You'll remember Dr. Rice said that several times: It was not a warning about the place and the method and the time - it was a general warning. And that points out the imperfection if you would of our intelligence.

I've always felt that a person's intelligence is directly reflected by the number of conflicting points of view he can entertain simultaneously on the same topic.

Imagination is as vital to any advance in science as learning and precision are essential for starting points.

Conservative humor is frankly harder than liberal humor. You get points for just being liberal. You can get more points if you make fun of your own side sometimes.

I believe that economists put decimal points in their forecasts to show they have a sense of humor.

Illogical thinkers throw names and slurs around because they have no arguments with which to rebut their opponents. Rational people have to keep hammering their points home.

I had three points I wanted to make: That not everybody in Hollywood is on the left that Obama has broken a lot of the promises he made when he took office and that the people should feel free to get rid of any politician who's not doing a good job. But I didn't make up my mind exactly what I was going to say until I said it.

If I am walking with two other men each of them will serve as my teacher. I will pick out the good points of the one and imitate them and the bad points of the other and correct them in myself.

God appoints our graces to be nurses to other men's weaknesses.

What appeals to me? There are things points of view uses of the language habits of dress ways of thought and believing that came to me from my grandparents and came to them from theirs. Things that are of good use in any situation no matter what the future may hold.
