The soul, like the body, lives by what it feeds on.
He had only one vanity; he thought he could give advice better than any other person
Mark Twain
life is either a reproducible, almost commonplace manifestation of matter, given certain conditions, or a miracle. Too many steps are involved to allow for something in between.

Booboo Stewart
The difference between a mountain and a molehill is your perspective.
Al Neuharth
The sciences do not try to explain, they hardly even try to interpret, they mainly make models. By a model is meant a mathematical construct which, with the addition of certain verbal interpretations describes observed phenomena. The justification of such a mathematical construct is solely and precisely that it is expected to work.
John von Neumann
The commercial class has always mistrusted verbal brilliancy and wit, deeming such qualities, perhaps with some justice, frivolous and unprofitable.
Dorothy Nevill
As for the forces, electromagnetism and gravity we experience in everyday life. But the weak and strong forces are beyond our ordinary experience. So in physics, lots of the basic building blocks take 20th- or perhaps 21st-century equipment to explore.
Edward Witten
The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

Arthur W. Newcomb
The basic principle of turning ideas into big money is to seize every money building idea and work with it until the idea fits your purpose, decide on the steps needed to make it work, and then proceed to do it as soon as possible.
Duane Newcomb
I don't mind occasionally having to reinvent a wheel; I don't even mind using someone's reinvented wheel occasionally. But it helps a lot if it is symmetric, contains no fewer than ten sides, and has the axle centered. I do tire of trapezoidal wheels with offset axles.
Joseph Newcomer
I love the male body, it's better designed than the male mind.
Andrea Newman
It is as absurd to argue men, as to torture them, into believing.
Cardinal J. Newman
Nothing would be done at all if one waited until one could do it so well that no one could find fault with it.
Kids are smart. Knowledge is power. Let them figure things out. Don't turn into that grown-up who they won't come to.
Lauren Myracle
Virtue is its own reward, and brings with it the truest and highest pleasure; but if we cultivate it only for pleasure's sake, we are selfish, not religious, and will never gain the pleasure, because we can never have the virtue.
Let us act on what we have, since we have not what we wish.
A good composer is slowly discovered a bad composer is slowly found out.

Francis W. Newman
If we are intended for great ends, we are called to great hazards.
Henry Cardinal Newman
The Theory of Groups is a branch of mathematics in which one does something to something and then compares the result with the result obtained from doing the same thing to something else, or something else to the same thing.
James Newman
You are an extremely valuable, worthwhile, significant person even though your present circumstances may have you felling otherwise.
We are accountable only to ourselves for what happens to us in our lives.
Mildred Newman
A good marriage is at least 80 percent good luck in finding the right person at the right time. The rest is trust.
Nanette Newman
Life at the top is financially rewarding, spiritually draining, physically exhausting, and short.
Peter C. Newman

A duty dodged is like a debt unpaid; it is only deferred, and we must come back and settle the account at last.
Joseph Fort Newton
People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges.
We cannot tell what may happen to us in the strange medley of life. But we can decide what happens in us -- how we can take it, what we do with it -- and that is what really counts in the end. How to take the raw stuff of life and make it a thing of worth and beauty -- that is the test of living.
Money is the sixth sense that makes it possible to enjoy the other five.
Richard Ney
Developing a prototype early is the number one goal for our designers, or anyone else who has an idea, for that matter. We don't trust it until we can see it and feel it.
Win Ng
