Well, I don't know as I want a lawyer to tell me what I cannot do. I hire him to tell how to do what I want to do.

The true rule, in determining to embrace, or reject any thing, is not whether it have any evil in it; but whether it have more of evil, than of good. There are few things wholly evil, or wholly good. Almost every thing, especially of governmental policy, is an inseparable compound of the two; so that our best judgment of the preponderance between them is continually demanded.

Abraham Lincoln

When someone tells me there is only one way to do things, it always lights a fire under my butt. My instant reaction is, I'm going to prove you wrong!

Beliefs are not related to religion but they are basically about who you are.

Stephen Richards

Like a boxer in a title fight, you have to walk in that ring alone.

Billy Joel

Americans are terrified because so many of them have been laid off in recent years and months and they fear that they may be next. Even if they have not been laid off or have not known anyone laid off, they definitely know someone who has lost his home.

Ben Stein

You can't tell your kids to read if you're just watching television. They have to see you read. And in that respect, I think it's important to walk the walk. It's a wonderful shared time.

Gary Ross

Shallow people believe in luck and in circumstances; Strong people believe in cause and effect.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen.

George Orwell

In England, it's a rare thing to see a player smoking but, all in all, I prefer that to an alcoholic. The relationship with alcohol is a real problem in English football and, in the short term, it's much more harmful to a sportsman. It weakens the body, which becomes more susceptible to injury.

Alex Ferguson

If I cannot brag of knowing something, then I brag of not knowing it; at any rate, brag.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Life is like a trumpet - if you don't put anything into it, you don't get anything out of it.

William Christopher Handy

Religion does not mean to surrender to dogmas and religious scriptures or conformity to rituals. But my religion constitutes an abiding faith in the perfect values of truth and the ceaseless attempt to realise them in the inner most part of our nature.
