A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking about real money. – Senator Everett Dirksen
A mere friend will agree with you, but a real friend will argue. – Assyrian Proverb
A real leader faces the music, even when he doesn't like the tune. – Anonymous
America did not invent human rights. In a very real sense ... human rights invented America. – James Earl Jimmy Carter, Jr.
Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it the tree is the real thing. – Abraham Lincoln
Class has a sense of humor. It knows that a good laugh is the best lubricant for oiling the machinery of human relations. Class never makes excuses. It takes its lumps and learns from past mistakes. Class bespeaks an aristocracy unrelated to ancestors or money. Some extremely wealthy people have no class at all, while others who are struggling to make ends meet are loaded with it. Class is real. You can't fake it. Class never tries to build itself up by tearing others down. Class is already up and need not attempt to look better by making others look worse. Everyone is comfortable with the person who has class because he is comfortable with himself. If you have class, you've got it made. If you don't have class, no matter what else you have, it won't make up for it. – Ann Landers
Did you know that for pretty much the entire history of the human species, the average life span was less than thirty years? You could count on ten years or so of real adulthood, right? There was no planning for retirement. There was no planning for a career. There was no planning. No time for planning. No time for future. But then the life spans started getting longer, and people started having more and more future, and so they spent more time thinking about it. About the future. And now life has become the future. Every moment of your life is lived for the future --you go to high school so you can go to college so you can get a good job so you can get a nice house so you can afford to send your kids to college so they can get a good job so they can get a nice house so they can afford to send their kids to college. – John Green
Do you want to know what you are? You are a creator. At every moment you are creating. The real question is, what are you creating? – Bryant McGill
Even paranoids have real enemies. – Delmore Schwartz
Have you even been in love Horrible, isn't it It makes you so vulnrable. It opens your chest and it opens your heart and it means someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses. You build up this whole armor, for years, so nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They don't ask for it. They do something dumb one day like kiss you, or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so a simple phrase like 'maybe we should just be friends' or 'how very perceptive' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a body-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love. – Rose Walker
I am always grieved when a man of real talent dies, for the world needs such men more than heaven does. – G. C. Lichtenberg
I love acting. It is so much more real than life. – Oscar Wilde
I'll say it again, for every moment you're with the wrong person, you are robbing yourself and the right person of the opportunity to find real happiness. – Ingrid Weir
If aliens from outer space ever come and we show them our civilization and they make fun of it, we should say we were just kidding, that this isn't really our civilization, but a gag we hoped they would like. Then we tell them to come back in twenty years to see our REAL civilization. After that, we start a crash program of coming up with an impressive new civilization. Either that, or just shoot down the aliens as they're waving good-bye. – Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
If I ever get real rich, I hope I'm not real mean to poor people, like I am now. – Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
If it sounds good, you'll hear it If it looks good, you'll see it If it's marketed right, you'll buy it but if it's real, you'll feel it. – Kid Rock
If you're in a war, instead of throwing a hand grenade at some guys, throw one of those little baby-type pumpkins. Maybe it'll make everyone think of how crazy war is, and while they're thinking, you can throw a real grenade. – Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
Isn't it funny how one minute life can be such a struggle, and the next minute you're just driving real fast, swerving back and forth across the road – Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
It is expected from the government officials and the financial sector to selectively report on the good news to avoid investors panic and maintain confidence in the economy. Unfortunately building confidence has been the name of the game since the beginning of the crisis rather than real economic reforms. – Med Jones
It's funny that pirates were always going around searching for treasure, and they never realized that the real treasure was the fond memories they were creating. – Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
Morpheus If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain – Matrix, The
One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no,' I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late. – Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance. – Confucius
Real knowledge, like everything else of value, is not to be obtained easily. It must be worked for, studied for, thought for, and, more that all, must be prayed for. – Thomas Arnold
Real men aren't afraid of childish accusations. (Quite the paradox eh?) – Craig Friebolin
