Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. -Albert Einstein
In matters of virtue and wisdom, the majority is usually wrong. -Plato
We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love. -Theodor Seuss Geisel
Cheap booze is a false economy. -Christopher Hitchens
Go to the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes and no. -J.R.R. Tolkein
To try may be to die but not to care is never to be born. -William Redfield

There's no people who understand Jesus less than these Christians in America today; the ones who pretend to speak in his name. Jesus said very little about anything that they're all up in arms about. If they would just stick to what he said... you know we'd all be better off if they acted like him. These people need to go away. -Bill Mahr
Don't spend today regretting yesterday. Don't spend today worrying about tomorrow. It leaves little time to live today -Unknown

Your goodness must have some edge to it, else it is none." - Emerson

the wise person grows it under his feet." -James Oppenheim
"Anyone who stops learning is old,whether at twenty or eighty.Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young." -Henry Ford
"There is only on thing more painful than learning from experience and that is not learning from experience." -Archibald McLeish
All censorships exist to prevent anyone from challenging current conceptions and existing institutions. All progress is
initiated by challenging current conceptions, and executed by supplanting existing institutions. Consequently, the first condition of progress is the removal of censorships. -George Bernard Shaw
All great truths begin as blasphemies. -George Bernard Shaw
Why were they always so much trouble? So unhappy? There was no doubt about it, people who pursued money rather than art had longer careers, got more pleasure in life, were much better and more socially valuable people than those artists who tried to show the divine spark in human beings. Too bad you couldn't make a movie about that. That money was more healing than art and love. But the public would never buy it. -Mario Puzo".
