Mitt romney looks like a guy modeling briefs on a package of underwear ... he looks like a guy who goes to the restroom when the check comes ... he looks like a guy who would run a seminar on condo flipping ... he looks like he is the closer at a cadillac dealership.... he looks like that guy on the golf course in the levitra commercial.

We know, southern men declare that their slaves are better off than hired laborers amongst us. how little they know, whereof they speak! there is no permanent class of hired laborers amongst us. twenty-five years ago, i was a hired laborer. the hired laborer of yesterday, labors on his own account today; and will hire others to labor for him tomorrow.

One may enter the literary parlor via just about any door, be it the prison door, the madhouse door, or the brothel door. there is but one door one may not enter it through, which is the child room door. the critics will never forgive you such. the great rudyard kipling is one of a number of people to have suffered from this. i keep wondering to myself what this peculiar contempt towards anything related to childhood is all about.

My office walls are covered with autographs of famous writers - it's what my children call my 'dead author wall.' i have signatures from mark twain, earnest hemingway, jack london, harriett beecher stowe, pearl buck, charles dickens, rudyard kipling, alfred, lord tennyson, to name a few.

In the bleak midwinter frosty wind made moan, earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone; snow had fallen, snow on snow, snow on snow, in the bleak midwinter, long ago.

Aside from higher considerations, charity often operates as a vastly wise and prudent principle-a great safeguard to its possessor. men have committed murder for jealousy's sake, and anger's sake, and hatred's sake, and selfishness' sake, and spiritual pride's sake; but no man that ever i heard of, ever committed a diabolical murder for sweet charity's sake. mere self-interest, then, if no better motive can be enlisted, should, especially with high-tempered men, prompt all beings to charity and philanthropy.

Gaze not on beauty too much, lest it blast thee; nor too long, lest it blind thee; nor too near, lest it burn thee. if thou like it, it deceives thee; if thou love it, it disturbs thee; if thou hunt after it, it destroys thee. if virtue accompany it, it is the heart's paradise; if vice associate it, it is the soul's purgatory. it is the wise man's bonfire, and the fool's furnace.
Beauty Wise Heart
My friends, when i was young, were always older than i was, and i've always liked them. and i love old men and old ladies, really. but i've known more elderly men, like max beerbohm, like beranard berenson, like somerset maugham, winston churchill-i'd put him first, anyway-what they say is so wise and so good. they know what they're talking about.

A wise man in china asked his gardener to plant a shrub. the gardener objected that it only flowered once in a hundred years. "in that case," said the wise man, "plant it immediately." [on the importance of fundamental research.]
Wise Wisdom Science
There is nothing so easy as to be wise for others; a species of prodigality, by-the-by - for such wisdom is wholly wasted.
