This is incorrectly-attributed and poorly-punctuated (a comma never separates two complete sentences). Skeptoid looked into it and found that it “doesn’t appear in anything Dr. Seuss ever wrote or published and … is always quoted without a source.”

It sounds kind of nice maybe, but you have to forget that you might cry with joy after your colonoscopy.

There’s no reason to think she ever said/wrote this. Mary Grace Garis of Elle looked for evidence and couldn’t find it.

“I’m selfish, impatient and a little insecure.”
“Yeah, it’s tough being 9 years old.”

There’s no evidence he ever said or wrote this. Incidentally, most people are like everybody else. We’re genetically almost identical and we nearly all fit within two standard deviations of a given normal distribution. To quote Bill Shakespeare: “If you feed me frijoles, do I not flatulate?”

He may have said something pretty similar.

Here’s one he did say:

From a letter to Beatrice Frohlich, 1952.

According to Quote Investigator part of the quote (“those who mind don’t matter….”) was in circulation by the 1930s. There’s no apparent attempt to connect the quote to Baruch until 1946. We don’t know the ultimate origin of the quote. For all it’s apparent wisdom, it could’ve first been said by Hitler or any other despot who didn’t care what others think.

According to Quote Investigator, songwriters Susanna Clark and Richard Leigh deserve credit for stringing a very similar set of words together in 1987:

You’ve got to sing like you don’t need the money
Love like you’ll never get hurt
You’ve got to dance like nobody’s watchin’
It’s gotta come from the heart if you want it to work

This one appears to have emerged from the ether sometime in the 2000s. Like so many quotes, it should simply be attributed to The Ether. Incidentally, Dr. Seuss wasn’t a doctor.

A Wikiquote user notes that Cicero did write a passage that can translate to “[S]ince Tyrannio has arranged my books for me, my house seems to have had a soul added to it.” However, there’s no direct quote from Cicero that matches this one.

If you assume, as many very evil people do, that no body has a soul, this quote becomes impressively meaningless. An alteration that might please some people could be, “A room without books is like a mind without inspiration.” We might think differently if we saw Cicero’s library, though. Here are some of his favorites, according to biographers:

• The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts
• The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are
• Dianetics
• Desire (#1): Desired by the Billionaire (Desire series)
• Justin Bieber: First Step 2 Forever
• Into the Darkness: Paranormal Menage Romance

A person named J.J. Wright is credited with writing a pamphlet titled So Many Books! So Little Time! What to Do? that was published in 1892.

Here’s something he actually did say in a 1986 episode of CNN’s Crossfire: “I don’t believe that there is any word that needs to be suppressed. There’s no scientific or realistic reason why you should keep people from hearing certain words.”

Nope. This version of the quote is first attributed to comedian/singer Joe E. Lewis.

What does it mean to “do it right”? Make sure you’re born rich?

You can find the basic idea in volume 13 of his collected works: “If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. […] We need not wait to see what others do.”

He apparently did say this on his 80th birthday in an interview with Los Angeles Times reporter Ray Josephs published September 5th, 1954.

He doesn’t appear to’ve ever said this.

This seems more characteristic of Camus based on my limited knowledge of him:

Accepting the absurdity of everything around us is one step, a necessary experience: it should not become a dead end. It arouses a revolt that can become fruitful. An analysis of the idea of revolt could help us to discover ideas capable of restoring a relative meaning to existence, although a meaning that would always be in danger.

From an interview with Jeanine Delpeche, published in Les Nouvelles litteraires, November 15, 1945*

She didn’t say this exact thing, but, per Quote Investigator, she said something similar that may be the basis for this quote: “A snub is the effort of a person who feels superior to make someone else feel inferior. To do so, he has to find someone who can be made to feel inferior.”

To the discredit of goodreads, they attribute the quote to her autobiography; it doesn’t appear there.

Surprisingly, yes, he did write this, apparently in 1894 and it was included in a book published in 1935. It’s surprising that he said it because he’s such a quote magnet. I did a bit of analysis myself using work at Quote Investigator and found that 11.5% (7/61) of attributed quotes analyzed as of 4/19/2016 can actually be attributed to Twain. This quote beats the odds.

He included (almost) this quote in his book The Note Book of Elbert Hubbard; Mottoes, Epigrams, Short Essays, Passages, Orphic Sayings and Preachments, Coined From a Life of Love, Laughter and Work, by a Man Who Achieved Greatly in Literature, Art, Philosophy and Business (published in 1927). It’s a 256-pager and 250 of those pages are just the title!

His version is, “Your friend is the man who knows all about you and still likes you.”

Hubbard also wrote of prison that it’s, “An example of a Socialist’s Paradise, where equality prevails, everything is supplied, and competition is eliminated.”*

The first example of this found by Quote Investigator was by high-level LDS official Carl W. Buehner.

It’s a fine idea as meaningless ideas go. In fact humans generally have pretty unreliable memories. So, that memory of how someone made you feel is probably being influenced by how old the memory is, whether or not you’re hungry right now, whether or not you’ve just taken a blow to the head, etc.

I checked around a dozen of Wilde’s books and collected writings and couldn’t find it. No example on the web gives a source. If he said it, there’s no good evidence.

In his 1890 work The Picture of Dorian Gray he did write, “I choose my friends for their good looks, my acquaintances for their good characters, and my enemies for their good intellects.”

I can’t figure out who said it originally, but I was able to find it without attribution in Volume 27 of a publication called American Annals of Education from 1877. Gandhi would’ve been around 8 years old at that time. Some Wikiquote users trace it even farther back.

Yes, he did say this in his 1891 essay The Soul of Man under Socialism:

With the abolition of private property, then, we shall have true, beautiful, healthy Individualism. Nobody will waste his life in accumulating things, and the symbols for things. One will live. To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

It’s easy to see why it got trimmed down. Must be tough to fit that whole thing on a tattoo:
