Unknown


If a pessimist is always right, is he a realist?

Edmund Burke


Whenever a separation is made between liberty and justice, neither, in my opinion, is safe.

Molly Ringwald


If you leave home for a while ... you question the conventional wisdom you've grown up with. That doesn't mean you have to change your opinions or who you are, but it's good to ask the questions.

John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859


He who lets the world, or his own portion of it, choose his plan of life for him, has no need of any other faculty than the ape-like one of imitation. He who chooses his plan for himself, employs all his faculties. He must use observation to see, reasoning and judgment to foresee, activity to gather materials for decision, discrimination to decide, and when he has decided, firmness and self-control to hold to his deliberate decision.

Shakespeare


Why then the worlds mine oyster, Which I with sword shall open.

William S. Buroughs, Paris Review, Fall 1965


I think there are innumerable gods. What we here on earth call God is a little tribal God who has made an awful mess. Certainly forces operating trough human conciousness control events.

Thomas Jefferson


It is in our lives and not our words that our religion must be read.

Horace Walpole


The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is sort of a Divine accident.

Percy Wynham Lewis


Sadistic excess attempts to reach roughly and by harshness what art reaches by fineness.

Steve Aylett, Toxicology (a book, 1999)


The truth is easiest to disprove - its defenses are down.

Ogden Nash

Be patient enough to live one day at a time, letting yesterday go and leaving tomorrow until it arrives.

I always remember an epitaph which is in the cemetery at Tombstone, Arizona. It says 'Here lies Jack Williams. He done his damnedest.' I think that is the greatest epitaph a man can have.
