"Death is caused by swallowing small amounts of saliva over a long period of time." ― George Carlin Topic(s): Death More From George Carlin "Most people work just hard enough not to get fired and get paid just enough money not to quit." "Some people see things that are and ask, Why? Some people dream of things that never were and ask, Why not? Some people have to go to work and don’t have time for all that." "What does it mean to pre-board? Do you get on before you get on?" More In Death "I’m not in favor of the death penalty. But I’m in favor of locking these people away in maximum security units where they can never get out. They can never escape. They can never be paroled. Lock the bad ones away. But you gotta rethink everybody else."― John Grisham "When the courts decide that murderers, rapists, and others who maliciously break our social contract deserve health care that most working Americans can’t afford, they are condemning good people to death."― Tammy Bruce "My life comes down to three moments: the death of my father, meeting my husband, and the birth of my daughter. Everything I did previous to that just doesn’t seem to add up to very much."― Gwyneth Paltrow
