So far as I can remember, there is not one
word in the Gospels in praise of intelligence.
                -- Bertrand Russell

So far as we are human, what we do must be either evil or good: so far
as we do evil or good, we are human: and it is better, in a paradoxical

                -- T.S. Eliot, essay on Baudelaire

So from the depths of its enchantment, Terra was able to calculate a course
of action.  Here at last was an opportunity to consort with Dirbanu on a
friendly basis -- great Durbanu which, since it had force fields which Earth
could not duplicate, must of necessity have many other things Earth could
use; mighty Durbanu before whom we would kneel in supplication (with purely-
for-defense bombs hidden in our pockets) with lowered heads (making invisible
the knife in our teeth) and ask for crumbs from their table (in order to
extrapolate the location of their kitchens).
                -- T. Sturgeon, "The World Well Lost"

So I'm ugly.  So what?  I never saw anyone hit with his face.
                -- Yogi Berra

So, is the glass half empty, half full, or just twice as
large as it needs to be?

So little time, so little to do.
                -- Oscar Levant

So live that you wouldn't be ashamed
to sell the family parrot to the town gossip.

So many beautiful women and so little time.
                -- John Barrymore
