Nothing can be more real, or concern us more, than our own sentiments of pleasure and uneasiness; and if these be favourable to vi...rtue and unfavourable to vice, no more can be requisite to the regulation of our conduct and behavior.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
I am a cowboy in the boat of Ra. Lord of the lash, the Loup Garou Kid. Half breed son of Pisces and... Aquarius. I hold the souls of men in my pot. I do the dirty boogie with scorpions. I make the bulls keep still and was the first swinger to grape the taste.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Who could not be moved by the sight of that poor, demoralized rabble, outwitted, outflanked, outmaneuvered by the U.S. military? Y...et, given time, I think the press will bounce back.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
It would be enough for me to have the system of a jury of twelve versus the system of one judge as a basis for preferring the U.S.... to the Soviet Union.... I would prefer the country you can leave to the country you cannot.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
It's not the possibility of Stalinism in the U.S. that's worrying me, it's the fact that the Stalinist C.P. seems doomed to fail a...nd to bring down with it all the humanitarian tendencies I personally believe in--all the while acting as a mould on which its obverse the fascist mentality is made--and this recent massacre is certainly a sign of Stalinism's weakness not of its strength. None of that has anything to do with Marx's work--but it certainly does influence one's attitude towards a given political party.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
[Gen. William S.] "Rosecrans [at Chicamauga] has been badly beaten!"... How these blows strike my heart!... I suffer from these bl...ows more than I did from the loss of my sweet little boy. But I suffer less now than I did from Bull Run, or even Fredericksburg.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
What a magnificent land and race is this Britain! Everything about them is of better quality than the corresponding thing in the U....S.... Yet I believe (or suspect) that ours is eventually the bigger destiny, if we can only succeed in living up to it.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
Thank God I'm over the hill. The only heat I have left comes from hot flashes, my promiscuity is confined to the words "one size f...its all," and I buy my white cotton unmentionables at Boadicea's Retreat, not Victoria's Secret. None of the things men do to women could possibly happen to me now unless the U.S. is invaded by one of those new Russian republics whose soldiers aren't fussy.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »

"There?" he asked and pointed-- With his stick, reader, with his stick. S-T-I-C-K, gentle reader. A roughly hewn stick brande...d with the owner's name: Felix Wohlfahrt from Zwickau. With his stickau he pointed, gentle or lowly reader, with his stick! You know what a stick is, don't you? Well, that's what he pointed with--a stick--and got into the car, and left the stick there, upon getting out again, naturally--for the car temporarily belonged to him. I in fact noted that "quiet satisfaction." An artist's memory--what a curious thing! Beats all other kinds, I imagine. "There?"Mhe asked and pointed with his stick. Never in my life was I so astonished.LESSATTRIBUTION DETAIL »
