The mass of mankind are evidently slavish in their tastes, preferring a life suitable to beasts

Our life is composed greatly from dreams, from the unconscious, and they must be brought into connection with action. They must be woven together.

Anais Nin

Our life is like a land journey: too even and easy and dull over long distances across the plains, too hard and painful up the steep grades; but on the summits of the mountain, you have a magnificent view - and feel exalted - and your eyes are full of happy tears - and you want to sing - and you wish you had wings! And then - you can't stay there, but you must continue your journey - you begin climbing down the other side, so busy with your footholds that your summit experience is forgotten.

Lloyd Douglas

It's easier to fake it. When you fake it for sixteen years, it becomes part of you, something you don't think about.

Alex Flinn

Anger may repast with thee for an hour, but not repose for a night the continuance of anger is hatred, the continuance of hatred turns malice.

Francis Quarles

We trust something in a grocery store and assume it's good. We don't learn about the most precious thing in life-the food we put in our body. Educate yourself!

Paul Prudhomme

It's my belief that history is a wheel. 'Inconstancy is my very essence,' says the wheel. Rise up on my spokes if you like but don't complain when you're cast back down into the depths. Good time pass away, but then so do the bad. Mutability is our tragedy, but it's also our hope. The worst of time, like the best, are always passing away.

Boethius (Anicius Manlius Severi

I like nonsense -- it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living. Its a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope...and that enables you to laugh at all of lifes realities.

Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel)

Always think in terms of what the other person wants.

James Van Fleet

To establish yourself in the world a person must do all they can to appear already established.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

Love is union with somebody, or something, outside oneself, under the condition of retaining the separateness and integrity of one's ownself.

Fromm, Erich

The most important relationship in your life is the relationship you have with yourself. Because no matter what happens, you will always be with yourself.

Diane von Furstenberg

Science can be effective in the national welfare only as a member of a team, whether the conditions be peace or war. But without scientific progress no amount of achievement in other directions can insure our health, prosperity, and security as a nation in the modern world.
