There’s no reason to cry over spilled milk. People cannot change the things that have already happened.

A successful person's life is made up of a time when he gets out of bed, and a time he goes to bed; and in-between them is filled up with a time that he makes sure something definitely happened!

To have been possessed by something so awful and so alien, and then the next morning wake up from it, remember what happened, and realize what I had done, with a clear mind and all my essential moral and ethical feelings intact at that moment, [I was] absolutely horrified that I was capable of doing something like that.

I can't change what's happened to me in my life, or make what's not occurred take place. But I can't say I like it, or accept it, or believe it's for the best. I don't and never shall, not even if I'm damned for it.

Listen to the sadness,the echoes in my mind,the place where I usually hide,but now I cannot find.Why had it happened?What had I done?Where was I going?Now I'm on the run.Hiding from the echoes,the pounding in my ears,the beatings getting louder,it isn't death, I fear!

We are sometimes hurt mostly or only not by what happened or is happening to us but by being felt sorry for.

Something else has happened with computers.

Do not grieve when something good ends, be glad that it happened.

This isn't a drill, sir!'What d'you mean this isn't a drill?' It couldn't be! It wasn't possible. Things like that only happen in blockbuster sci-fi movies, not in real life!'It's not a drill, sir! This is the real thing! You'd better get up here right away sir! Sir? Sir!'But Commander Ortez was already on his way -- and he was running.When he eventually made his theatrical entrance on the bridge, nothing had happened yet. He wheezed.'Well?' He appealed, ready for anything. After that, this had better not be a drill. Or else.
