GEOGRAPHER, n. A chap who can tell you offhand the difference between the outside of the world and the inside.

Habeam, geographer of wide reknown, Native of Abu-Keber's ancient town, In passing thence along the river Zam To the adjacent village of Xelam, Bewildered by the multitude of roads, Got lost, lived long on migratory toads, Then from exposure miserably died, And grateful travelers bewailed their guide. --Henry Haukhorn

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Good works never languish for want of funds; the Lord will come to their rescue. Only it may take some time; do not lose heart... You should not collect money in devious ways. Help should come from pious hearts, from well-earned money, from persons who know and appreciate the purpose for which they give. That is why I oppose all benefit shows, where you tempt people with a dance or a drama or a film and collect money for your pet plan.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba (1926-)

HANGMAN, n. An officer of the law charged with duties of the highest dignity and utmost gravity, and held in hereditary disesteem by a populace having a criminal ancestry. In some of the American States his functions are now performed by an electrician, as in New Jersey, where executions by electricity have recently been ordered --the first instance known to this lexicographer of anybody questioning the expediency of hanging Jerseymen.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Howard Dean is not the first politician to distort facts in his own interests. But many activists in the party he now leads are puzzled over what he thinks he is accomplishing politically. Is it good politics to contend that Iraq was better off under Saddam Hussein than even a flawed Islamic republic? Does it make sense politically to tell Americans that more than 1,800 troops have died to make life worse for half of Iraq's population?

Robert Novak

However great a man's fear of life, suicide remains the courageous act, the clear-headed act of a mathematician. The suicide has judged by the laws of chance -- so many odds against one that to live will be more miserable than to die. His sense of mathematics is greater than his sense of survival. But think how a sense of survival must clamor to be heard at the last moment, what excuses it must present of a totally unscientific nature.

Graham Greene (1904-1991)

Huge knots of sea-weed hung upon the jagged and pointed stones, trembling in every breath of wind; and the green ivy clung mournfully round the dark and ruined battlements. Behind it rose the ancient castle, its towers roofless, and its massive walls crumbling away, but telling us proudly of its own might and strength, as when, seven hundred years ago, it rang with the clash of arms, or resounded with the noise of feasting and revelry.

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

I do not think it is any benefit for artists or fans to have all the new, wide distribution channels in the online world controlled by those who have controlled the old, narrower ones, ... This is especially true if they achieve that control by leveraging their dominance in content or conduit space in an anticompetitive way to control the new, independent music services that are attempting to enhance the consumer's experience of music.

Orrin Hatch

I don't know what (indefinite) means, but he won't play the next game (at Colorado State on Saturday). We may make a decision on the length next week, and we may not. It might just be ongoing for now. Kyle is a wonderful young man. I have two sons of my own. This is my family at San Diego State – 13 players, managers, coaches. We have to know when to hug, when to discipline, when to show love and then move on. That's what we will do.

Steve Fisher

I don't know. That's so far down the road, I couldn't say. This is a decision that I don't have to make for a year and a half. So I'm doing some of the practical things you need to do to keep that option open. But my first priority is serving the people of our state. That's what I care about, and that's why I'm here in Terre Haute today. So if that's a decision I do make - where - I guess we'll have to decide that if that time arrives.

Evan Bayh

I don't think I've ever written anything even remotely naturalistic. The closest probably would be seen as 'Frankie and Johnny,' and that's only 'cause they eat a sandwich and make an omelet in act two. But it's a romantic fairy tale, and I'm very aware of that. I don't think it helps the actors in my plays to lose themselves in the reality of talking to another person. A good McNally actor always knows he's in a play with an audience.

Terrence McNally (1939-)

I feel it necessary to make these points clear because of the references to my firm in the Mayor's article, ... Further references to my firm in a manner which clearly reflect intent to throw blame in my direction will not be tolerated .... Placing into issue this firm's competence may well serve to waive the City's privilege with respect to documents in our possession which are necessary to demonstrate the falsity of those assertions.

Charles Green

I had big plans for him to show what he can do. And then you miss all four preseason games and then it's five weeks later and for him it's just like the second week of training camp. Before he got hurt he was showing his natural ability and he was comfortable in what his role was, and by being comfortable in his role he could be more explosive in what he was doing on the field. But then we had that setback and we had to start all over.

Stan Hixon

I like Brian, and I don't want to say that the fact that he wasn't outgoing was the reason it didn't work for him here. Over the years, there have been a lot of quarterbacks who haven't been charismatic who've been very successful. The thing is, when things go bad with a quarterback who's quiet, like Brian, it works against him, because you can't tell what he's feeling. People start scratching their heads, and it's tough to rally them.

Steve Beuerlein

I look forward to packing the van with my art and my display tent and heading off to a show. It's a great experience. I love the input, the advice and the comments of the people strolling the show grounds. I still get very excited, but in a humble way, when someone buys one of my pieces. They not only bought a piece of my art but they are taking home a part of me. It's a nice feeling to know that someone appreciates what you have done.

Yolonda Pelz

I said, 'Well I'm wrong. You can't tell them about it, they'll kill you.' He said nothing ... then I went through the questionnaire and I began to read him each question and read him the results of each question verbatim. And he was silent during virtually the entire process. ... And then I said, 'So you just can't do this.' And he said, 'It just won't fly. It just won't fly.' And I said, 'They're not ready for it,' meaning the voters.

Dick Morris
