Bertrand Russel

What a man believes upon grossly insufficient evidence is an index into his desires -- desires of which he himself is often unconscious. If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way.

Mason Locke Weems.

Gareth Peirce

We've re-emphasized our concerns that this inquiry go from the bottom to the top and leave no stone unturned.

Weary with toil, I haste me to my bed The dear repose for limbs with travel tired; But then begins a journey in my head To work my mind, when body's work's expir'd: For then my thoughts-from far where I abide- Intend a zealous pilgrimage to thee, And keep my drooping eyelids open wide, Looking on darkness which the blind do see: Save that my soul's imaginary sight Presents thy shadow to my sightless view, Which, like a jewel hung in ghastly night, Makes black night beauteous and her old face new. Lo! thus, by day my limbs, by night my mind, For thee, and for myself no quiet find.

We've averaging 61 points per game, but the thing that makes me the proudest about this team is its defense. We've held teams to an average of 31 points per game. A lot of players get to play (as a result of big leads), and that means the kids on the bench are doing a good job defensively as well.

Sofia Boutella

When I was little, I went to the Sahara desert and met an older woman with beautiful earrings that came all the way down to her stomach. She told me, 'For us Tuareg, jewelry is not meant for decoration. It absorbs negative energy that comes your way.' So think twice when you buy a vintage ring!

So we really started a quest to look for an ultimate reading light.

Paul DePodesta

I moved from Moscow to Rome with my family and two bicycles in 1998, and spent a lot of that year- and the next - obsessed, I am sorry to admit, with the bicycles.

Guy Ritchie

We split all the bills 50-50. So what? That's perfectly normal, isn't it?

David Robbins

Daniel Hope

Mike Pelfrey

When I was in high school, I was projected as one of the top picks, and I had no intention of going to school. But, I had a bad senior year and I fell.

Bill Lovette

We're making this investment to help meet continued, strong demand for refrigerated and pre-cooked bacon.

Norman Blake

When I was a kid I listened to a lot of punk music, but then along came Orange Juice, ... They really broadened my musical perspective. They were self-deprecating and had a great sense of humor.

You don't know what that's going to sound like; you just do it because the urge is there.

Abbie Letz

We're more confident and believe we can win every game we play. A rematch sounds really good right now.

Wayne Coyne

We remixed them in 5.1, which doesn't sound like much, but let me tell you it's really a crazy, complicated thing to take these things that you did almost 15 years ago and revisit 'em in this format that only became available a couple years ago. A lot of bands can't do that because they don't have their own recordings. But we've always recorded ourselves, so it's a matter of me just going to the back room and grabbing the tapes and sort of putting them back on the reel. It's a weird treat.

Zeb Simon

We're so sound on defense that we didn't feel we needed to blitz to get the type of pressure we needed, you know, to get the great underneath coverage we got from our secondary.

Through spiritual maturity you will see new ways to avoid unnecessary suffering; wiser ways to endure unavoidable hardships with grace, and opportunities to turn your pain into lessons of service and healing for others.

A miracle is happening in your life; the miracle of pain is transforming you to your highest self.

Thomas Merton

True encounter with Christ liberates something within us, a power we did not know we had, a capacity to grow and change.

I've never really separated out the spiritual and the secular.

Alan Jay Lerner

On a clear day, rise and look around you and you'll see who you are on a clear day, how it will astound you that the glow of your being outshines every star!

I'm not super nostalgic for friendships I've lost along the way. I feel like, if they were truly meaningful and really special, they would still exist. I think we grow and change, and that's okay.

Katie Aselton

What I get really excited about are movies that I connect with emotionally. 'Deliverance' was on TV, and they don't really make movies like that anymore, just simple and scary. The truly scary thing is, 'I'm going to threaten your life, I'm going to threaten the people you love. What are you going to do about it?'

Elaine Elliott

What they really proved is that they absolutely belong, this is truly a Final Four team. We're so proud that the Utah name is going to be up there with the best of them, forever enshrined by what they've done.

Marcia Wieder

When we are doing what we love, we don't care about time. For at least at that moment, time doesn't exist and we are truly free.

Kevin Drew

When we handed this record in, it confused a lot of people, even within the band. That's what I love about it -- I just find it this big, beautiful mess. Sometimes, albums should be experiments, and people who truly understand us know that's all we were doing from the get-go.

Jay Feaster

What has happened in the past is truly ancient history. Now the objective is to come in here and have a solid training camp. ... We can't afford to get caught up in the hype. It's about having to do it again. You can't rely on what you did 18 months ago.

Jillian Messenger

We are getting better ever game. The other coaches are telling us that, the umpires are telling us that, that we're coming around and we truly are.
