One nice thing about egotists: they don't talk about other people.

One of the large consolations for experiencing anything unpleasant is
the knowledge that one can communicate it.

One of the major difficulties Trillian experienced in her relationship with
Zaphod was learning to distinguish between him pretending to be stupid just
to get people off their guard, pretending to be stupid because he couldn't
be bothered to think and wanted someone else to do it for him, pretending
to be so outrageously stupid to hide the fact that he actually didn't
understand what was going on, and really being genuinely stupid.  He was
reknowned for being quite clever and quite clearly was so -- but not all the
time, which obviously worried him, hence the act.  He preferred people to be
puzzled rather than contemptuous.  This above all appeared to Trillian to be
genuinely stupid, but she could no longer be bothered to argue about.
                -- Douglas Adams, "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"

One of the pleasures of reading old letters is the knowledge that they

                -- George Gordon, Lord Byron

One of the worst of my many faults is that I'm too critical of myself.

One would like to stroke and caress human beings, but one dares not do so,
because they bite.
                -- Vladimir Il'ich Lenin

Only a fool has no doubts.

Only a mediocre person is always at his best.

Only fools are quoted.

Only kings, presidents, editors, and people with tapeworms have the right
to use the editorial "we".
                -- Mark Twain
