The greater part of humanity is too much harassed and fatigued by the struggle with want, to rally itself for a new and sterner struggle with error.
The reason death sticks so closely to life isn't biological necessity- its envy. Life is so beautiful that death has fallen in love with it, a jealous, possessive love that grabs at what it can.
Yann Martel
I would rather be a poor man in a garret with plenty of books than a king who did not love reading.
Thomas B. Macaulay
You, dear reader, have now two accounts to choose between and there can be no doubt which is most probable.
Alasdair Gray
I grew up on the golden age of children's TV.
Edward Norton
What you perceive, your observations, feelings, interpretations, are all your truth. Your truth is important. Yet it is not The Truth.
Linda Ellinor
Make the most of the best and the least of the worst.
Robert Louis Stevenson
When you die, you just die. No ghost, no reincarnation, no heaven. People want to believe that their souls live on or whatever, but that's only because they can't handle the idea of the world going on without them.
Leila Sales
As you walk through forestsor the meadows of your mind,Stop and talk to those you fearGood friendships you may find
Stephen Cosgrove
Monotony collapses time; novelty unfolds it. You can exercise daily and eat healthily and live a long life, while experiencing a short one. If you spend your life sitting in a cubicle and passing papers, one day is bound to blend unmemorably into the next - and disappear. That's why it's so important to change routines regularly, and take vacations to exotic locales, and have as many new experiences as possible that can serve to anchor our memories. Creating new memories stretches out psychological time, and lengthens our perception of our lives.
Joshua Foer
So the story of man runs in a dreary circle, because he is not yet master of the earth that holds him.
Will Durant
Why do I find it hard to write the next line?
Gary Kemp
Subjectivity is strange to Science, while Relativity is an objective part of it.
Felix Alba-Juez
Man has such a predilection for systems and abstract deductions that he is ready to distort the truth intentionally, he is ready to deny the evidence of his senses only to justify his logic
Fyodor Dostoyevsky
With infinite wisdom and care your life is constantly sustained because Nature flows through you.
Michael J. Cohen
I worked so hard for that first kissAnd a heart dont forget something like thatLike an old photographTime can make a feeling fadeBut the memory of a first loveNever fades away.
Tim McGraw
It's a mood record. Like one night you're going to be down in the dumps depressed because you're thinking about your ex-boyfriend and the next moment you're gonna be like screw him you know? And the next one you're saying to yourself God I'm in love.
Willa Ford
The answers are what they are. Just because you don't like them doesn't mean they aren't true.
Megan Chance
I try to practice with my life.
Herbie Hancock
There are only certain intervals of time when life of any sort is possible in an expanding universe and we can practise astronomy only during that habitable time interval in cosmic history.
John D. Barrow
Dieting is the most potent political sedative in women's history; a quietly mad population is a tractable one.
Naomi Wolf
IF her life had taught her anything, it was that you never really knew what people had going on beneath the surface. People were shit. The only difference between them and animals was people felt the need to hide it.
Stacia Kane
Two people in love, alone, isolated from the world, that's beautiful.
Milan Kundera
I would say that all our sciences are the material that has to be mythologized. A mythology gives spiritual import - what one might call rather the psychological, inward import, of the world of nature round about us, as understood today. There's no real conflict between science and religion ... What is in conflict is the science of 2000 BC ... and the science of the 20th century AD.
Joseph Campbell
Destiny is real. And she's not mild-mannered. She will come around and hit you in the face and knock you over and before you know what hit you, you're naked- stripped of everything you thought you knew and everything you thought you didn't know- and there you are! A bloody nose, bruises all over you, and naked. And it's the most beautiful thing.
C. JoyBell C.
Perhaps The truth depends on a walk around a lake, A composing as the body tires, a stop To see hepatica, a stop to watch A definition growing certain and A wait within that certainty, a rest In the swags of pine-trees bordering the lake. Perhaps there are times of inherent excellence
Wallace Stevens
eorum omnium actiones in se invicem
Isaac Newton
One is never over-dressed or underdressed with a Little Black Dress.
Karl Lagerfeld
You won't find the truth of life in morbidity, only in hope.
Dean Koontz
I look at my father, who was in many ways an unhappy person, but who, not long before he got sick, said that the greatest source of satisfaction in his life had been going to work in the company of other workers.
Jonathan Franzen
No one judges the mistakes of love - so long as they are accompanied by sincere repentance - no one judges them with more understanding than a woman at once irreproachable and sensitive.
Andre Maurois
I love the fact that it's not only about Star Trek, but about science fiction in general, and science.
Rene Auberjonois
When you are covering a life-or-death struggle, as British reporters were in 1940, it is legitimate and right to go along with military censorship, and in fact in situations like that there wouldn't be any press without the censorship.
Kate Adie
Genetic code is a divine writing.
Toba Beta
Creativity leads others to where I lead you, to an unseen beauty, so ineffable its very beauty destroys itself...
Fola
When man becomes greater than nature, nature, which gave us birth, will respond.
Loren Eiseley
The better part of valour is discretion.
William Shakespeare
I'd love to own a bakery at some point. My grandmother could help me run it - she is an amazing baker! I'd also love to do a cookbook.
Jordin Sparks
I cherish the creation of public space and services, especially health, housing and the comprehensive education system which dared to give so many of us ideas 'above our station.'
Frances O'Grady
I think there's only one or two films where I've had all the financial support I needed. All the rest, I wish I'd had the money to shoot another ten days.
Martin Scorsese
I think Democrats are right. We fight for the American dream, for the environment, for privacy rights, a woman's right to choose, a good public education system.
