“Because so many things were rationed, it was a big deal to get almost anything. Since I wore a uniform, some things were possible for me to take care of which would have been impossible for Doris. Early in the morning of our wedding day, I went to the bakery in Sonnenberg and picked up the wedding cake. That important item was my biggest headache, because I had to supply the baker with everything the recipe called for.”
Bill McCullough
“Indeed, so far from being humorous, the male American is the most abnormally serious creature who ever existed.... It is only fair to admit that he can exaggerate, but even his exaggeration has a rational basis. It is not founded on wit or fancy; it does not spring from any poetic imagination....”
Oscar Wilde
“The market has lost all rationality and anything can happen now -- further fall or big rise.”
Celso Cenise
“Basically what everybody's doing now is rationing. Major retailers like Chevron are on rationed supply.”
Roy Mahone
“The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.”
Albert Einstein
“As an atheist you have to rationalize things. . . . Then you have to try and make some sort of sense out of your problems. And if you try and find you can't, you have no choice but to be good and scared -- but that's okay!”
Billy Joel
“Rational behavior requires theory. Reactive behavior requires only reflex action.”
W. Edwards Deming
