Dates that come around every year help us measure progress in our lives. One annual event, New Year's Day, is a time of reflection and resolution.
All generalizations are false, including this one.
Mark Twain
Masses are always breeding grounds of psychic epidemics.
Carl Gustav Jung
I think that the day you've figured out the differences between women and men is the day that you're no longer attracted to women. It's the difference that is so fantastic and frustrating and angering, and really sexy.
Kiefer Sutherland
Neurosis is always a substitute for legitimate suffering.
I'd luv to kiss ya, but I just washed my hair.

The Christian missionary may preach the gospel to the poor naked heathen, but the spiritual heathen who populate Europe have as yet heard nothing of Christianity.
The highest purpose is to have no purpose at all. This puts one in accord with nature, in her manner of operation.
John Cage
Girls we love for what they are young men for what they promise to be.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
But behavior in the human being is sometimes a defense, a way of concealing motives and thoughts, as language can be a way of hiding your thoughts and preventing communication.
Abraham Maslow
There is no coming to consciousness without pain.
I asked him if it were a mirage, and he said yes. I said it was a dream, and he agreed, But said it was the desert's dream not his. And he told me that in a year or so, when he had aged enough for any man, then he would walk into the wind, until he saw the tents. This time, he said, he would go on with them.
Neil Gaiman
Follow that will and that way which experience confirms to be your own.
Carl Jung
Without question, the Red Ryder BB gun is the most important gun in the history of American weaponry.
Ted Nugent
A man who has not passed through the inferno of his passions has never overcome them.
Truth strikes us from behind and in the dark, as well as from before and in broad daylight.
Henry David Thoreau
It all depends on how we look at things, and not how they are in themselves.
Through pride we are ever deceiving ourselves. But deep down below the surface of the average conscience a still, small voice says to us, something is out of tune.
A leader is best when people barely know he exists, when his work is done, his aim fulfilled, they will say: we did it ourselves.
Lao Tzu
Quantum computation is... a distinctively new way of harnessing nature... It will be the first technology that allows useful tasks to be performed in collaboration between parallel universes.
David Deutsch
The design of the Mac wasn't what it looked like, although that was part of it. Primarily, it was how it worked. To design something really well, you have to get it. You have to really grok what it's all about. It takes a passionate commitment to really thoroughly understand something, chew it up, not just quickly swallow it.
Steve Jobs
Psychoanalysis cannot be considered a method of education if by education we mean the topiary art of clipping a tree into a beautiful artificial shape. But those who have a higher conception of education will prize most the method of cultivating a tree so that it fulfils to perfection its own natural conditions of growth.
If you can dream it, you can do it.
Walt Disney
The trouble with movies as a business is that it's an art, and the trouble with movies as art is that it's a business.
Charlton Heston
Good. There are many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.
Everything in Nature contains all the powers of Nature. Everything is made of one hidden stuff.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The company of fools may first make us smile, but in the end we always feel melancholy.
Oliver Goldsmith
The only difference between Hitler and Bush is that Hitler was elected.
Kurt Vonnegut
There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.
Aldous Huxley

Source Unknown
You've always been what you are. That's not new. What you'll get used to is knowing it.
Cassandra Clare
Go-Givers will become the best go-getters.
There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.
Napoleon Bonaparte
In this life, Christ is an example, showing us how to live in his death, he is a sacrifice, satisfying for our sins in his resurrection, a conqueror in his ascentions, a kind in his intercession, a high priest.
Martin Luther King Jr.
Let me be a little kinder, Let me be a little blinder To the faults about me; Let me praise a little more, Let me be, when I am weary; Just a little bit more cheery, Let me serve a little better Those that I am striving for. Let me be a little braver When temptation bids me waver, Let me strive a little harder To be all that I should be; Let me be a little meeker to the brother that is weaker; Let me think more of my neighbor and a little less of me.
The Arab-Israeli conflict is also in many ways a conflict about status: it's a war between two peoples who feel deeply humiliated by the other, who want the other to respect them. Battles over status can be even more intractable than those over land or water or oil.
Alain de Botton
A broad margin of leisure is as beautiful in a man's life as in a book. Haste makes waste, no less in life than in housekeeping. Keep the time, observe the hours of the universe, not of the cars.
