Latest greatest Quotes
Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
I believe in making the world safe for our children, but not our children's children, because I don't think children should be having sex.
Douglas Adams
He attacked everything in life with a mix of extrordinary genius and naive incompetence, and it was often difficult to tell which was which.

The secrets of this earth are not for all men to see, but only for those who seek them.

If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend.
Dean Hawkins
For every ailment under the sun, There is a remedy, or there is none... If there be one try to find it If there be none, never mind it
