"We are all ready to be savage in some cause. The difference between a good man and a bad one is the choice of the cause."

William James

“If you look at life one way, there is always cause for alarm”
Elizabeth Bowen

“There are more things to alarm us than to harm us, and we suffer more often in apprehension than reality.”

Seneca

"What is reality? I am a plaster doll; I pose with eyes that cut open without landfall or nightfall upon some shellacked and grinning person,
eyes that open, blue, steel, and close. Am I approximately an I. Magnin transplant?"
Anne Sexton

“It was like a heart transplant. We tried to implant college in him but his head rejected it.”

Barry Switzer

"A dying man needs to die, as a sleepy man needs to sleep, and there comes a time when it is wrong, as well as useless, to resist."

Stewart Alsop

"It's so curious: one can resist tears and 'behave' very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer... and everything collapses."

Sidonie Gabrielle Colette

“Humanity is the keystone that holds nations and men together. When that collapses, the whole structure crumbles. This is as true of baseball teams as any other pursuit in life.”

Connie Mack

"My life needs editing."

Mort Sahl

“God has editing rights over our prayers. He will... edit them, correct them, bring them in line with His will and then hand them back to us to be resubmitted.”
