The more tenaciously a thought is held, the more irrational it becomes. But it ain't necessarily  so.

Beware the boogie man in the dark corner, for he just may not exist.

Just showing up requires a level of optimism that the true pessimist is unwilling to give.

The difference between a million dollar idea and the worthless boasts of a crank is like the difference between a great joke and a terrible one -timing.

You da' man… No you da' man… 

The better the education, the more you know what you don't know – unless you're too stupid. Then you know everything.

It's one thing to act virtuously and not know any better, quite another to remain so when aware of the options.

Unmatched is the speed with which all illusions of growing affluence disappear into oblivion.

Don't look. It won't make you any richer.

“Statistics show that we lose more fools on this day than in all the other days of the year put together. This proves, by the number left in stock, that one Fourth of July per year is now inadequate, the country has grown so.”
