Well, I think first of all there was a failure to have real, clear information at our disposal. There was a real lack of situational awareness. We didn't have the capabilities on the ground to give us real-time, accurate assessments of the physical condition of the city.

Because our choices are largely based on survival. But if life is eternal, life is not a question.

Neale Donald Walsch

The law is sic a ass - a idiot.

Charles Dickens, Oliver Twist

One failure is worth seven and a half successes.

Eli Khamarov

Man must be prepared for every event of life, for there is nothing that is durable.

Menander

If we did not flatter ourselves the flattery from others would not harm us.

Proverb

The more I learn about human nature, the more I like my dog.

Mark Twain

There are three stages in a person's life, birth, their life and death. They are not conscious of birth submit to death and forget to live.

Jean de la Bruyere

My first few weeks in America are always miserable, because the tastes I am cursed with are all of a kind that cannot be gratified here, and I am not enough in sympathy with our gross public to make up for the lack on the aesthetic side. One's friends are delightful; but we are none of us Americans, we don't think or feel as the Americans do, we are the wretched exotics produced in a European glass-house, the most displaced and useless class on earth!

Edith Wharton

For a girl, the wedding is when you're married. For a guy, it's when you get engaged. It takes a real aggressive human being to back out between the ring and the wedding.

Max Greenfield

I hate work. That's why I got married.

Peg Bundy

That which is given with pride and ostentation is rather an ambition than a bounty.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

A person is a success if they get up in the morning and gets to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do.

Bob Dylan
