I'd like to meet:

Honest men fear neither the light nor the dark.
Without love, benevolence becomes egotism.
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist fears this is true.
The world is like a ride in an amusement park. And when you choose to go on it, you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are. It has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun...for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time, and they begin to question: 'Is this real, or is this just a ride?' And other people have remembered, and they come back to us, and they say, 'Hey, don't worry, don't be afraid, ever, because this is just a ride.' And we kill those people. 'Shut him up! We have a lot invested in this ride. Look at my big bank account and my family! This has to be real.' It's just a ride. But we always kill those good guys who try and tell us that, and let the demons run amok.
Watching television is like taking black spray paint to your third eye.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose and in the right way...that is not easy.
If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.
I don't mean to sound bitter, cold, or cruel, but I am, so that's how it comes out.
No man chooses evil because it is evil. He only mistakes it for happiness, the good he seeks.
Hurt leads to bitterness, bitterness to anger, travel too far that road, and the way is lost.
Hate is good. But it has to be pure hate, not diluted by prejudice or pettiness. It is probably the purest emotion you can experience because it is not chemical and conditional like love. It has many good side effects, like focus. It gives you determination. It can drive you. It can inspire you.
Anyone who thinks for themselves and truly lives their own life is never loved by all, and hatred takes effort. Being loved is amazing, being hated is almost as flattering.
The world will never truly be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest.
If you're not with me, then you're my enemy.
Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake.
People demand freedom of speech to make up for the freedom of thought which they avoid.
I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.
You can only find truth with logic if you have already found truth without it.
All are lunatics, but he who can analyze his delusion is called a philosopher.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.
Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal.
He who hesitates is a dammed fool.
The instinct of nearly all societies is to lock up anybody who is truly free. First, society begins by trying to beat you up. If this fails, they try to poison you. If this fails too, the finish by loading honors on your head.
Most people would sooner die than think; in fact, they do so.
Hell is other people.
Happiness is good health and a bad memory.
To sit alone with my conscience will be judgment enough for me.
The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
Heav'n hath no rage like love to hatred turn'd.
