Who would not give up wit for power and beauty?
From Mason Cooley
Listening to people keeps them entertained.
Logic and fact keep interfering with the easy flow of conversation.
Most people regard getting their way as a matter of simple justice.
Young poets bewail the passing of love; old poets, the passing of time. There is surprisingly little difference.
An omnipotent God is the only being with no reason to lie.
To understand a literary style, consider what it omits.
The gods are watching, but idly, yawning.
The passions are the same in every conflict, large or small.
Families in which nothing is ever discussed usually have a lot not to discuss.
