3 December 2020 Bill Maher We are a nation that is unenlightened because of religion. I do believe that. I think religion stops people from thinking. I think it justified crazies.
3 December 2020 Benny Green Ray had so much love of life and the music. He had so much integrity. He treated the music with so much dignity and respect. I spent four and a half years as a sideman with Ray Brown’s trio. Music was his life, more so than anyone I could mention.
3 December 2020 Peter Jennings I think you can be cynical about religion on occasion, and certainly skeptical about the degree to which some people use religion to manipulate other people.
3 December 2020 Rutherford B. Hayes I am less disposed to think of a West Point education as requisite for this business than I was at first. Good sense and energy are the qualities required.
3 December 2020 Leland Stanford The rights of one sex, political and otherwise, are the same as those of the other sex, and this equality of rights ought to be fully recognized.
3 December 2020 Joseph Butler Happiness or satisfaction consists only in the enjoyment of those objects which are by nature suited to our several particular appetites, passions, and affections.
3 December 2020 Tony Snow That said, ID does not qualify as science because it gives us nothing to test or measure. Science requires replicable tests involving measurable variables.
3 December 2020 Joel Silver Well, I haven’t really been able to shoot in California for a while. Little movies yeah, but the big movies we can’t shoot there. It’s just a shame that Arnold Schwarzenegger can’t deliver on this level.
3 December 2020 Martin Yan I’ve never considered myself a celebrity or even part of the entertainment business. I’m a cooking teacher.
3 December 2020 Steven Patrick Morrissey I mean, death is a serious thing, certainly not to be sneezed at.
3 December 2020 Willie Aames We’re seeing how the videos translate to the live shows and how the technology is really reaching kids.
3 December 2020 Emir Kusturica I’ve been around some very famous people, but no one has the effect Maradona has people tremble in his presence.
3 December 2020 A. N. Wilson I very much dislike the intolerance and moralism of many Christians, and feel more sympathy with Honest Doubters than with them.
3 December 2020 Walter Kaufmann To try to fashion something from suffering, to relish our triumphs, and to endure defeats without resentment: all that is compatible with the faith of a heretic.
3 December 2020 Donald Wills Douglas When you design it, think how you would feel if you had to fly it! Safety first!
3 December 2020 Ethel Waters I wanted to be with the kind of people I’d grown up with, but you can’t go back to them and be one of them again, no matter how hard you try.
3 December 2020 Elbert Hubbard Little minds are interested in the extraordinary great minds in the commonplace.
3 December 2020 Jean Dujardin I like the hot-cold, the sugar-salt, being able to play over-the-top and dramatic things – in the same film. Just as in my life, I can be very funny and at other times almost extinguished.
3 December 2020 Jack Nicklaus He’s going to be around a long, long time, if his body holds up. That’s always a concern with a lot of players because of how much they play. A lot of guys can’t handle it. But it looks like he can.
3 December 2020 Sammy Davis, Jr. I was so opposed to the war in Vietnam that I initially refused President Nixon’s urgings for me to go there.
3 December 2020 Peter Guber Most young people haven’t used their storytelling skills since they were 8 or 9 or 10 and wanted to persuade Mom and Dad to take them to the ball game.
3 December 2020 James F. Byrnes It will give them the opportunity to show themselves worthy of the respect and friendship of peace-loving nations, and in time, to take an honorable place among members of the United Nations.
3 December 2020 Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. It has been well said that a hungry man is more interested in four sandwiches than four freedoms.
3 December 2020 Vincent Van Gogh Poetry surrounds us everywhere, but putting it on paper is, alas, not so easy as looking at it.
3 December 2020 George Eliot It will never rain roses: when we want to have more roses we must plant more trees.
