Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
I am confident that this legislature will rise above partisan bickering, especially after the public promises its members made last fall, and that it will demonstrate a high capacity for civil service.
Charles Edison

Erma Bombeck

Campbell Scott
Every now and then a man's mind is stretched by a new idea or sensation, and never shrinks back to its former dimensions.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
Bishop Berkeley destroyed this world in one volume octavo; and nothing remained, after his time, but mind; which experienced a similar fate from the hand of Mr. Hume in 1737.
Sydney Smith

Walt Alston
I like my players to be married and in debt. That's the way you motivate them.
Ernie Banks
Wit is the sudden marriage of ideas which, before their union, were not perceived to have any relation.
