Police and firefighters are great but they don't create wealth. They protect it. That's crucial. Teaching is a wonderful profession. Teachers help educate people to become good citizens so that citizens can then go create wealth. But they don't create the wealth themselves.
Rush LimbaughI intend to live forever. So far so good.
Steven WrightShow me a good loser and I'll show you a loser.

ChanakyaThe greatest pleasure I know is to do a good action by stealth and have it found out by accident.

Dalai LamaOnly a writer who has the sense of evil can make goodness readable.
E. M. ForsterI think making a good film shot is joyful.

HeraclitusConcentrated power is not rendered harmless by the good intentions of those who create it.
Milton FriedmanI've had extraordinary good luck with my health, other than a broken elbow.
Hillary ClintonThere is no good in arguing with the inevitable. The only argument available with an east wind is to put on your overcoat.
James Russell LowellInstead of giving money to found colleges to promote learning why don't they pass a constitutional amendment prohibiting anybody from learning anything? If it works as good as the Prohibition one did why in five years we would have the smartest race of people on earth.
Will RogersWell all comedy starts with anger. You get angry and its never for a good reason right? You know its not a good reason. And then you try and work it from there.
Jerry SeinfeldInclusive good-quality education is a foundation for dynamic and equitable societies.
Desmond TutuFailure after long perseverance is much grander than never to have a striving good enough to be called a failure.

W. Somerset MaughamThere is as much greatness of mind in acknowledging a good turn as in doing it.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaMy body has certainly wandered a good deal but I have an uneasy suspicion that my mind has not wandered enough.
Noel CowardBe Silent yourself that will induce Silence in others. Do not fall into the habit of shouting talking long and loud. Reduce contacts to the minimum. Carry with you an atmosphere of quiet contemplation wherever you happen to be. The less you talk the more will become your mental power. With the increase in your mental capacity there will be increase in your power of discrimination too. Consequently you will give up individual discrimination . Because of this you will begin to consider the good of the world at large rather than your own individual welfare. You must cultivate such broad feelings from this young age itself.
Sai BabaMy kids say if there's any family dinner that doesn't result in somebody crying it's not a good dinner. They cry because it helps relieve them of a guilt or some onerous emotional burden. It's like a family tradition.
William ShatnerAtomic energy might be as good as our present day explosives, but is unlikely to produce anything very much more dangerous.
Winston ChurchillWhat does it say about a president's policies when he has to use a cartoon character rather than real people to justify his record? What does it say about the fiction of old liberalism to insist that good jobs and good schools and good wages will result from policies that have failed us time and again?
Mitt RomneyI look only to the good qualities of men. Not being faultless myself, I won't presume to probe into the faults of others.
Mahatma GandhiA man must have a very good opinion of himself when he asks people to leave their own fireside and encounter such a day as this for the sake of coming to see him. He must think himself a most agreeable fellow.
Jane AustenWhat this country needs what every country needs occasionally is a good hard bloody war to revive the vice of patriotism on which its existence as a nation depends.
Ambrose BierceThere's much to be said for feeling numb. Time passes more quickly. You eat less and because numbness encourages laziness you do fewer things good or bad and the world's probably a better place for it.
Doug CouplandThat good disposition which boasts of being most tender is often stifled by the least urging of self-interest.
Francois de La RochefoucauldI do this real moron thing it's called thinking and I'm not a very good Amercian because I like to form my own opionions.
George CarlinThey did a good job defensively. They were just crowding me and trapping me every time I came off a pick-and-roll or when I was in transition. We were playing so well as a team. Everybody was contributing. We had a nice lead. There was really no reason for me to push it or force shots.
Kobe BryantMarriage is a very good thing but I think it's a mistake to make a habit out of it.
W. Somerset MaughamFreedom comes only to those who no longer ask of life that it shall yield them any of those personal goods that are subject to the mutations of time.
Bertrand RussellWhen I write stuff and I help cast it I turn away good people all the time. I may turn them down because this one's too tall and that one doesn't have a high enough voice or this one looks to old to match up with that one - there's a billion reasons not to hire somebody.
Harvey FiersteinThere is in general good reason to suppose that in several respects the gods could all benefit from instruction by us human beings. We humans are - more humane.
Friedrich NietzscheYou say it is the good cause that hallows even war? I say unto you: it is the good war that hallows any cause.

