• When I was young I had so many inferiority complexes. I had an inferiority complex because I didn’t go to university. I had an inferiority complex because I didn’t train. Then it gets tiring. And you do get bored of it.

• What is your substance, whereof are you made, That millions of strange shadows on you tend? Since everyone hath every one, one shade, And you, but one, can every shadow lend. Describe Adonis, and the counterfeit Is poorly imitated after you. On Helen’s cheek all art of beauty set, And you in Grecian tires are painted new. Speak of the spring and foison of the year; The one doth shadow of your beauty show, The other as your bounty doth appear, And you in every blessèd shape we know. In all external grace you have some part, But you like none, none you, for constant heart.

  William Shakespeare

• It's like those eerie stories nurses tell,
  Of how some actor on a stage played Death,
  With pasteboard crown, sham orb and tinselled dart,
  And called himself the monarch of the world;
  Then, going in the tire-room afterward,
  Because the play was done, to shift himself,
  Got touched upon the sleeve familiarly,
  The moment he had shut the closet door,
  By Death himself. Thus God might touch a Pope
  At unawares, ask what his baubles mean,
  And whose part he presumed to play just now.
  Best be yourself, imperial, plain and true!

• It is evident that many wars are fought over resources which are now becoming increasingly scarce. If we conserved our resources better, fighting over them would not occur ... protecting the global environment is directly related to securing peace. Those of us who understand the complex concept of the environment have the burden to act. We must not tire, we must not give up, we must persist.

• You know the green grifters have no argument when they start raising the 'no blood for oil' cry on the blogs.

• Most people tire of a lecture in ten minutes; clever people can do it in five. Sensible people never go to lectures at all. But the people who do go to a lecture and who get tired of it, presently hold it as a sort of grudge against the lecturer personally. In reality his sufferings are worse than theirs.

• If the time comes when our culture tires of the endless homicidal feuds, despairs of the use of force and war as a means of bringing peace, becomes discontent with the half-lives that its members are living - only then will our culture seriously look for alternatives.

• Most of all, I like the quiet, rounded tugs. They remind me of women. As I watch them work I see them as kindly, no-fuss boats which patiently tend much larger, grander and more important-looking ships. They make sure these ships get to the right place as the right time, shepherding them with a pull or a push as needed. Their power is not immediately obvious but it is there - inside. I watch them a lot and never tire of seeing their unsung but absolutely essential work. The silent strong women of the sea.

• Apologists for activist government never tire of telling us that the
  benevolent state is our protector and that without it wed be at the mercy of
  monsters. It is about time that we understood that the U.S. government does
  more to endanger the American people than any imagined monsters around the
  world…by pursuing its Grand Foreign Policy of meddling anywhere and
  everywhere.
