Marvelous JZ on how the names we pick for ourselves may be more true than our birth names:

However, shrift's name is shrift. The other name is something shrift's parents latched onto for unknown reasons shortly after her birth (I've heard that childbearing is very tiring -- possibly they were just exhausted and confused, and if they'd only waited a few months until they were both rested and refreshed they'd have taken a good long look at their sprog and said, "Why of course she's shrift!")

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

In Building a Better Board

Holli: I get it two or three times in a row, and then not at all for a few minutes.

Trudy Booth: That can happen at your age, Holli...

Cindy: Like I'm worried about a country whose water goes down the drain back-asswards.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Madrigal:

I tend not to give out the real first name because once people know, they can't un-know it, and then they end up using it. It's like giving someone a chainsaw in an unfinished furniture store.
