Mel BrooksI want to make a toast to all at this press event who agree with Thomas Jefferson, who said that our liberty depends on the freedom of the press.

Michael EmersonHaving placed in my mouth sufficient bread for three minutes' chewing, I withdrew my powers of sensual perception and retired into the privacy of my mind, my eyes and face assuming a vacant and preoccupied expression.

Thomas SowellAnd in that moment I possessed and lost the whole world and everything in it and was left with the feeling and the knowledge, which is love, that no matter how we give ourselves we always end up losing.
