Quotations for Today
Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
A funny thing is if you're out hiking and your friend gets bit by a poisonous snake, tell him you're going for help, then go about ten feet and pretend YOU got bit by a snake. Then start an argument about who's going to get help. A lot of guys will start crying. That's why it makes you feel good when you tell them it was just a joke.
Bertrand Russell
One of the symptoms of an approaching nervous breakdown is the belief that one's work is terribly important.
Gustave Flaubert
Our ignorance of history causes us to slander our own times.
Henry James
She was a woman who, between courses, could be graceful with her elbows on the table.
Anthony Burgess
I must say that acting was good training for the political life that lay ahead of us.
Albert Einstein
The wirless telegraph is not difficult to understand. The ordinary telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull the tail in New York, and it meows in Los Angeles. The wireless is the same, only without the cat.
Antoinette Brown Blackwell
Nature is just enough; but men and women must comprehend and accept her suggestions.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Noise is the most impertinent of all forms of interruption. It is not only an interruption, but is also a disruption of thought.
Ignazio Silone, The God That Failed (1950)
Liberty is the possibility of doubting, the possibility of making a mistake, the possibility of searching and experimenting, the possibility of saying No to any authority--literary, artistic, philosophic, religious, social and even political.
Clint Eastwood, Movie: "A Fistful of Dollars," 1964
Once a man has some money, peace begins to sound good to him.
Isaac Asimov
No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be. . .
