should have done different.

Laurell K Hamilton

A robber? In the trash bins? Honestly, Wes. This is Salem Falls, not the set of Law and Order.

Music from my iPod was setting my life to a dramatic soundtrack that only I could hear.

Catherine Sanderson

I beseech you, my brothers, remain faithful to the earth, and do not believe those who speak to you of otherworldly hopes! Poison-mixers are they, whether they know it or not. Despisers of life are they, decaying and poisoned themselves, of whom the earth is weary: so let them go. Once the sin against God was the greatest sin; but God died, and these sinners died with him. To sin against the earth is now the most dreadful thing, and to esteem the entrails of the unknowable higher than the meaning of the earth... What is the greatest experience you can have? It is the hour of the great contempt. The hour when your happiness, too, arouses your disgust, and even your reason and your virtue.

Friedrich Nietzsche

I have found it is much easier to make a success in life than to make a success of one's life.

G. W. Follin

If the Nation is living within its income, its credit is good. If, in some crises, it lives beyond its income for a year or two, it can usually borrow temporarily at reasonable rates. But if, like a spendthrift, it throws discretion to the winds, and is willing to make no sacrifice at all in spending; if it extends its taxing to the limit of the peoples power to pay and continues to pile up deficits, then it is on the road to bankruptcy.

Franklin D. Roosevelt

Remember that nobody will ever get ahead of you as long as he is kicking you in the seat of the pants.

Walter Winchell

I know that there is an eye that watches all of us. There is a judgment that weighs everything we do. And before this great force, which is greater than any government, I stand in awe and I kneel in respect. And it is to this great judgment that I dedicate this next song.http://www.webheights.net/speakingcohen/denver.htm
