New Home for Old Quotes

Here's a list of some of my favorite quotes, which used to appear on my FB page. I'll update it periodically.

 

"When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do?" - John Maynard Keynes (attributed) "And there was a time when all I wanted was my ice cream colder and a little cream soda. oh well, oh well....And a wooden box, and an alley full of rocks was all I had to care about. Oh well, oh well." - Jack White In religion and politics, people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second hand, and without examination. - Mark Twain When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bustling with prejudices and motivated by pride and vanity. - Dale Carnegie “We're all busy little bees, full of stings, making honey day and night" - Bette Davis as 'Margo Channing' "Now it is a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best you very often get it" -Somerset Maugham "Revenge without respect to the example and profit to come is a triumph, or glorying in the hurt of another, tending to no end (for the end is always somewhat to come); and glorying to no end is vain-glory, ...and tendeth to the introduction of war" - Thomas Hobbes "If there is a complaint, fill out the proper form and mail it to the hospital in which you were born" - The Onion Kafka Airport story "If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich" - JFK
