A penny saved is ridiculous.

A penny saved kills your career in government.

A people living under the perpetual menace of war and invasion is very easy to
govern.  It demands no social reforms.  It does not haggle over expenditures
on armaments and military equipment.  It pays without discussion, it ruins
itself, and that is an excellent thing for the syndicates of financiers and
manufacturers for whom patriotic terrors are an abundant source of gain.
                -- Anatole France

A perfectly honest woman, a woman who never flatters, who never manages,
who never cajoles, who never conceals, who never uses her eyes, who never
speculates on the effect which she produces, who never is conscious of
unspoken admiration, what a monster, I say, would such a female be!
                -- Thackeray

A person forgives only when they are in the wrong.

A person is just about as big as the things that make him angry.

A person who has both feet planted firmly
in the air can be safely called a liberal.

A person who has nothing looks at all there is and wants something.
A person who has something looks at all there is and wants all the rest.

A person who is more than casually interested in computers should be well
schooled in machine language, since it is a fundamental part of a computer.
                -- Donald Knuth

A pessimist is a man who has been compelled to live with an optimist.
                -- Elbert Hubbard
