Certain things in life simply have to be experienced -and never explained. Love is such a thing.

This is the highest wisdom that I own; freedom and life are earned by those alone who conquer them each day anew.

Johann von Goethe

A man cannot be said to succeed in this life who does not satisfy one friend.

Henry David Thoreau

Woman's dearest delight is to wound Man's self-conceit, though Man's dearest delight is to gratify hers

George Bernard Shaw

The cook was a good cook, as cooks go; and as cooks go, she went.

Hector Hugh Munro

One of the chief obstacles to intelligence is credulity, and credulity could be enormously diminished by instructions as to the prevalent forms of mendacity. Credulity is a greater evil in the present day than it ever was before, because, owing to the growth of education, it is much easier than it used to be to spread misinformation, and, owing to democracy, the spread of misinformation is more important than in former times to the holders of power.

Bertrand Russell

Many people think of knowledge as money, They would like knowledge, but do not want to face the perseverance and self-denial that goes into the acquisition of it.

John Morley

Joys are our wings, sorrows our spurs.

Jean Paul

What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.

Kurt Vonnegut

The opposite of an idealist is too often a man without love.

Albert Camus

Death is nothing at all, I have only slipped away into the next room, I am I and you are you; Whatever we were to each other, That we still are. Call me by my old familiar name, Speak to me in the easy way which you always used, Put no difference in your tone, Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow. Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we shared together. Let my name ever be the household word that it always was. Let it be spoken without effect, without the trace of a shadow on it. Life means all that it ever meant, It is the same as it ever was, there is unbroken continuity. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? I am waiting for you, for an interval, somewhere very near, just around thecorner. All is well.

Henry Scott Holland, Canon of St

If this is philosophy it is at any rate a philosophy that is not in its right mind.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

Don't steal; thou it never thus compete successfully in business. Cheat.

Ambrose Bierce
