Monogamy is desirable for many reasons, especially in creating a stable, emotionally connected home for children. But judging from centuries of human behavior, it is also a very difficult standard to meet.
‐‐ Mary Gaitskill
Monogamy is like a 40-watt bulb. It works, but it's not enough.
‐‐ John Patrick Shanley
Monogamy is not something that's important to me. I don't think it defines love.
‐‐ Marie Helvin
Monologues are self-verifying and self-referencing, a world in their own right, one with its own internal logic that strengthens with reiteration.
‐‐ Samantha Harvey
Monopolies are bad and deserve their reputation when things are static and the monopolies function as toll collectors... But I think they're quite positive when they're dynamic and do something new.
‐‐ Peter Thiel
Monopolies are bad because people get bad service for high prices. Competition is good because people get good service for competitive prices.
‐‐ Timothy C. Draper
Monopolists who fear competition and who distrust democracy because it stands for equal opportunity would like to secure their position against small and energetic enterprise.
‐‐ Henry A. Wallace
Monopoly controls have been the exception in free societies; they have been the rule in closed societies.
‐‐ Lawrence Lessig
Monopoly may also end in tears, but its tensions are cruder, lacking the infinitely subtle shadings of irritation and acrimony provided by Scrabble.

Monorail tracks are prefabricated and can be erected relatively quickly: Simply dig a hole every 120 feet or so, plop down a column, and lift the track into place. Because the systems operate above traffic, collisions with errant motorists are never an issue. The trains are automated, saving millions in labor costs in the long run.
‐‐ Brendan I. Koerner
Monorails have their own fan club, which claims more than 2,500 members who swap monorail toys and trinkets. Modern light rail can claim no such devoted fan base.
‐‐ Brendan I. Koerner
Monotheism makes me grouchy. I don't trust any religion that makes God look like one of the ruling class. I guess I'm a pagan or an animist.
‐‐ Gloria Steinem
Monotony collapses time; novelty unfolds it. You can exercise daily and eat healthily and live a long life, while experiencing a short one. If you spend your life sitting in a cubicle and passing papers, one day is bound to blend unmemorably into the next - and disappear.
‐‐ Joshua Foer
Monsanto can do anything they want to you, and put anything they want into your foods. There's nothing you can do about it.
‐‐ Jesse Ventura
Monsieur Puss came at last to a stately castle, the master of which was an Ogre, the richest ever known; for all the lands which the King had then passed through belonged to this castle.
‐‐ Charles Perrault
Monsieur Saint Laurent was pathologically shy, and he made the Saint Laurent woman in his own image. Like her, I am shy. And to protect myself, I adopted something of an androgynous look, just as his women did.

Monsters almost always are culture's way of working out their fears and are thus inherently incredibly interesting and powerful.
‐‐ Catherynne M. Valente
Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside us, and sometimes, they win.
‐‐ Stephen King
Monsters don't scare me at all; I think creepy is scarier than gore. I tend to read more thrillers and mysteries than horror, though. I like a good whodunnit. If I want scary, I tend to reach for a movie. I think it's a great medium for horror.
‐‐ Sarah Pinborough
'Monsters,' everybody has the thought of monsters in your closet as a kid, and more importantly, the idea of becoming a parent. We're always kind of looking for those emotional nuggets. They're always at the heart of the story.
‐‐ Pete Docter
Monsters just outside our peripheral vision are scarier to contemplate than monsters miles away or in someplace only a fool would set foot in.
‐‐ Andrew Pyper
Monsters will always exist. There's one inside each of us. But an angel lives there, too. There is no more important agenda than figuring out how to slay one and nurture the other.
‐‐ Jacqueline Novogratz
Montana and I had a chemistry that was unbelievable. When I first came into the league he told me I added five years to his career, and I just think we complimented each other very well and were able to do some amazing things out on the football field.
‐‐ Jerry Rice
Montana's ranchers raise the best cattle in the world. If Taco Bell needs to beef up, they can give their customers the highest quality meat around by using Montana beef, and in the process, supporting agriculture jobs in Montana.
‐‐ Jon Tester
Montanans believe in the right to make a good life for their families. How they define a family should be their business and their business alone. I'm proud to support marriage equality because no one should be able to tell a Montanan or any American who they can love and who they can marry.
‐‐ Jon Tester
Montanans elected me to the Senate to do away with shady backroom deals and to make government work better.
‐‐ Jon Tester
Montenegro belongs to a rare number of countries that have managed to make progress on every internationally recognisable indicator.

Monterey, I remember, but I seem to remember the Fillmore West, that we played the week before Monterey. That was much more memorable for me. The first time in San Francisco. They were good gigs.
‐‐ Roger Daltrey
Montevideo is a beautiful city with a very European style. It's a small city, but with a lot of cultural movement and a lot of personality. At the same time, it's a very chill city.
‐‐ Juan Campodonico
Month after month, Wizard Academy equips people who want to make a difference. This is why journalists and scientists and artists and educators and business owners and advertising professionals and ministers are attracted to our little school.

Monti is a person who is an expert on both the political and professional level.

Montreal is a great town. There's equal parts blue-collar town.
‐‐ Jay Baruchel
Montreal is different from Monaco, as there are some long straights and big braking moments.
‐‐ Romain Grosjean
'Monty Python' and 'The Simpsons' have ruined comedy for writers for the rest of our lives.
‐‐ Scott Adsit
Monty Python crowd; half of them came from Cambridge, and half of them came from Oxford. But, there seems to be this jewel, this sort of two headed tradition of doing comedy, of doing sketches, and that kind of thing.
‐‐ Rowan Atkinson
'Monty Python' is now more recognised by the films than by the TV series.
‐‐ Mark Gatiss
Monty Python never directly said, 'We're liberals' - they just did their sketches, and you had to figure it out. Generally, they were anti-establishment, of course, making fun of the people in power. I think, comedians, that's their job - pointing out what other people might not notice and going, 'Yoo-hoo, over here.'
‐‐ Dana Carvey
Monumental achievements by humanity should be done by major organizations as much together as possible.
‐‐ Buzz Aldrin
Monuments and archaeological pieces serve as testimonies of man's greatness and establish a dialogue between civilizations showing the extent to which human beings are linked.
‐‐ Vicente Fox
Monuments are for the living, not the dead.
‐‐ Frank Wedekind
'Monuments Men' is a movie... I don't want to say for grown-ups, because some young folks could appreciate it, too. But if you're expecting 'Transformers,' you're going to be disappointed.
‐‐ Grant Heslov
'Monuments Men' is not a docudrama. It's not a documentary.

Moo may represent an idea, but only the cow knows.
‐‐ Mason Cooley
Mood disorders are terribly painful illnesses, and they are isolating illnesses. And they make people feel terrible about themselves when, in fact, they can be treated.
‐‐ Kay Redfield Jamison
Moods are complicated and very much a part of who we are. People would be very boring without them.

Moon is also a naive native girl when she sets out for Carbuncle.
‐‐ Joan D. Vinge
Moon! Moon! I am prone before you. Pity me, and drench me in loneliness.

Moon rocks are OK when everyone is eating.
‐‐ Goodman Ace
Moonlight is sculpture.
