It is bad luck to fall out of a thirteenth story window on Friday.

If the skies fall, one may hope to catch larks.

Francois Rabelais

Make your problems becomeopportunities instead ofobstacles.

Ifeanyi Enoch Onuoha

I am told that today rather more than 60 per cent of the men who go to university go on a Government grant. This is a new class that has entered upon the scene. It is the white-collar proletariat. They do not go to university to acquire culture but to get a job, and when they have got one, scamp it. They have no manners and are woefully unable to deal with any social predicament. Their idea of a celebration is to go to a public house and drink six beers. They are mean, malicious and envious . They are scum.

W. Somerset Maugham

Do nothing hastily but catching of fleas.

Thomas Fuller

If you do not change direction, you may end up where you are heading.

Lao Tzu

We carry our homes within us which enables us to fly.

John Milton Cage

I wanted to be a rich, famous rock-and-roll star in that order.

Dee Snider

I don't know what it is about fecundity that so appalls. I suppose it is the teeming evidence that birth and growth, which we value, are ubiquitous and blind, that life itself is so astonishingly cheap, that nature is as careless as it is bountiful, and that with extravagance goes a crushing waste that will one day include our own cheap lives.

Annie Dillard

If what he said was the truth, it broke her heart. If what he said was a lie, it was broken anyway.

Christine Feehan

New Domestic Animals. I want to have my lion and my eagle about me, that I may always have hints and premonitions concerning the amount of my strength or weakness. Must I look down on them today, and be afraid of them? And will the hour come once more when they will look up to me, and tremble?

Friedrich Nietzsche

But if you look at WorldCom, which is the biggest failure to date, they grew dramatically, they were buying companies that were bigger than they were and they were doing it off inflated stock.

Don Nickles

Physical courage, which engages all danger, will make a person brave in one way; and moral courage, which defies all opinion, will make a person brave in another.

Charles Caleb Colton
