My latest favorites are this set:
Only in men's imagination does every truth find an effective and undeniable existence. Imagination, not invention, is the supreme master of art as of life.


The mind of man is capable of anything - because everything is in it, all the past as well as all the future.


They talk of a man betraying his country, his friends, his sweetheart. There must be a moral bond first. All a man can betray is his conscience.


It is not the clear-sighted who lead the world. Great achievements are accomplished in a blessed, warm mental fog.
All from Jozef Teodor Konrad Korzeniowski, 1857-1924, well-known for the books published under the name 'Joseph Conrad.'

I'd rather regret the things I've done than regret the things I haven't done.

We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

They made us many promises, more than I can remember, but they never kept but one; they promised to take our land, and they took it.

If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur.

Every woman should have four pets in her life. A mink in her closet, a jaguar in her garage, a tiger in her bed, and a jackass who pays for everything.
Paris Hilton

Now thats a real woman!!!
