I believe we shall come to care about people less and less. The more people one knows the easier it becomes to replace them. It's one of the curses of London.

Ambrose Bierce

The human foot is a masterpiece of engineering and a work of art.

Leonardo da Vinci

Mahatma Gandhi

All is fair in love and golf.

Proverb

It is easy -- terribly easy -- to shake a man's faith in himself. To take advantage of that to break a man's spirit is devil's work.

George Bernard Shaw

Kellan Lutz

Herodotus says, Very few things happen at the right time, and the rest do not happen at all. The conscientious historian will correct these defects.

Mark Twain

Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false pride and conceit that can halt your progress. The next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pail of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your importance.

Og Mandino

Luck is a word the bitter teach to the ignorant.

Steve Maraboli

If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs.

Sir Peter Medawar
