Nothing is a matter of life and death except life and death.
He did not know that the Old One was his father, for such a relationship was utterly beyond his understanding, but as he looked at the emaciated body he felt a dim disquiet that was the ancestor of sadness.
Arthur C. Clarke
She had a way of moving that moved him as much as music, which was what moved him most of all. Surely the spirit animating that pearless body must be unusual too? Why would nature make a vessel like that, if not to contain something still more valuable?
J.K. Rowling
Back then, my idol was Bugs Bunny, because I saw a cartoon of him playing ball - you know, the one where he plays every position himself with nobody else on the field but him? Now that I think of it, Bugs is still my idol. You have to love a ballplayer like that.
Nomar Garciaparra
Postmodernists believe that truth is myth, and myth, truth. This equation has its roots in pop psychology. The same people also believe that emotions are a form of reality. There used to be another name for this state of mind. It used to be called psychosis.
Brad Holland
Oh, I was only twenty four hours from Tulsa, Ah, only one day away from your arms; I hate to do this to you but I love somebody new, what can I do? And I can never, never, never... go home again.
Hal David
IF I can stop one heart from breaking, I shall not live in vain; If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain, Or help one fainting robin Unto his nest again, I shall not live in vain.
Emily Dickinson
Saat kita dibenci, itu berarti kita menonjol di antara yang lain.
Yoshichi Shimada
Beauty, Inspiration, Magic, Spellbound, Enchantment, as well as the concepts of Serenity, Silence, Intimacy and Amazement. They have never ceased to be my guiding lights.
Luis Barragan
In all the relations of life and death, we are met by the color line.
Frederick Douglass
I can't for the life of me see that by being permissive you actually assist anyone.
Jenny Shipley
The sciences of today are business enterprises run on business principles. Research in large institutes is not guided by Truth and Reason but by the most rewarding fashion, and the great minds of today increasingly turn to where the money is - which means military matters.
Paul Karl Feyerabend
Man made God in his own image...
Eckhart Tolle
Antonio: Will you stay no longer? nor will you not that I go with you? Sebastian: By your patience, no. My stars shine darkly over me; the malignancy of my fate might, perhaps, distemper yours; therefore I shall crave of you your leave that I may bear my evils alone. It were a bad recompense for your love to lay any of them on you.
William Shakespeare
Friendship is thinking of the other person first.
George Alexiou
As long as scientists are free to pursue the truth wherever it may lead, there will be a flow of new scientific knowledge to those who can apply it to practical problems.
Vannevar Bush
You have just dined, and however scrupulously the slaughterhouse is concealed in the graceful distance of miles, there is complicity.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Assim, para recapitular a nossa discussão do valor da filosofia: a filosofia é de estudar não por causa de quaisquer respostas definitivas ? s suas questões, dado que nenhumas respostas definitivas podem, em regra, ser conhecidas como verdadeiras, mas antes por causa das próprias questões; porque estas questões alargam a nossa concepção do que é possÃvel, enriquecem a nossa imaginação intelectual e diminuem a confiança dogmática que fecham a mente contra a especulação; mas acima de tudo porque, através da grandeza do universo que a filosofia contempla, a mente também se torna grandiosa, e torna-se capaz dessa união com o universo que constitui o seu bem maior.
Bertrand Russell
Punctuality is a quality the need of which is bound up with social co-operation. It has nothing to do with the relation of the soul to God, or with mystic insight, or with any of the matters with which the more elevated and spiritual moralists are co
All faiths constitute a revelation of Truth, but all are imperfect and liable to error
Mahatma Gandhi
Use the right word and not its second cousin
Mark Twain
Friendship is far more tragic than love. It lasts longer.
Oscar Wilde
Trio life has the wonderful advantage of not being alone, the pleasure of having success with two other people and the solace when you don't have success.
Bernard Greenhouse
You'll never like me, but you'll always love me.
Coco J. Ginger
Behind a great success, there was a great failure
Michael Hermanto
... and shame is a poor counterfeit of humility. Shame is the fruit of humiliation that works against the truth. p.52
Bill Johnson
Some of the best health care services are free or cost very little and are even available to millionaires but hardly anyone knows they exist.
Matthew Lesko
We have increasingly fewer and fewer journalists who have any military experience and understand what life is like in the military and in combat.
Jim Lehrer
What really dissatisfies in American civilisation is the want of the interesting, a want due chiefly to the want of those two great elements of the interesting, which are elevation and beauty.
Matthew Arnold
If the entire course of evolution were compressed into a single year, the earliest bacteria would appear at the end of March, but we wouldn't see the first human ancestors until 6 a.m. on December 31st. The golden age of Greece, about 500 BC, would occur just thirty seconds before midnight.
Jerry A. Coyne
I think he had a strange, passionate devotion to the truth and a horror at what he saw going on.
Ben Bradlee
I finally figured out that not every crisis can be managed. As much as we want to keep ourselves safe, we can't protect ourselves from everything. If we want to embrace life, we also have to embrace chaos.
Susan Elizabeth Phillips
Superficiality is the curse of the modern world.
Matthew Kelly
Diazapam (that's valium), temazepam, lithium, ECT, HRT - how long must I stay on this stuff? Don't give me anymore!
Morrissey
I love to eat, and if I could, I'd eat every second of my life.
Maria Sharapova
I've had young women come to me and say that before they watched 'Voyager' it didn't really occur to them that they could be successful in a higher position in the field of science; girls going to MIT, girls pursuing astrophysics with a view to a career in NASA.
Kate Mulgrew
It'a an immense joy to be here today. I have received from millions of male and female Brazilians the most important mission of my life. This fact, beyond myself, is a demonstration of the democratic development of our country because for the first time a woman will rule Brazil.
Dilma Rousseff
Getting something and having the wits to use it...those are two different things.
Rick Riordan
Adoration isn't love. I adore Annabella, but I don't love her; and I love thee, Milicent, but I don't adore thee.
Anne Bronte
To be human is to be beautifully flawed.
Eric Wilson
