Always accept good fortune with grace and humility.

Why should poetry have to make sense?

Charlie Chaplin

It will free man from the remaining chains, the chains of gravity which still tie him to this planet.

Wernher Von Braun

Man becomes great exactly in the degree in which he works for the welfare of his fellow-men.

Mahatma Gandhi

When your dreams tire, they go underground and out of kindness that's where they stay.

Libby Houston

The feeling of awed wonder that science can give us is one of the highest experiences of which the human psyche is capable. It is a deep aesthetic passion to rank with the finest that music and poetry can deliver. It is truly one of the things that make life worth living and it does so, if anything, more effectively if it convinces us that the time we have for living is quite finite.

Richard Dawkins

Like a morning dream, life becomes more and more bright the longer we live, and the reason of everything appears more clear. What has puzzled us before seems less mysterious, and the crooked paths look straighter as we approach the end.

Jean Paul

Restore human legs as a means of travel. Pedestrians rely on food for fuel and need no special parking facilities.

Lewis Mumford

My dad's passion was to teach adults to read so they could read to their kids.

Jennie Garth

The real funny thing is, whether the demons exist or not at all in your life, it's nothing to do whether you believe or not to one, none nor both of them.

Toba Beta

As societies grow decadent, the language grows decadent, too. Words are used to disguise, not to illuminate, action: you liberate a city by destroying it. Words are to confuse, so that at election time people will solemnly vote against their own interests.

Gore Vidal

The wronged side is always the safest.

Sibbes

I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognized wiser than oneself.

Marlene Dietrich
