A little optimism
1. Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence. - Henry Louis Mencken
2. If you are not criticized, you may not be doing much. - Donald H. Rumsfeld
3. There's one way to find out if a man is honest - ask him. If he says, "Yes," you know he is a crook. - Groucho Marx
4. That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong. - William J. H. Boetcker
5. If you don't think your life is more important than someone elses then sign your donor card and kill yourself. - House, House M.D.
6. For me, music and life are all about style. - Miles Davis
7. It is a good rule in life never to apologize. The right sort of people do not want apologies, and the wrong sort take a mean advantage of them. - P. G. Wodehouse
8. I could not become anything: neither bad nor good, neither a scoundrel nor an honest man, neither a hero nor an insect. And now I am eking out my days in my corner, taunting myself with the bitter and entirely useless consolation that an intelligent man cannot seriously become anything; that only a fool can become something. - Fyodor Dostoevsky, 'Notes From Underground'
9. Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company. - Mark Twain
10. I would rather have a mind opened by wonder than one closed by belief. - Gerry Spence
