Well, I don't know, but I've been told the streets in heaven are lined with gold. I ask you how things could get much worse if the Russians happen to get up there first; Wowee! pretty scary!

A newspaper is the lowest thing there is.

Richard J. Daley

They tell us that suicide is the greatest piece of cowardice... that suicide is wrong when it is quite obvious that there is nothing in the world to which every man has a more unassailable title than to his own life and person.

Arthur Schopenhauer

The man who writes about himself and his own time is the only man who writes about all people and all time.

George Bernard Shaw

My personal view is that such total planning by the state is an absolute good and not simply a relative good... I do not myself think of the attitude I take as deriving from Marx - though this undoubtedly will be suggested - but from Fichte and Hegel.

John Grierson

There can be no greater error than to expect, or calculate, upon real favors from nation to nation. It is an illusion which experience must cure, which a just pride ought to discard.

George Washington

If the players don't trust the coach, it is a problem, and vice versa.

Bill Parcells

The wisest keeps something of the vision of a child. Though he may understand a thousand things that a child could not understand, he is always a beginner, close to the original meaning of life.

John Macy

Things need not have happened to be true. Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes, and forgot.

Neil Gaiman

Our law very often reminds one of those outskirts of cities where you cannot for a long time tell how the streets come to wind about in so capricious and serpent-like a manner. At last it strikes you that they grew up, house by house, on the devious tracks of the old green lanes; and if you follow on to the existing fields, you may often find the change half complete.

Walter Bagehot

The only reward of virtue is virtue; the only way to have a friend is to be one

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Making excuses is one of a host of self-defeating behaviours and mental patterns that can block your success.

Stephen Richards

Men are in numberless instances qualified for certain things, for no other reason than because they are qualified for nothing else.

William Hazlitt
