Edwin Carp
- Perseverance
Somebody said it couldn't be done, but he with a chuckle replied, "Maybe it couldn't, but I will be one who'll never say 'No!' 'till I've tried." So he buckled right in, with a trace of a grin on his face. If he worried he hid it, and he tackled that thing that couldn't be done and he couldn't do it.
Edwin Carp
- Courage
There came a giant to my door, a giant big and strong. His arms were thirty inches thick, his legs were twelve yards long. He scowled, he frowned, he shook the ground. I trembled through and through. And then I looked him in the face, and said, "Who cares for you?" And he hit me.
Edwin Carp
- Feet
You need feet to stand up straight with, you need feet to kick your friends, you need feet to keep your socks on, and to stop your legs from fraying at the ends. You need feet to stand on tippy-toe, or to do the hootchie-koo. Yes, the whole world needs feet for something, and I need feet to run away from you.

- Golden Girls
Mrs. Gunderson, our grade school teacher, was the nicest woman you'd ever want to meet! As the years went by, she got her facts a little confused. In biology class, she started telling kids that the human body was made up of 80 percent Ovaltine. While we were studying WWI, she told us mustard gas was something you got from eating too many hot dogs. That's why, to this day in St. Olaf, everyone celebrates the 4th of July with a thin omelet on a bun.
Sophia Petrillo
- Golden Girls
She happens to like girls instead of guys. Some people like cats instead of dogs. Frankly, I'd rather live with a lesbian than a cat. Unless the lesbian sheds, then I don't know.
Mary Harris Jones
I believe that no man who holds a leader's position should ever accept favors from either side. He is then committed to show favors. A leader must stand alone.
George Burns
You know, when I was breaking into show business, I figured out a little stunt, myself. I had a lot of cards printed to give out to booking agents and theater managers, and they were made out of fine linen with engraved lettering, and it said, "Be the first one to hire George Burns." My friends thought they were too expensive, but they weren't. Those cards lasted me seven years.
Eugene V. Debs
Your Honor, years ago I recognized my kinship with all living beings, and I made up my mind that I was not one bit better than the meanest on earth. I said then, and I say now, that while there is a lower class, I am in it, and while there is a criminal element I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.
