A strange justice that is bounded by a river! Truth on this side of the Pyrenees, error on the other side.
It's not too good to have this attitude in F1. It could be a disadvantage.
Alain Prost
A man has to learn that he cannot command things, but that he can command himself that he cannot coerce the wills of others, but that he can mold and master his own will: and things serve him who serves Truth people seek guidance of him who is master of himself.
James Allen
Also, to be honest, my dad wanted me to be an athlete. And I think all sons want to prove something to their dad. So now, aged 35, I want to see what I can achieve physically.
Joe Manganiello
The day of the wedding went like these things generally do, full of anxious moments interspersed with black comedy.
Janet Street-Porter
And of all illumination which human reason can give, none is comparable to the discovery of what we are, our nature, our obligations, what happiness we are capable of, and what are the means of attaining it.
Adam Weishaupt
There is never just one thing that leads to success for anyone. I feel it always a combination of passion, dedication, hard work, and being in the right place at the right time.
Lauren Conrad
My job requires me to put on a little dress and run around the streets of New York in heels. But I also had the financial means to hire a yoga teacher to come to my house while my sitter watched the newborn. For 95 percent of the world, that's not realistic.
Sarah Jessica Parker
Occasionally I find a travel book that is both illuminating and entertaining, where vivid writing and research replace self-indulgence and sloppy prose.
Arthur Smith
At a certain point, I just put the building and the art impulse together. I decided that building was a legitimate way to make sculpture.
Martin Puryear
My personal feeling, if I can interject a political note, is that I don't think it is right that basic health care is a privilege. It shouldn't be. It should be a right of all human beings. And certainly in the richest country in the world.
Bryan Cranston
I think because I became a mom later in life, everything in life means more.
Mariska Hargitay
Nature chooses who will be transgender individuals don't choose this.
Mercedes Ruehl
Complexity is your enemy. Any fool can make something complicated. It is hard to make something simple.
Richard Branson
If you give people nothingness, they can ponder what can be achieved from that nothingness.
Tadao Ando
The dead cannot cry out for justice. It is a duty of the living to do so for them.
Lois McMaster Bujold
The secret of my success is a two word answer: Know people.
Harvey S. Firestone
You know, I don't think any mother aims to be a single mom. I didn't wish for that, but it happened.
Charlize Theron
The man who fails because he aims astray or because he does not aim at all is to be found everywhere.
Frank Swinnerton
Knowledge without practice is like a glass eye, all for show, and nothing for use.
Swinnock
There's a lot to be said for the fellow who doesn't say it himself.
Maurice Switzer
The surest way to establish your credit is to work yourself into the position of not needing any.
Mathematics is not a book confined within a cover and bound between brazen clasps, whose contents it needs only patience to ransack; it is not a mine, whose treasures may take long to reduce into possession, but which fill only a limited number of veins and lodes; it is not a soil, whose fertility can be exhausted by the yield of successive harvests; it is not a continent or an ocean, whose area can be mapped out and its contour defined: it is limitless as that space which it finds too narrow for its aspirations; its possibilities are as infinite as the worlds which are forever crowding in and multiplying upon the astronomer's gaze.
James Joseph Sylvester
I have never come across a technology that doesn't change. This is inevitable. You have to adapt your systems as technology develops.
Gijs de Vries
What we ask of him is, that he should find out for us more than we can find out for ourselves. He must have the passion of a lover.
Arthur Symons
I do think that a general liberal arts education is very important, particularly in an uncertain changing world.
Steve Case
Winning isn't everything, but losing is nothing.
Red Symons
Lord, confound this surly sister, blight her brow with blotch and blister, cramp her larynx, lung and liver, in her guts a galling give her.
J. M. Synge
The grief of the keen is no personal complaint for the death of one woman over eighty years, but seems to contain the whole passionate rage that lurks somewhere in every native of the island. In this cry of pain the inner consciousness of the people seems to lay itself bare for an instant, and to reveal the mood of beings who feel their isolation in the face of a universe that wars on them with winds and seas.
I'm a good scholar when it comes to reading but a blotting kind of writer when you give me a pen.
In the middle classes the gifted son of a family is always the poorest -- usually a writer or artist with no sense for speculation -- and in a family of peasants, where the average comfort is just over penury, the gifted son sinks also, and is soon a tramp on the roadside.
In a good play every speech should be as fully flavored as a nut or apple.
As a man has no right to kill one of his children if it is diseased or insane, so a man who has made the gradual and conscious expression of his personality in literature the aim of his life, has no right to suppress himself any carefully considered work which seemed good enough when it was written. Suppression, if it is deserved, will come rapidly enough from the same causes that suppress the unworthy members of a man's family.
There are times that when truth and kindness conflict one ought to chose kindness, especially when a little honesty is better than a lot.
Leroy Jack Syrop
In the animal kingdom, the rule is, eat or be eaten; in the human kingdom, define or be defined.
Thomas Szasz
Few are there that will leave the secure seclusion of the scholar's life, the peaceful walks of literature and learning, to stand out a target for the criticism of unkind and hostile minds.
Felix Adler
Doubt is to certainty as neurosis is to psychosis. The neurotic is in doubt and has fears about persons and things; the psychotic has convictions and makes claims about them. In short, the neurotic has problems, the psychotic has solutions.
It is easier to do one's duty to others than to one's self. If you do your duty to others, you are considered reliable. If you do your duty to yourself, you are considered selfish.
Every act of conscious learning requires the willingness to suffer an injury to one's self-esteem. That is why young children, before they are aware of their own self-importance, learn so easily; and why older persons, especially if vain or important, cannot learn at all.
Two wrongs don't make a right, but they make a good excuse.
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the na?ve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but do not forget.
