The fortune which nobody sees makes a person happy and unenvied.
Pain is good, I'd say, when it's incidental to Love. In 'I give up my life for my friend' it is my friend, not my death, that matters. And sometimes I needn't give up my life for him, I can live for him, and with him, and the power of the spirit is then equally manifested, I should think.
E. M. Forster
When you get up in the morning, you have two choices - either to be happy or to be unhappy. Just choose to be happy
Norman Vincent Peale
Part of the strength of science is that it has tended to attract individuals who love knowledge and the creation of it.
Phillip Hauge Abelson
What happens if a car comes? We die.
Nicholas Sparks
Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now. Thus in France the emetic was once forbidden as a medicine, and the potatoe as an article of food.
Thomas Jefferson
Circles, like the soul, are neverending and turn round and round without a stop
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Think of the patience God has had for you and let it resonate to others. If you want a more patient world, let patience be your motto
Steve Maraboli
Partings are the beginnings of new meetings.Beginnings happen because there are endings.
Natsuki Takaya
Science can only ascertain what is, but not what should be, and outside of its domain value judgments of all kinds remain necessary.
Albert Einstein
When the number of factors coming into play in a phenomenological complex is too large scientific method in most cases fails.
Try again. Fail again. Fail better.
Samuel Beckett
Truth is most beautiful undraped.
Arthur Schopenhauer
In Afghanistan, this is the problem, because everybody holds a piece of that mirror, and they all look at it and claim that they hold the entire truth.
Mohsen Makhmalbaf
We will not think noble because we are not noble. We will not live in beautiful harmony because there is no such thing in this world, nor should there be. We promise only to do our best and to live out our lives. Dear God, that's all we can promise in truth.
Lillian Hellman
For he today that sheds his blood with me shall be my brother tomorrow.
William Shakespeare
Since we are not yet fully comfortable with the idea that people from the next village are as human as ourselves, it is presumptuous in the extreme to suppose we could ever look at sociable, tool-making creatures who arose from other evolutionary paths and see not beasts but brothers, not rivals by fellow pilgrims journeying to the shrine of intelligence. Yet that is what I see, or yearn to see. The difference between raman and varelse is not in the creature judged but in the creature judging, and when we declare an alien species to be raman, it does not mean that they have passed a threshold of moral maturity. It means that we have.
Orson Scott Card
Conscience, man's moral medicine chest
Mark Twain
Riza: Without his Alchemy he's just...Jean: A little brat who swears a lotMaes: An arrogant pipsqueakRoy: Useless. Just uselessAlphonse: Sorry big brother, I don't know how to add to that...Ed *starts to cry*: YOU'RE ALL PICKING ON ME!!!
Hiromu Arakawa
The forest has shrunkAnd fear has expanded,The forests have dwindled,There are less animals now, less courage and less lightning, less beauty and the moon lies bare, deflowered by force and then abandoned.
Visar Zhiti
The family provides the army and navy with the best men and boys that it possesses. And, as we have seen, education and science too are becoming means to the ends sought by the military.
C. Wright Mills
I decided during my teens that I wasn't going to have the life of a concert pianist, much to the chagrin of a lot of people who had put a lot of money into me!
Cy Coleman
That which is now called natural philosophy, embracing the whole circle of science, of which astronomy occupies the chief place, is the study of the works of God, and of the power and wisdom of God in his works, and is the true theology.
Thomas Paine
Compete like you cannot fail.
Steve Backley
Imagine that. You just can't let your entire life go by worrying about your damned thighs. You'd never find happiness.
Sarah Gilbert
There is a God,there always had been.I see Him here,in the eyes of the people in this corridor of desperation.This is the real house of God,this is where those who have lost the God will find Him.There is a God,there has to be, and now I'll pray,I'll pray that He will forgive that I have neglected Him all of these years, forgive that I've betrayed,lied and sinned with impunity only to turn to Him now in my hour of need,I pray that He is as merciful,benevolent and gracious as His book says He is.
Khaled Hosseini
Then I wondered, what if?What if he kissed me? What if he told me I was beautiful? What if he told me he loved me?What would I say in return?
Markelle Grabo
Unless their use by readers bring them to life, books are indeed dead things.
Lawrence Clark Powell
How dare you settle for less when the world has made it so easy for you to be remarkable?
Seth Godin
Dear, Missus, Mister - I beg you never to give thoughts to war, in no way, not to work for it, not by writing nor by reading about it nor by looking at the pictures nor on the television about it. Not in any way ever, at all. Not by being a soldier, sailor, airman, work in factory or above all at atom bombs. Above all at atom bombs. No obligation for this, dear fellow creature. Signed Your Fellow Creature.''P.S.,' said Gerald slowly, without turning from the window, 'If we all do this, we shall succeed.
Stella Gibbons
You don't have to make something that people call art. Living is an artistic activity, there is an art to getting through the day.
Viggo Mortensen
In life there is reality and there is what you want in life. If you took a moment to step back and forget about everything that is going on that doesn't really mean that much anyway, you might be able to figure out how to get what you want and what has been stopping you. For every problem there is a solution, for every... need God has provided the answer, and for every want there is a way. Reality is what you make it.
Joshua Hartzell
Ten years of rejection slips is nature's way of telling you to stop writing.
Geis, R.
In simple hearts the feeling for the beauty and grandeur of nature is a hundred-fold stronger and more vivid than in us, ecstatic composers of narratives in words and on paper.
Mikhail Lermontov
Heavenly bodies are nests of invisible birds.
Dejan Stojanovic
Time is on the side of the oppressed today, it's against the oppressor. Truth is on the side of the oppressed today, it's against the oppressor. You don't need anything else.
Malcolm X
For like a shaft, clear and cold, the thought pierced him that in the end the Shadow was only a small and passing thing: there was light and high beauty for ever beyond its reach.
J.R.R. Tolkien
The one who will be found in trial capable of great acts of love is ever the one who is always doing considerate small ones.
Frederick William Robertson
In the experimental sciences, the epochs of the most brilliant progress are almost always separated by long intervals of almost absolute repose.
François Arago
To know and love one other human being is the root of all wisdom.
Evelyn Waugh
Uma virtude deve ser nossa invenção, nossa defesa e nossa necessidade pessoais: tomada em qualquer outro sentido, não passa de um perigo. Aquilo que não é uma condição vital é prejudicial ? vida: uma virtude que não existe senão por causa dum sentimento de respeito pela ideia de «virtude», como Kant a queria, é perigosa. A «virtude», o «dever», o «bem em si», o bem como carácter da impersonalidade do valor geral - quimeras onde se exprime a degenerescência, o último enfraquecimento da vida, a chinesice de Conisberga.
Friedrich Nietzsche
