3 December 2020 William Hazlitt There are no rules for friendship. It must be left to itself. We cannot force it any more than love.
3 December 2020 Walt Disney I have been up against tough competition all my life. I wouldn’t know how to get along without it.
3 December 2020 Jasper Carrott Laughter is the best medicine – unless you’re diabetic, then insulin comes pretty high on the list.
3 December 2020 Alton Brown I like television. I still believe that television is the most powerful form of communication on Earth – I just hate what is being done with it.
3 December 2020 Paul Simon Having a track record to live up to and the history of successes had become a hindrance. It becomes harder to break out of what people expect you to do.
3 December 2020 Philip Levine The irony is, going to work every day became the subject of probably my best poetry.
3 December 2020 Loretta Young I can’t imagine dating a boy, meeting him only outside the home. What’s a home and family for if it’s not the center of one’s life?

3 December 2020 Demi Moore For the moment I prefer to be a beautiful woman of my age than try desperately to look 30.
3 December 2020 Tony Campolo Sigmund Freud was the apostle of disbelief. He was the one who made psychoanalysis a part of our culture, and in so doing he kicked out a flying buttress that had been essential for holding up our cathedral of faith.
3 December 2020 Annie Lennox Feminism is a word that I identify with. The term has become synonymous with vitriolic man-hating but it needs to come back to a place where both men and women can embrace it. It is particularly important for women in developing countries.
3 December 2020 Ambrose Bierce It is evident that skepticism, while it makes no actual change in man, always makes him feel better.
3 December 2020 Edsger Dijkstra The question of whether a computer can think is no more interesting than the question of whether a submarine can swim.
3 December 2020 Adam Smith As soon as the land of any country has all become private property, the landlords, like all other men, love to reap where they never sowed, and demand a rent even for its natural produce.
3 December 2020 Avril Lavigne To understand me, you have to meet me and be around me. And then only if I’m in a good mood – don’t meet me in a bad mood.
3 December 2020 Peter Singer Ancient recipients of instant news probably couldn’t do very much about it, for instance. Xerxes would still need three months to get his army together, and he might not get home for years.
3 December 2020 Nikki Haley South Carolinians are strong, independently-minded people. At the end of the day, they make their own decisions. And I respect them for that. And I welcome that. And I told him that from the very beginning.
3 December 2020 Rand Paul Does the owner of the restaurant own his restaurant? Or does the government own his restaurant?
3 December 2020 Chris Isaak My mom and dad played this music all the time when I was growing up, so to me songs by Jerry Lee and Fats Domino are the classics, they’re the best songs ever.
3 December 2020 A. R. Ammons I am grateful for – though I can’t keep up with – the flood of articles, theses, and textbooks that mean to share insight concerning the nature of poetry.
3 December 2020 Billy Joel We are living in a time when American popular music is finally being recognized as one of our most successful exports. The demand is huge.
