#Hoping For The Best Quotes

“I read hard, or not at all; never skimming, never turning aside to merely inciting books; and Plato, Aristotle, Butler, Thucydides, Sterne, Jonathan Edwards, have passed like the iron atoms of the blood into my mental constitution.”
“I played T-Mac. I cooked him. Roasted him. Wasn't even close.”
“I scream, you scream, we all scream... for the truth.”
“The art of not playing in tempo--one has to learn it. And the art of not playing what is written on the printed paper.”
“One man's pointlessness is another's barbed satire.”
“Reality is what you believe it to be. It's what you put your thought and energy into, because your hands physically manifest thought. So your world becomes what you feel and what you think.”
“Our whole life can go on in observation of the laws of nature, if we gain dominion over our desires from the beginning and if we do not kill, by various means of a perverse art, the human offspring, born according to the designs of divine providence; for these women who, if order to hide their immorality, use abortive drugs which expel the child completely dead, abort at the same time their own human feelings.”
