able to quote another's wit.
-Christian Bovee
For after all, the best thing one can do when it's raining is to let it
rain.
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
For me, the best thing about Cyberpunk is that it taught me how to enjoy
shopping malls, which used to terrify me. Now I just imagine the whole
thing is two miles below the moon's surface, and that half the people's
right-brains have been eaten by roboticized steel rats. And suddenly
it's interesting again.
-Rudy Rucker
I love women. They're the best thing ever created. If they want to be
like men and come down to our level, that's fine.
-Mel Gibson
I've done my best, and I begin to understand what is meant by 'the joy
of strife'. Next to trying and winning, the best thing is trying and
failing.
-Lucy Maud Montgomery
I've learned that many of the worst things lead to the best things, that
no great thing is achieved without a couple of bad, bad things on the
way to them, and that the bad things that happen to you bring, in some
cases, the good things.
-Mike Nichols
If you want to be a psychological novelist and write about human beings,
the best thing you can do is to keep a pair of cats.

In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing.
The worst thing you can do is nothing.
-Theodore Roosevelt
In times of stress, the best thing we can do for each other is to listen

just as important as our answers.

The best thing about humor is that it shows people they're not alone.

attending its services.
-John P. Marquand

-Audrey Hepburn
The best things and best people rise out of their separateness. I'm
against a homogenized society because I want the cream to rise.

Frost

opportunities in life where you get to experience all three at the same
time.

There's only one thing in this world that's worth having. Love. L-o-v-e.
You love somebody, somebody loves you. That's all there is to it. But if
you don't get that, you've got nothing. So you take the next best thing.
You take power or money or fame or whatever little morsel you can pick
up for yourself as second best.
-Charles Mergendahl
True love is the best thing in the world, except for cough drops.
-William
Goldman
We love America just as much as they do. But in a different way. You
see, they love America like a four-year-old loves his mommy. Liberals
love America like grown-ups. To a four-year-old, everything Mommy does
is wonderful and anyone who criticizes Mommy is bad. Grown-up love means
actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad and
helping your loved one grow. Love takes attention and work and is the
best thing in the world.
-Al Franken
What was the best thing before sliced bread?
-George Carlin
You do what you can for as long as you can, and when you finally can't,
you do the next best thing. You back up but you don't give up.
-Chuck
Yeager
You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be
the best thing in the world for you.
-Walt Disney
