Every fact is related on one side to sensation, and, on the other, to morals. The game of thought is, on the appearance of one of these two sides, to find the other; given the upper, to find the under side.

Fashions are born and they die too quickly for anyone to learn to love them.

Bettina Ballard

The most happy marriage I can imagine to myselfwould be the union of a deaf man to a blind woman.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

As a boy I had a clear image of the Almighty: He had a tail coat and pinstriped trousers, black, slicked-down hair and an aquiline nose. On the whole, I was probably a rather strange child, and I wonder what my life might have been like if I'd met a decent theologian when I was nine.

Terry Pratchett

This is just what I have thought when I have seen slaves at work - they seem to go through the motions of labor without putting strength into them. They keep their powers in reserve for their own use at night, perhaps.

Frederick Law Olmsted

You must love in such a way that the person you love feels FREE.

Thich Nhat Hanh

True happiness comes from the joy of deeds well done, the zest of creating things new.

Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Conrad Black

A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the stairs a step at a time.

Mark Twain

A glorious Church is like a magnificent feast; there is all the variety that may be, but every one chooses out a dish or two that he likes, and lets the rest alone: how glorious soever the Church is, every one chooses out of it his own religion, by which he governs himself, and lets the rest alone.

John Selden

Office without pay makes thieves.

Proverb

Every generation enjoys the use of a vast hoard bequeathed to it by antiquity, and transmits that hoard, augmented by fresh acquisitions, to future ages.

Thomas Babington Macaulay, Histo

If you are caught on a golf course during a storm and are afraid of lightning, hold up a 1-iron. Not even God can hit a 1-iron.

Lee Trevino
