They memorize everything and learn... nothing..

Hear the truth from whomever says it.

I don't consider myself a goody-goody, but I like to be perceived as classy..

Because they knew each other's thoughts, they even quarrelled without speaking..

Although I don't take myself very seriously, I do take my work extraordinarily seriously..

God gave the day, God gave the strength..

Too many historical writers are the votaries of cults, which, by definition are dedicated to whitewashing warts and hanging halos..

I didn't really sign up to be a celebrity, I only signed up to be a writer..

Always do your best. Somebody is watching you..

Patience puts up with those you'd like to put down.

We learn nothing by being right..

As George Costanza would say, when they're applauding, stop..

Sit up straight, listen and participate..

We study history in order to intervene in the course of history..

The one who is happy, that's the one who is right..

We find ourselves only by looking to what we’re not..

Let science tell us what and how. Let religion tell us who and why..

Do for yourself, for no one else will..

Life did not stop, and one had to live..

Telling someone they're wrong is not the same as leading or inspiring them to do what's right..

All great acheivements require time..
