Standing ovations have become far too commonplace. What we need are ovations where the audience members all punch and kick one another.
George Carlin
I don't care to belong to a club that accepts people like me as members.
Groucho Marx
In fact, the best thing we could do on taxes for all Americans is to simplify the individual tax code. This will be a tough job, but members of both parties have expressed an interest in doing this, and I am prepared to join them.
Barack Obama

Barack Obama

Herbert Spencer
If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, the mother and the teacher.
Abdul Kalam
We must conceive of this whole universe as one commonwealth of which both gods and men are members.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
Collective fear stimulates herd instinct, and tends to produce ferocity toward those who are not regarded as members of the herd.
Bertrand Russell
I wonder if other dogs think poodles are members of a weird religious cult.
Rita Rudner
The English think they are free. They are free only during the election of members of parliament.
Jean-Jacques Rousseau
We have the right as individuals to give away as much of our own money as we please in charity; but as members of Congress we have no right to appropriate a dollar of the public money.
Davy Crockett
An open society is a society which allows its members the greatest possible degree of freedom in pursuing their interests compatible with the interests of others.
