William Shakespeare
“You lie, in faith; for you are call'd plain Kate,
And bonny Kate and sometimes Kate the curst;
But Kate, the prettiest Kate in Christendom
Kate of Kate Hall, my super-dainty Kate,
For dainties are all Kates, and therefore, Kate,
Take this of me, Kate of my consolation;
Hearing thy mildness praised in every town,
Thy virtues spoke of, and thy beauty sounded,
Yet not so deeply as to thee belongs,
Myself am moved to woo thee for my wife.”
William Shakespeare, The Taming of the Shrew

Dorothy Parker
“You can't teach an old dogma new tricks.”
Dorothy Parker, The Algonquin Wits

John J. Ratey
“At every level, from the microcellular to the psychological, exercise not only wards off the ill effects of chronic stress; it can also reverse them. Studies show that if researchers exercise rats that have been chronically stressed, that activity makes the hippocampus grow back to its preshriveled state. The mechanisms by which exercise changes how we think and feel are so much more effective than donuts, medicines, and wine. When you say you feel less stressed out after you go for a swim, or even a fast walk, you are.”
John J. Ratey, Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain

Isaac Asimov
“Creationists make it sound as though a 'theory' is something you dreamt up after being drunk all night.”
Isaac Asimov

“In life, unlike chess, the game continues after checkmate.”
