Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason why so few engage in it. More Henry Ford

Putman: You've manacled me to my death-bed, you Piccadilly whore! More Movie: Club Dread [2004] Movie: Club Dread [2004]

Prophecy is the most gratuitous form of error. More George Eliot

Dollars! All their cares, hopes, joys, affections, virtues, and associations seemed to be melted down into dollars. Whatever the chance contributions that fell into the slow cauldron of their talk, they made the gruel thick and slab with dollars. Men were weighed by their dollars, measures were gauged by their dollars; life was auctioned, appraised, put up, and knocked down for its dollars. The next respectable thing to dollars was any venture having their attainment for its end. The more of that worthless ballast, honor and fair-dealing, which any man cast overboard from the ship of his Good Nature and Good Intent, the more ample stowage-room he had for dollars. Make commerce one huge lie and mighty theft. Deface the banner of the nation for an idle rag; pollute it star by star; and cut out stripe by stripe as from the arm of a degraded soldier. Do anything for dollars! What is a flag to them! More Charles Dickens

The errors of faith are better than the best thoughts of unbelief. More Thomas Russell

A rolling stone can gather no moss. More Publilius Syrus

As no roads are so rough as those that have just been mended, so no sinners are so intolerant as those that have just turned saints. More Charles Caleb Colton

Vegetables are interesting but lack a sense of purpose when unaccompanied by a good cut of meat. More Sandy Gallin

Obviously, Chris has the physical component in spades. We were confident in him, but we also weren't quite sure what this guy with limited stage experience could do. And I'm amazed how well he's done. I have a ball with Chris every night. More Alec Baldwin

One who limits himself to his chosen mode of ignorance. More Elbert Hubbard

What is an expert? Someone who is twenty miles from home. More American Proverb

It is impossible to imagine the universe run by a wise, just and omnipotent God, but it is quite easy to imagine it run by a board of gods. If such a board actually exists it operates precisely like the board of a corporation that is losing money. More H. L. Mencken

You will never stub your toe standing still. The faster you go, the more chance there is of stubbing your toe, but the more chance you have of getting somewhere. More Charles Kettering

Grace is in garments, in movements, in manners; beauty in the nude, and in forms. This is true of bodies; but when we speak of feelings, beauty is in their spirituality, and grace in their moderation. More Joseph Joubert

Gluttony is the source of all our infirmities and the fountain of all our diseases. As fire extinguished by an excess of fuel, so is the natural health of the body destroyed by an intemperate diet. More Burton Burton

Make the iron hot by striking it. More Oliver Cromwell

By profession I am a soldier and take pride in that fact. But I am prouder -- infinitely prouder -- to be a father. A soldier destroys in order to build; the father only builds, never destroys. The one has the potentiality of death; the other embodies creation and life. And while the hordes of death are mighty, the battalions of life are mightier still. It is my hope that my son, when I am gone, will remember me not from the battle field but in the home repeating with him our simple daily prayer, Our Father Who Art in Heaven. More Douglas MacArthur

A linguistic system is a series of differences of sound combined with a series of differences of ideas. More Ferdinand De Saussure

Mr. Ray: Okay, class. Optical orbits up front, and remember, we keep our subesophageal ganglia to ourselves. That means you, Jimmy.
Jimmy: Aw, man. More Cartoons; Finding Nemo [2003] Cartoons; Finding Nemo [2003]

Men never do evil so cheerfully and so completely as when they do so from religious conviction. More Blaise Pascal
