Something Quotes (page 422)

The real purpose of the scientific method is to make sure nature hasn’t misled you into thinking you know something you actually don’t know. Robert M. Pirsig
If you took a couple of David Bowies and stuck one of the Davied Bowies on top of the other David Bowie, then attatched another David Bowie to the end of each of the arms of the upper of the first two David Bowies and wrapped the whole business up in a dirty beach robe you would then have something which didn't exactly look like John Watson, but which those who knew him would find hauntingly familiar.

But when I started writing, suddenly there was something that I brought to the party that was at a high-enough level. Aaron Sorkin
If your Birthday is on Christmas day and you're not Jesus, you should start telling people your birthday is on June 9 or something. Just read up on the traits of a Gemini. Suddenly you're a multitasker who loves the color yellow. Because not only do you get stuck with them combo gift, you get the combo song. "We wish you a merry Christmas - and happy birthday, Terry - we wish you a merry Christmas - happy birthday, Terry - we wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Ye - Birthday, Terry! Ellen DeGeneres
Well, I can understand how you feel. You worked hard, studying for the spelling bee, and I suppose you feel you let everyone down, and you made a fool of yourself and everything. But did you notice something, Charlie Brown?" "What's that?"The world didn't come to an end. Charles M. Schulz
