“Making money ain’t nothing exciting to me. You might be able to buy a little better booze than the wino on the corner. But you get sick just like the next cat, and when you die you’re just as graveyard dead as he is”. –Louis Armstrong

“Familiarity breeds contempt, but privacy excites interest”. –Apuleius

“Nothing is more curious than the almost savage hostility that Humour excites in those who lack it”. –George Saintsbury

“The burning enthusiasm, the quenchless zeal of the early church have gone, never, never to return. The ceremonies remain, but the ancient faith is fading out of the human heart. The worn-out arguments fail to convince, and denunciations that once blanched the faces of a race, excite us only in derision and disgust. As time rolls on, the miracles grow mean and small, and the evidences our fathers thought conclusive utterly fail to satisfy us”. –Robert G. Ingersoll

“I feel sorry for the person who can’t get genuinely excited about his work. Not only will he never be satisfied, but he will never achieve anything worthwhile”. –Walter Chrysler
