There is a great man who makes every man feel small. But the real great man is the man who makes every man feel great.- GK Chesterton

I sometimes drink mywhisky neat. Other times I take my tie off and leave my shirt hanging out - Tommy Cooper

A woman, especially if she have the misfortune of knowing anything, should conceal it as well as she can -Jane Austen

Comedy is the one job you can do badly and no one will laugh at you. - Max Miller

If you look at the troubles which happened in European countries, this is purely because of the accumulated troubles of the worn out welfare society. I think the labour laws are outdated. The labour laws induce sloth, indolence, rather than hardworking. The incentive system, is totally out of whack.Why should, for instance, within [the] eurozone some member's people have to work to 65, even longer, whereas in some other countries they are happily retiring at 55, languishing on the beach? This is unfair. The welfare system is good for any society to reduce the gap, to help those who happen to have disadvantages, to enjoy a good life, but a welfare society should not induce people not to work hard.-Jin Liqun, the supervising chairman of China's sovereign wealth fund, Talk to Al Jazeera, 06 Nov 2011
