Johnny Hart's comic strip "B.C.": "If man evolved from the
ape, how come there are still apes around? Some of them were
given choices."

This one is my favorite:
Bill Watterson, cartoonist: "Sometimes I think the surest
sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe
is that none of it has tried to contact us."

Unidentified Scientist:  "After two years of trying,
scientists at the Yerkes Regional Primate Center have
managed to get a chimpanzee pregnant."  Which proves that no
task is repugnant to a true scientist.

Irv Kupcinet: "What can you say about a society that says
God is dead and Elvis is alive?"

A man said to the Universe: "Sir, I exist!"
"However," replied the Universe,
"the fact has not created in me a sense of obligation."
                -- Stephen Crane

Be self-reliant and your success is assured.

For economists, the real world is often a special case.

Ask five economists and you'll get five different explanations (six if
one went to Harvard).
                -- Edgar R. Fiedler
An ounce of vanity can ruin a ton of merit.

The world's a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed.
                -- Sean O'Casey
