Love is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
Subject:  Love & Romance   
Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.
Subject:  Humor   
"Love" is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own... Jealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy.

A society that gets rid of all its troublemakers goes downhill.

When any government, or any church for that matter, undertakes to say to its subjects, This you may not read, this you must not see, this you are forbidden to know, the end result is tyranny and oppression no matter how holy the motives.

I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do.

One man's theology is another man's belly laugh.

Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat.

A long and wicked life followed by five minutes of perfect grace gets you into Heaven. An equally long life of decent living and good works followed by one outburst of taking the name of the Lord in vain - then have a heart attack at that moment and be damned for eternity. Is that the system?

If you disturb the patient at such times, he may break into tears or become violent. and, if you shake him, he bites.

Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.

Yield to temptation. It may not pass your way again.

Anyone who clings to the historically untrue -- and -- thoroughly immoral doctrine that violence never solves anything I would advise to conjure up the ghosts of Napoleon Bonaparte and the Duke of Wellington and let them debate it. The ghost of Hitler would referee. Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor; and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and their freedoms.

Don't ever become a pessimist... a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun, and neither can stop the march of events.

I don't see how an article of clothing can be indecent. A person, yes.

One man's "magic" is another man's engineering. "Supernatural" is a null word.

Of all the strange "crimes" that human beings have legislated of nothing, "blasphemy" is the most amazing - with "obscenity" and "indecent exposure" fighting it out for the second and third place.

May you live as long as you wish and love as long as you live.

The more you love, the more you can love--and the more intensely you love. Nor is there any limit on how many you can love. If a person had time enough, he could love all of that majority who are decent and just.

One could write a history of science in reverse by assembling the solemn pronouncements of highest authority about what could not be done and could never happen.