Henry MillerLook within. Within is the fountain of good and it will ever bubble up if thou wilt ever dig.
Marcus AureliusThere is much good luck in the world but it is luck. We are none of us safe. We are children playing or quarrelling on the line.

ChanakyaWe're more than good. It's beyond comprehension. That's my guy. We go out on the road. After games we sit and talk. We review film on the plane. That's why it bothers me when somebody says something like that.
Kobe BryantThe main foundations of every state new states as well as ancient or composite ones are good laws and good arms you cannot have good laws without good arms and where there are good arms good laws inevitably follow.

Pablo PicassoThere is just no getting around that turning bad things into good things is up to you.
Deepak ChopraTo make no mistakes is not in the power of man, but from their errors and mistakes the wise and good learn wisdom for the future.
PlutarchThis is what customers pay us for - to sweat all these details so it's easy and pleasant for them to use our computers. We're supposed to be really good at this. That doesn't mean we don't listen to customers but it's hard for them to tell you what they want when they've never seen anything remotely like it.

Thomas JeffersonA general is just as good or just as bad as the troops under his command make him.
Douglas MacArthurWe didn't become the most prosperous country in the world just by rewarding greed and recklessness. We didn't come this far by letting the special interests run wild. We didn't do it just by gambling and chasing paper profits on Wall Street. We built this country by making things by producing goods we could sell.
Barack ObamaIt doesn't do good to open doors for someone who doesn't have the price to get in. If he has the price he may not need the laws. There is no law saying the Negro has to live in Harlem or Watts.
Ronald ReaganI remember when our whole island was shaken with an earthquake some years ago, there was an impudent mountebank who sold pills which (as he told the country people) were very good against an earthquake.

Thomas JeffersonA good listener is not only popular everywhere but after a while he knows something.
Wilson MiznerI have zero desire, just so you know, to be in the limelight. I don't think it's good for the country to have a former president criticize his successor. You're not going to see me giving my opinions in the public arena until I start selling my book. I'm going to emerge then submerge.
George W. BushGood things happen to those who hustle.
Anais NinDrawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.

H. L. MenckenA good artist should be isolated. If he isn't isolated something is wrong.
Orson WellesIf you're running for president you've got to do a lot of things to line up a candidacy. I've not done any of those things. It's not my plan. My plan is to be a good chairman of the House Budget Committee and fight for the fiscal sanity of this nation.
Paul RyanNature has no principles. She makes no distinction between good and evil.
Anatole FranceA man who says that no patriot should attack the war until it is over... is saying no good son should warn his mother of a cliff until she has fallen.
Gilbert K. ChestertonWhat scares me is (the re-testing procedure) would create a full-blown witch hunt. This would give them another year to sabotage the system again and that's not a good thought. I love my sport. I love racing. I feel I have accomplished enough.
Lance ArmstrongA man ought to read just as inclination leads him for what he reads as a task will do him little good.
Samuel JohnsonLogic! Good gracious! What rubbish!

Lance ArmstrongThere is an infinite difference between a little wrong and just right between fairly good and the best between mediocrity and superiority.

Robert Louis StevensonWhat good is a cow that neither gives milk nor conceives? Similarly what is the value of the birth of a son if he becomes neither learned nor a pure devotee of the Lord?
ChanakyaDrinking too much of Mr Weston's good wine.

