The best proof of love is trust. Iron rusts from disuse; stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind. What the world really needs is more love and less paper work. Time is never wasted when you're wasted all the time. The Babylon project was our last, best hope for peace. .. It failed. .. But in the year of the Shadow war it became something greater: our last, best hope .. for victory. The year is 2260, the place: Babylon 5I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a ... brain operation. Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning. Love takes up where knowledge leaves off. Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies. Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are. The great thing about a computer notebook is that no matter how much you stuff into it, it doesn't get bigger or heavier. Who so loves believes the impossible. Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love. Touch is the most fundamental sense. A baby experiences it, all over, before he is born and long after he learns to use sight, hearing, or taste, and no human ever ceases to need it. Keep your children short on pocket money - but long on hugs. When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. So, let's all get drunk and go to heaven! Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club. All love shifts and changes. I don't know if you can be wholeheartedly in love all the time. The great thing about television is that if something important happens anywhere in the world, day or night, you can always change the channel. Love is the immortal flow of energy that nourishes, extends and preserves. Its eternal goal is life. It's not that chocolates are a substitute for love. Love is a substitute for chocolate. Chocolate is, let's face it, far more reliable than a man. If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. The Eskimo has fifty-two names for snow because it is important to them; there ought to be as many for love. The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind. When solving problems, dig at the roots instead of just hacking at the leaves. Life's challenges are not supposed to paralyze you, they're supposed to help you discover who you are. Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy. No elected body is the country, we are the country. You and me. Us. It can only stay that way as long as we care to keep it so.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands in times of challenge and controversy. Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites. Moderation is for monks. Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up. A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a shp, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects. The quality of the moment is more important than the number of our days. Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites. Moderation is for monks. If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. Everything in excess! To enjoy the flavor of life, take big bites. Moderation is for monks. The best proof of love is trust. Very little is needed to make a happy life. It is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

Hope is like a road in the country: there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence. True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable. Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them to become what they are capable of being. What contemptible scoundrel has stolen the cork to my lunch? Love is the beauty of the soul. Can miles truly separate you from friends... If you want to be with someone you love, aren't you already there? A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes. If you find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere. Hope is like a road in the country: there was never a road, but when many people walk on it, the road comes into existence Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines. Always listen to experts. They'll tell you what can't be done, and why. Then do it. The problem with the world is that everyone is a few drinks behind. If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant; if we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines. The great thing about a computer notebook is that no matter how much you stuff into it, it doesn't get bigger or heavier. A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous. Love is the energy of the soul. Love is what heals the personality. There is nothing that cannot be healed by love. There is nothing but love. A woman drove me to drink and I didn't even have the decency to thank her. Too often we give our children answers to remember rather than problems to solve. The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands in times of challenge and controversy. Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. No elected body is the country, we are the country. You and me. Us. It can only stay that way as long as we care to keep it so. You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer. Change is inevitable, except from vending machines. Give me a woman who loves beer and I will conquer the world. You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline. It helps if you have some kind of a football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer. When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. Too often we give our children answers to remember rather than problems to solve. I discovered I always have choices and sometimes it's only a choice of attitude. Distance between two hearts is not an obstacle; rather a great reminder of just how strong true love can be. Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer. Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is a battle, love is a war; love is a growing up. Begin doing what you want to do now. We are not living in eternity. We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake. Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you. Not because they are nice, but because you are. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a ... brain operation. It's not that chocolates are a substitute for love. Love is a substitute for chocolate. Chocolate is, let's face it, far more reliable than a man. You can widen your life by yourself, but to deepen it you need a friend. Each encounter that becomes a friendship turns into a lifeline. One can never have too many, only too many to properly take care of. Take away love and our earth is a tomb. The Eskimo has fifty-two names for snow because it is important to them; there ought to be as many for love. No elected body is the country, we are the country. You and me. Us. It can only stay that way as long as we care to keep it so.
