Advice is like snow - the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper it sinks into the mind.
Be creative enough to dream, brave enough to try, persistent enough to succeed, and humble enough to thank those who helped you along the way.
Elizabeth Parker
We know so well what we are doing ourselves and why we do it, do we not? I fancy that there is some truth in the view which is being put forward nowadays, that it is our less conscious thoughts and our less conscious actions which mainly mould our lives and the lives of those who spring from us.
Samuel Butler (novelist)
It was very bad if the council had resorted to recruiting men. By tradition men were our last line of defence, their physical strength bent towards the single and most important task of protecting our homes and children. This meant the council had decided that our only defence was to defeat the enemy, period. Anything else meant the end of Darre.
N.K. Jemisin
Love is its own reward.
Vanna Bonta
Everything will usually get worse before it gets better, but when it does get better...remember all who put you down and all who helped you up. Forgive but never forget. Let Karma take care of all the rest.
Timothy Pina
The positivists have a simple solution: the world must be divided into that which we can say clearly and the rest, which we had better pass over in silence. But can anyone conceive of a more pointless philosophy, seeing that what we can say clearly amounts to next to nothing? If we omitted all that is unclear, we would probably be left completely uninteresting and trivial tautologies.
Werner Heisenberg
And as I played, a child came thro' the gate, A boy who looked at me without a word, As tho' he saw stretch far behind my head Long lines of radiant angels, row on row. That day we spoke a little, timidly, And after that I never heard the voice That sang so many songs for love of me.
Sara Teasdale
So, a little advice. Relax. You're not filling a job position. You're looking for a pleasant acquaintance.. who might become a good friend... who turns out to be attractive to your senses... and a rewarding lover... then a committed partner whose heart will not stray. If you don't see those signposts and in that order, then you're probably on the wrong road and getting more lost with every step.
Anthony D. Ravenscroft
Friends are like bras, attached near your heart for support. Foes are like panties, deported, every now and then, when they get dirty.
Santosh Kalwar
Do you not then hear this horrible scream all around you that people usually call silence.
Werner Herzog
We acknowledge but one motive - to follow the truth as we know it, whithersoever it may lead us; but in our heart of hearts we are well assured that the truth which has made us free, will in the end make us glad also.
Mortimer Adler
I love criticism just so long as it's unqualified praise.
Noel Coward
People only worry about the uncanny for about a week; that's the end of their attention span. After that, suspicions turn into shtick.
Scott Westerfeld
Vanquished in life, his death By beauty made amends: The passing of his breath Won his defeated ends.
Lionel Johnson
He smiled. He liked to imagine that she saw the beauty, that she could think outside the well-worn tracks of her countrymen, find something to like about this unsophisticated place. Because that just might mean she could find something to like about him.
Kim Wilkins
Is love so fragile... and the heart so hollow Shatter with words... impossible to follow You're saying I'm fragile...I try not to be I search only...for something I can't see
Stevie Nicks
Software engineering is the part of computer science which is too difficult for the computer scientist.
Friedrich Bauer
But it is the way of youth that each fresh piece of knowledge of life should go to its head, and that once uplifted by an emotion it can never have enough of it.
Stefan Zweig
Fair and balanced is doublespeak for bite-out-chunks-of-truth until only irrelevancy is left, byte-sized, entertaining irrelevancy.
Larisa Alexandrovna
If I stopped loving Him, I would cease to believe in His love. If I loved God, then I would believe in His love for me. It's not enough to need it. We have to love first, and I don't know how. But I need it, how I need it.
Graham Greene
I actually got hurt in a steel factory in 1985 and so that changed my life. I went to a junior college and that's where I discovered acting.
John Corbett
I will go wherever the truth leads me. It is secular scholarship, Rebbe; it is not the scholarship of tradition. In secular scholarship there are no boundaries and no permanently fixed views.Lurie, if the Torah cannot go out into your world of scholarship and return stronger, then we are all fools and charlatans. I have faith in the Torah. I am not afraid of truth.
Chaim Potok
I protest against deference to any man, whether John Stuart Mill, or Adam Smith, or Aristotle, being allowed to check inquiry. Our science has become far too much a stagnant one, in which opinions rather than experience and reason are appealed to.
William Stanley Jevons
Men are not potatoes!
Robert A. Heinlein
This life at best is but an inn, And we the passengers.
James Howell
Well, I'm proud of it. I was declard persona non grata not by the country but by a terrorist regime. But I know that Cubans love me and my music.
Gloria Estefan
The drinking of coffee is an absolute sin! Our Glorious Prophet did not partake of coffee because he knew it dulled the intellect, caused ulcers, hernia and sterility; he understood that coffee was nothing but the Devil's ruse.
Orhan Pamuk
Sowing seeds of kindness always reaps a crop of heavenly blessings.
Rebecca Barlow Jordan
I don't see one as bring better or more literate than the other and there's a real buzz to not only writing about a character I love like Superman, but also writing something that kids can enjoy.
Mark Millar
Don't let the bastards grind you down.
Margaret Atwood
Love is cheap. You can buy it anywhere. Lives are cheap. It's money that's dear. You have to work days and sit up nights thinking how to make money.
John Dos Passos
I didn't think there was life after modelling, believe me. It's a hit to the ego when you are not the diva on the set any more. But I think what keeps me going are challenges. I love when people tell me I can't do something.
Carol Alt
Either we are adrift in chaos or we are individuals, created, loved, upheld and placed purposefully, exactly where we are. Can you believe that? Can you trust God for that?
Elisabeth Elliot
The verse adorn again Fierce War, and faithful Love, And Truth severe, by fairy Fiction drest.
Thomas Gray
Well, I'm using a cane, so what? So what if they shot me sitting in a wheelchair? That's life!
Dick Clark
I love all music. Right now I am loving Josh Grobin and Kelly Clarkson.
Kaley Cuoco
Keep up you conjugal love in constant heat and vigor.
Richard Baxter
We are all the walking wounded in a world that is a war zone. Everything we love will be taken from us, everything, last of all life itself. Yet everywhere I look, I find great beauty in this battlefield, and grace and the promise of joy.
Dean Koontz
The constant questioning of our values and achievements is a challenge without which neither science nor society can remain healthy.
Aage Niels Bohr
We are often taught to look for the beauty in all things, so in finding it, the layman asks the philosopher while the philosopher asks the photographer.