George CarlinThere are three kinds of intelligence: one kind understands things for itself the other appreciates what others can understand the third understands neither for itself nor through others. This first kind is excellent the second good and the third kind useless.
Niccolo MachiavelliWhen you see a good man think of emulating him, when you see a bad man examine your own heart.
ConfuciusWhen I prayed for success I forgot to ask for sound sleep and good digestion.
Mason CooleyAs individuals people are inherently good. I have a somewhat more pessimistic view of people in groups. And I remain extremely concerned when I see what's happening in our country which is in many ways the luckiest place in the world. We don't seem to be excited about making our country a better place for our kids.
Steve JobsThe measure of choosing well is whether a man likes and finds good in what he has chosen.
Charles LambI am an over-achiever and I want to be known for the good things in my life.
Taylor SwiftSuccess in life comes not from holding a good hand but in playing a poor hand well.
Denis WaitleyWhen one has not had a good father one must create one.
Friedrich NietzscheSo it was a good field but the most important thing was that the team came up with a very difficult plan for me. Lance helped me a lot and having an idol a mentor like that to come up with a plan and for me to put the icing on the cake was a huge accomplishment. It taught me that if I believe in myself I can push my own limits. I hope to achieve that here next year even more and hopefully arrive at the top eventually.
Lance ArmstrongOpinion is the main thing which does harm or good in the world. It is our false opinions that ruin us.
Marcus AureliusIt is the merit of a general to impart good news and to conceal the truth.
SophoclesTo be doing good deeds is man's most glorious task.
SophoclesThe loyalties which center upon number one are enormous. If he trips he must be sustained. If he make mistakes they must be covered. If he sleeps he must not be wantonly disturbed. If he is no good he must be pole-axed.
Winston ChurchillWe are persuaded that good Christians will always be good citizens and that where righteousness prevails among individuals the Nation will be great and happy. Thus while just government protects all in their religious rights, true religion affords to government it's surest support.
George Washington1913 wasn't a very good year. 1913 gave us the income tax, the 16th amendment, and the IRS.
Ron PaulOne has to be a lowbrow a bit of a murderer to be a politician ready and willing to see people sacrificed slaughtered for the sake of an idea whether a good one or a bad one.
Henry MillerI enjoy life when things are happening. I don't care if it's good things or bad things. That means you're alive.
Joan RiversIt's the good loser who finally loses out.
Kin HubbardI guess the real reason that my wife and I had children is the same reason that Napoleon had for invading Russia: it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Bill CosbyIt seems to me we can never give up longing and wishing while we are thoroughly alive. There are certain things we feel to be beautiful and good and we must hunger after them.
George EliotIt would be foolish to suggest that government is a good custodian of aesthetic goals. But there is no alternative to the state.
John Kenneth GalbraithIt was a good season for me individually. I'm more proud of what we accomplished as a team getting to the post-season. At the end of the season here we are Kobe Bryant
A good system shortens the road to the goal.
Orison Swett MardenIt's been a good month.
Kobe BryantIt may be necessary temporarily to accept a lesser evil but one must never label a necessary evil as good.

Henry David ThoreauThe ''good old times'' -- all times when old are good.
Lord ByronThe omission of good is no less reprehensible than the commission of evil.
PlutarchHe that gives good advice builds with one hand, he that gives good counsel and example builds with both, but he that gives good admonition and bad example builds with one hand and pulls down with the other.
Francis BaconThere is not any present moment that is unconnected with some future one. The life of every man is a continued chain of incidents each link of which hangs upon the former. The transition from cause to effect from event to event is often carried on by secret steps which our foresight cannot divine and our sagacity is unable to trace. Evil may at some future period bring forth good, and good may bring forth evil both equally unexpected.
Joseph AddisonIt takes nearly as much ability to know how to profit by good advice as to know how to act for one's self.
Francois de La RochefoucauldWhen we are well we all have good advice for those who are ill.
Lucius Annaeus SenecaThere are good and bad times but our mood changes more often than our fortune.
Thomas CarlyleAll a woman needs is a good bath clean clothes and for her hair to be combed. These things she can do herself. I very seldom go to the hairdresser but when I do I just marvel.
Hedy LamarrLike the old soldier of the ballad I now close my military career and just fade away an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Goodbye.
Douglas MacArthurI would go to the deeps a hundred times to cheer a downcast spirit. It is good for me to have been afflicted that I might know how to speak a word in season to one that is weary.
Charles SpurgeonStop this attitude that older people ain't any good anymore! We're as good as we ever were - if we ever were any good.

