Voltaire

What a heavy burden is a name that has become too famous.

By appreciation, we make excellence in others our own property.

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.

I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person - they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated.

As a Jew I cannot sit idle while genocidal atrocities continue to unfold in Darfur, Sudan.
