Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

You can fool too many of the people too much of the time.: James Thurber (1894 - 1961)
Few people think more than two or three times a year; I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week.: George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)
I've been traveling so much, I haven't had time to grow it.: Bob Horner, Atlanta Braves third baseman, on why he hadn't grown a beard
If crime went down 100%, it would still be 50 times higher than it shoud be.: Councilman John Bowman commenting on the high crime in Washington

The time is come - it now is - when we ought to hear about the duties and responsibilities of our citizenship. America's future depends upon her accepting and demonstrating God's government.: Reverend Peter Marshall, on being elected Chaplain of the U. S. Senate in January 1947
I see music as the augmentation of a split second of time.: Erin Cleary
...exaggerated turns of speech conceal mediocre affections: as if the fulness of the soul might not sometimes overflow in the emptiest of metaphors, since no one, ever, can give the exact measurements of his needs, nor of his conceptions, nor of his sufferings, and the human word is like a cracked cauldron upon which we beat out melodies fit for making bears dance when we are trying to move the stars to pity.: Gustave Flaubert (1821 - 1880), "Madame Bovary", ch. 12
Man does not live by words alone, despite the fact that he sometimes has to eat them.: Adlai E. Stevenson Jr. (1900 - 1965)
There was a blithe certainty that came from first comprehending the full Einstein field equations, arabesques of Greek letters clinging tenuously to the page, a gossamer web. They seemed insubstantial when you first saw them, a string of squiggles. Yet to follow the delicate tensors as they contracted, as the superscripts paired with subscripts, collapsing mathematically into concrete classical entities-- potential; mass; forces vectoring in a curved geometry-- that was a sublime experience. The iron fist of the real, inside the velvet glove of airy mathematics.: Gregory Benford - Timescape
Dying is not romantic, and death is not a game which will soon be over... Death is not anything...death is not...It's the absence of presence, nothing more...the endless time of never coming back...a gap you can't see, and when the wind blows through it, it makes no sound...: Tom Stoppard (1937 - )
