Destiny - A tyrant's authority for crime and a fool's excuse for failure.
View quotes by Ambrose Bierce
September 11 definitely opened our eyes, but when I was 19 or whatever on the last record, we just didn't care about anything. We were too young to care about anything. And then as you get older, you don't really have any excuse to be stupid anymore, to be in the dark. That just kind of opened everyone's eyes (which I probably wish it did to more people) that there's obviously something wrong, to try and figure out what it is and what's going on in the world.

View quotes by Richard Dawkins
We love getting dressed up - and this is a great excuse for a party.
View quotes by Nicola Roberts
I'm still struggling to deal with what I actually did wrong. To be perfectly honest, he's arrogant, and he lost the match today and he's looking for every excuse in the book. He's a sore loser. [on playing Coria in the Davis Cup]