Sai BabaEurope's the mayonnaise but America supplies the good old lobster.
David Herbert LawrenceBut as to women who can penetrate the real sufferings of their she condition? Man's very sympathy with their estate has much of selfishness and more suspicion. Their love their virtue beauty education but form good housekeepers to breed a nation.
Lord ByronThe good of other times let people state, I think it lucky I was born so late.
OvidPresident Obama clearly cannot run on his record. All he's offering is more of the same. That's not good. Look at the economy. It's stagnating. And so what they're now going to try and do is bring this campaign down to little things distractions distortions smear fear anger frustration.
Paul RyanEvery religion is good that teaches man to be good, and I know of none that instructs him to be bad.
Thomas PaineA policy is a temporary creed liable to be changed, but while it holds good it has got to be pursued with apostolic zeal.

Aldous HuxleyMoney is like muck not good except it be spread.
Francis BaconIf there is dissatisfaction with the status quo good. If there is ferment so much the better. If there is restlessness I am pleased. Then let there be ideas and hard thought and hard work. If man feels small let man make himself bigger.
Hubert H. HumphreyAll good things which exist are the fruits of originality.
John Stuart MillAny man may easily do harm but not every man can do good to another.
PlatoEnglish people don't have very good diction. In France you have to pronounce very particularly and clearly and learning French at an early age helped me enormously.
Vivien LeighHow is individual transformation to be achieved? There are some bad habits among individuals such as smoking drinking liquor meat eating and gambling. These bad habits not only degrade the individuals but also inflict hardships on their families. These bad habits have to be given up for the individual to manifest his inherent goodness.
Sai BabaSpiritual progress is right living good conduct moral behavior.
Sai BabaThe word "good" has many meanings. For example if a man were to shoot his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards I should call him a good shot but not necessarily a good man.

William ShakespeareNo good fish goes anywhere without a porpoise.
Lewis CarrollWell well Henry James is pretty good though he is of the nineteenth century and that glaringly.

Theodore RooseveltI'm not happy all the time and I wouldn't want to be because that would make me a shallow person. But I do try to find the good in everybody.
Dolly PartonGood fame is like fire, when you have kindled you may easily preserve it, but if you extinguish it you will not easily kindle it again.

Marcus AureliusIt is good news worthy of all acceptation, and yet not too good to be true.
Matthew HenryThe power to do good is also the power to do harm.

Paul McCartneyBeing entirely honest with oneself is a good exercise.
Sigmund FreudI am acquainted with no immaterial sensuality so delightful as good acting.
Lord ByronThe man of sensibility is too busy talking about his feelings to have time for good deeds.
Mason CooleyIf we live good lives the times are also good. As we are such are the times.
Saint AugustineI won't do something unless I can get at least two or three good laughs out of it. If I can't it's not gonna make the team.
Jerry SeinfeldIt is a good idea to "shop around" before you settle on a doctor. Ask about the condition of his Mercedes. Ask about the competence of his mechanic. Don't be shy! After all you're paying for it.
Dave BarryOld men are fond of giving good advice to console themselves for their inability to give bad examples.
Francois de La RochefoucauldIn a certain sense the Good is comfortless.
Franz KafkaOne ought to look a good deal at oneself before thinking of condemning others.
MoliereDon't be careless about yourselves--on the other hand not too careful. Live well but do not flaunt it. Laugh a little and teach your men to laugh--get good humor under fire--war is a game that's played with a smile. If you can't smile grin. If you can't grin keep out of the way till you can.
Winston ChurchillNothing is so good as it seems beforehand.
George EliotOne enemy can do more hurt than ten friends can do good.

Samuel ButlerParis is always a good idea.
Audrey HepburnThe wretched have no compassion they can do good only from strong principles of duty.
Samuel JohnsonI personally think it would be better if the NYSE remained as a neutral not-for-big-profit institution. The exchange has done a very good job over the centuries. It's one of the most important institutions in the world. The enemy of investment is activity.... I know the American investor will not be better off if volume doubles on the NYSE and I know the NYSE will be trying to figure out how to do that if it is trying to maximize its own earnings per share. GM or IBM will not earn more money if their stock turns over more actively but a for-profit NYSE will.
Warren BuffettOn the whole human beings want to be good but not too good and not quite all the time.
George OrwellNo one asks himself what good or benefit society derives from him. Start by rendering benefit to society.
