-- Cornelius Vanderbilt

“And the sun on the wall of her room, the block of sun with all the tiny flying things in it. When she was little she thought they were the souls of dead insects, still buzzing in the light.”
“I'm vain enough to want do a movie again, but right now more roles are the last thing on my list.”
“Barometer, n.: An ingenious instrument which indicates what kind of weather we are having.”
“I grew up when comics were only sold in food markets and news stands, so the direct market is vital to me. The best way to make it stronger is if everybody buys my comics in multiple copies before they buy any others.”
“The boss inspires fear; the leader inspires enthusiasm. The boss says 'I'; The leader says 'We'.”
“The full implications of feminism will evolve over time, as we organize, experiment, think, analyze, and revise our ideas and strategies in light of our experiences. No theory emerges in full detail overnight; the dominant theories of our day have expanded and changed over many decades. That it will take time should not discourage us. That we might fail to pursue our ideas - given the enormous need for them in society today - is unconscionable.”
“I don't disagree with anything I've ever said. Why in God's name would I disagree with something I've said?”
“I hope all of you will inherit and carry forward the fine traditions of China's religious circle in patriotism and religious piety and in upholding peace.”
