You marvel at the economy and this choice of words. How many ways can you describe the sky and the moon? After Sylvia Plath, what can you say?
Toni Morrison
For how many things, which for our own sake we should never do, do we perform for the sake of our friends.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Every man can tell how many goats or sheep he possesses, but not how many friends.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Don't ever forget two things I'm going to tell you. One, don't believe everything that's written about you. Two, don't pick up too many checks.
Babe Ruth
The next time some academics tell you how important diversity is, ask how many Republicans there are in their sociology department.
Thomas Sowell

John Keats
Many people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so.
Bertrand Russell
The megalomaniac differs from the narcissist by the fact that he wishes to be powerful rather than charming, and seeks to be feared rather than loved. To this type belong many lunatics and most of the great men of history.
Bertrand Russell
Many people when they fall in love look for a little haven of refuge from the world, where they can be sure of being admired when they are not admirable, and praised when they are not praiseworthy.

Michelangelo
I'm in a position of feeling secure enough so that I can say what I think is right and if so many people think it's wrong that I get fired, well, I've got enough to eat.
Andy Rooney
We need people who can actually do things. We have too many bosses and too few workers.
Andy Rooney
To produce a mighty book, you must choose a mighty theme. No great and enduring volume can ever be written on the flea, though many there be that have tried it.
Herman Melville
There are many men of principle in both parties in America, but there is no party of principle.
Alexis de Tocqueville
History is a gallery of pictures in which there are few originals and many copies.
Alexis de Tocqueville
Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they know it, time runs out.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
Many ideas grow better when transplanted into another mind than in the one where they sprung up.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
