Wisdom I know is social. She seeks her fellows. But Beauty is jealous, and illy bears the presence of a rival.
Winning children (who appear so guileless) are children who have discovered how effective charm and modesty and a delicately calculated spontaneity are in winning what they want.
Thornton Wilder
For what human ill does dawn not seem to be alternative?
The comic spirit is given to us in order that we may analyze, weigh, and clarify things in us which nettle us, or which we are outgrowing, or trying to reshape.
Every writer is necessarily a critic -- that is, each sentence is a skeleton accompanied by enormous activity of rejection; and each selection is governed by general principles concerning truth, force, beauty, and so on. The critic that is in every fabulist is like the iceberg -- nine-tenths of him is under water.
It's been my experience that every time I think I know where it's at, it's usually somewhere else.
Blake Edwards

Each cloud-capt mountain is a holy altar; An organ breathes in every grove; And the full heart 's a Psalter, Rich in deep hymn of gratitude and love.
Thomas Hood
We have made people in the industry and the people that see us aware that God loves them.
Della Reese
The isness of things is well worth studying; but it is their whyness that makes life worth living.
William Beebe
Hark! Hark! my soul, angelic songs are swelling O'er earth's green fields and ocean's wave-beat shore; How sweet the truth those blessed strains are telling Of that new life when sin shall be no more.

KEATS: _Lamia,_ Pt. ii., Line 1.
The happiness you feel is in direct proportion to the love you give.
Oprah Winfrey
We all fight for money, some for power, but most of all for love. But me, I fight to become a champion.
Jonathan Anthony Burkett
If you are well-to-do and can maintain your household, love your wife in your home according to good custom...Make her happy while you are alive, for she is land profitable to her lord.
Ptahhotep
Every Gag I tell must be based on truth. No matter how much I may exaggerate it, it must have a certain amount of Truth.... Now Rumor travels Faster, but it don't stay put as long as Truth.
Will Rogers
There are people who are generic. They make generic responses and they expect generic answers. They live inside a box and they think people who don't fit into their box are weird. But I'll tell you what, generic people are the weird people. They are like genetically-manipulated plants growing inside a laboratory, like indistinguishable faces, like droids. Like ignorance.
C. JoyBell C.

Milan Kundera
This is perhaps the hardest truth of any to grasp. Do we wake up every morning amazed that we are loved by God?
David Ford
Very well. He'd lighten up. As a matter of fact, he felt as light as the bubbly froth that flew from the lips of the waves. Whatever else his long, unprecedented life might have been, it had been fun. Fun! If others should find that appraisal shallow, frivolous, so be it. To him, it seemed now to largely have been some form of play. And he vowed that in the future he would strive to keep that sense of play more in mind, for he'd grown convinced that play--more than piety, more than charity or vigilance--was what allowed human beings to transcend evil.
Tom Robbins
Mourning after an absent God is an evidence of a love as strong, as rejoicing in a present one.
Frederick William Robertson
Love is so holy, so confusing. It makes a man anxious, tormented. Love, how can I define it?
Gao Xingjian
This legislation confronts the human truth that the need for clean water knows no borders, and proper management and intervention can be a currency for peace and international cooperation.

Is there any conflict between science and religion? There is no conflict in the mind of God, but often there is conflict in the minds of men.

To take those fools in clerical garb seriously is to show them too much honor.
Albert Einstein
As another has well said, to handicap a student by teaching him that his black face is a curse and that his struggle to change his condition is hopeless is the worst sort of lynching.
Carter G. Woodson
Look for the heart in a man before you look at what he has.
The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers.

I lifted my glass to my lips when suddenly I stopped and felt all my blood rush to my heart. This is what I heard: What's the theme of the novel you're working on? Truth, replied Pierre Villiers. What? exclaimed his friend. A succession of human beings caught just as they are.
Henri Barbusse
