If your life had lyrics, would they be any good?

Remember: the time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself. Life's cruelest irony.

Handmade presents are scary because they reveal that you have too much free time.

You can't fake creativity, competence, or sexual arousal.

Fondue sets, martini shakers and juicing machines: three things the world could live completely without.

If a building looks better under construction than it does when finished, then it's a failure.

Eagles are seagulls with a good hairdo.

We decided that the French could never write user-friendly software because they're so rude.

Is there anything in the world more annoyingly creepy than an unspoken dress code?

When we constantly ask for miracles, we're unraveling the fabric of the world. A world of continuous miracles would not be a world, it would be a cartoon.

The same love that made me laugh makes my cry.

Inequalities of Fate very curious. Should like, on this account, to believe in Reincarnation.

Everything is the way it is because everything was the way it was

People really do think they have to choose between high stress and high reward jobs, and low stress and low reward jobs.

You never forget your first love.
