How did you do?

The point is, none of us remember the headliners of yesterday.

These are no second-rate achievers.

They are the best in their fields.

But the applause dies...

Awards tarnish...

Achievements are forgotten.

Accolades and certificates are buried with their owners.

Jack Donaghy

Jack Donaghy, on life:

Never go with a hippie to a second location.

The Italians have a saying, Lemon. “Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.” And though they’ve never won a war, or mass produced a decent car, in this area, they are correct.

Do not hire Sting to play the [wedding] reception. He’ll insist on doing jazz versions of Police songs, and it’s just … demoralizing.

A parent is the one person who is supposed to make their kid think they can do anything. Says they’re beautiful even when they’re ugly. Thinks they’re smart even when they go to Arizona State. Let the rest of the world tear your kid down. Your job is to support him no matter what.

Rich 50 is middle-class 38.

Business drunk — it’s like rich drunk. Either way, it’s legal to drive.

Jack Donaghy, on business:

Twinks could be extremely lucrative. Advertisers covet this demographic. When I was with D’Fwan on Queen of Jordan he spent four thousand on chihuahua outfits. For himself.

Diversity is the engine that drives this country. We are an immigrant nation! The first generation works their fingers to the bone making things, the next generation goes to college and innovates new ideas, the third generation snowboards and takes improv classes. We always need people who are pulling themselves up by their bootstraps. I did it. And it’s my job to help others do it, too.

Letting morality get in the way of making money. I might as well go and be a teacher.

I like when a woman has ambition; it’s like seeing a dog wearing clothes.

Once I set my mind on something I have to accomplish it. Ten years ago I was one and a half inch shorter than I am today. Pure will-power.

I get my hair cut every two days. After all, your hair is your headsuit.

Jack Donaghy, on politics:

I have faith in things I can see and buy and deregulate. Capitalism is my religion.

Next stop: home ownership. Just kidding. The middle class is dying. You’ll be renting forever.

The president is only going to veto your crazy social programs — the founding fathers never intended for the poor to live into their 40s.

And finally, Jack Donaghy, on love:

Dating yourself is a double-edged sword. It means you also share the same flaws

Someday

Someday I'm going to stop writing poetry and start living it!

it's poetry to me. Haille Selassie:

it's poetry to me. Haille Selassie:
"That until the philosophy which holds one race superior and another inferior is finally and permanently discredited and abandoned: That until there are no longer first-class and second class citizens of any nation; 

That until the color of a man's skin is of no more significance than the color of his eyes; That until the basic human rights are equally guaranteed to all without regard to race;

That until that day, the dream of lasting peace and world citizenship and the rule of international morality will remain but a fleeting illusion, to be pursued but never attained;

And until the ignoble and unhappy regimes that hold our brothers in Angola, in Mozambique and in South Africa in subhuman bondage have been toppled and destroyed;

Until bigotry and prejudice and malicious and inhuman self-interest have been replaced by understanding and tolerance and good-will; Until all Africans stand and speak as free beings, equal in the eyes of all men, as they are in the eyes of Heaven;

Until that day, the African continent will not know peace. We Africans will fight, if necessary, and we know that we shall win, as we are confident in the victory of good over evil."

The Nature of Being Free

Freedom is not in being able to choose your leaders but being free from having to choose between those who desire to lead you.
