Hold firmly that our faith is identical with that of the ancients. Deny this, and you dissolve the unity of the Church.

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.

Wendell Willkie

Live and work but do not forget to play, to have fun in life and really enjoy it.

Eileen Caddy

You teach your daughters the diameters of the planets and wonder when you are done that they do not delight in your company.

Samuel Johnson

The chief condition on which, life, health and vigor depend on, is action. It is by action that an organism develops its faculties, increases its energy, and attains the fulfillment of its destiny.

Pierre Joseph Proudhon

I don't believe in superheroes but I love Batman movies. There's a part of every person that is entertained by the idealistic, the fantastic.

Aisha Tyler

In general, the short game has been most effective. Besides working hard on it I always used my imagination with a touch of feel in my hands. You should hit the ball according to what your mind dictates but previously you should visualise the shot. This can be achieved with extremely high concentration. All the difficult shots are hit with the hands. I have hit shots simply by visualising the run of the ball. I had no problem in doing this because my mind clearly indicated I could not miss. I do not stand out any particular shot because it is necessary to believe in yourself to overcome any difficulties.

Seve Ballesteros, Responding to

Kurt Vonnegut

To have striven, to have made the effort, to have been true to certain ideals - this alone is worth the struggle.

William Osler

No sooner met but they looked; no sooner looked but they loved; no sooner loved but they sighed; no sooner sighed but they asked one another the reason; no sooner knew the reason but they sought the remedy; and in these degrees have they made a pair of stairs to marriage, which they will climb incontinent, or else be incontinent before marriage.

William Shakespeare

Then, wearied by the uncertainty and difficulties with which each scheme appeared to be attended, he bent up his mind to the strong effort of shaking off his love, like dew-drops from the lion's mane, and resuming those studies and that career of life which his unrequited affection had so long and so fruitlessly interrupted. In this last resolution he endeavoured to fortify himself by every argument which pride, as well as reason, could suggest.

Sir Walter Scott, The Antiquary

Nature never did betray the heart that loved her.

William Wordsworth
