All books are either dreams or swords.

Laughter can be more satisfying than honor; more precious than money; more heart-cleansing than prayer.

Harriet Rochlin

Being a funny person does an awful lot of things to you. You feel that you mustn't get serious with people. They don't expect it from you, and they don't want to see it. You're not entitled to be serious, you're a clown.

Fanny Brice

Sorrow is tranquility remembered in emotion.

Dorothy Parker

Men should only believe half of what women say. But which half?

Jean Giraudoux

Skepticism means, not intellectual doubt alone, but moral doubt.

Thomas Carlyle

Most truths are so naked that people feel sorry for them and cover them up, at least a little bit.

The truth is, I do indulge myself a little the more in pleasure, knowing that this is the proper age of my life to do it; and, out of my observation that most men that do thrive in the world do forget to take pleasure during the time that they are getting their estate, but reserve that till they have got one, and then it is too late for them to enjoy it.

Samuel Pepys

Distance doesn't exist, in fact, and neither does time. Vibrations from love or music can be felt everywhere, at all times.

Yoko Ono

There are three kinds of death in this world. There's heart death, there's brain death, and there's being off the network.

A baby is an inestimable blessing and bother
