Random Quotes and Quotations
 The motto should not be: Forgive one another; rather understand one another.  All prosperity begins in the mind and is dependent only upon the full use of our creative imagination. It is easy enough to be pleasant, when life flows by like a song. But the man worthwhile is one who will smile, when everything goes dead wrong. No punishment has ever possessed enough power of deterrence to prevent the commission of crimes. On the contrary, whatever the punishment, once a specific crime has appeared for the first time, its reappearance is more likely than its initial emergence could ever have been. The English of the Bible has a pithiness and raciness, a homely tang, a terse sententiousness, an idiomatic flavour which comes home to men's business and bosoms ... a nobility of diction and ... a rhythmic quality . . . unrivaled in its beauty. Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided. - Bible If you rest, you rust. Watch what people are cynical about, and one can often discover what they lack. All I would tell people is to hold on to what was individual about themselves, not to allow their ambition for success to cause them to try to imitate the success of others. You've got to find in on your own terms. You're only as sick as your secrets. We have met the enemy, and he is us. Money and women. They're the two strongest things in the world. There are things you do for a woman you wouldn't do for anything else. Same with money. Science may have found a cure for most evils: but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings. Courage is the lovely virtue-the rib of Himself that God sent down to His children. The great man is he who does not lose his childlike heart. - Mencius The lie is a condition of life. Forgive others often, yourself never. - Syrus Every human being has, like Socrates, an attendant spirit; and wise are they who obey its signals. If it does not always tell us what to do, it always cautions us what not to do. In doubt, fear is the worst of prophets. - Statius If a man wants to be of the greatest possible value to his fellow-creatures, let him begin the long, solitary task of perfecting himself.
