You hear a lot about God these days: God the beneficent, God the all-great, God the Almighty, God the most powerful, God the giver of life, God the creator of death. I mean we're hearing about God all the time so we better learn how to deal with it. But if we know anything about God God is arbitrary.
Bob Dylan
He was a great patriot a humanitarian a loyal friend, provided of course he really is dead.
Voltaire
In politics shared hatreds are almost always the basis of friendships.
Alexis de Tocqueville
A life is either all spiritual or not spiritual at all. No man can serve two masters. Your life is shaped by the end you live for. You are made in the image of what you desire.
Thomas Merton
And it comes from saying no to 1 000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track or try to do too much. We're always thinking about new markets we could enter but it's only by saying no that you can concentrate on the things that are really important.
Steve Jobs
We cannot attribute to fortune or virtue that which is achieved without either.
Niccolo Machiavelli
If I'd observed all the rules I'd never have got anywhere.
Marilyn Monroe
Ambition is not a vice of little people.
Michel de Montaigne
Most hard-boiled people are half-baked.
Wilson Mizner
