1998
1998 featured the birth of iMac, too much Monica Lewinski, Europe going ‘Euro’, Jordan’s last game in Chicago, embassy bombings, the birth of Google, a juiced McGuire dinging 70, a pro wrestler becoming Governor of Minnesota, and Seinfeld doing nothing for the very last time. It was a good year for writers, offering many insightful perspectives for us all to ponder. Here are all the great quotes from 1998.
“All great achievements arose from dissatisfaction. It is the desire to do better, to dig deeper, that propels a civilization to greatness.”
“The whole purpose of places like Starbucks is for people with no decision-making ability whatsoever to make six decisions just to buy one cup of coffee. Short, tall, light, dark, caf, decaf, low-fat, non-fat, etc. So people who don't know what the hell they're doing or who on earth they are, can, for only $2.95, get not just a cup of coffee but an absolutely defining sense of self - Tall - Decaf - Cappuccino.”
“Michael and I grew old together. But at times, when we laughed, we grew young.”
“I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for.”
“I would stay asleep my whole life if I could dream myself into a company of players.”
“I remember reading somewhere that men learn to love the person that they're attracted to and that women become more and more attracted to the person that they love.”
“War is a sin, but sometimes, a necessary one.”
“Our job is improving the quality of life not just delaying death.”
“Like Icarus we too have been given gifts - knowledge, education, experience. And with these gifts comes the responsibility of choice. We alone decide how our talents are bestowed upon the world. This is our destiny and we hold it in the palm of our hands.”
“Be deliriously happy or at least leave yourself open to be.”
