There is no prosperity, trade, art, city, or great material wealth of any kind, but if you trace it home, you will find it rooted in a thought of some individual man. --

To be happy in this world, first you need a cell phone and then you need an airplane. Then you're truly wireless.

Ted Turner

We may think there is willpower involved, but more likely change is due to want power. Wanting the new addiction more than the old one. Wanting the new me in preference to the person I am now.

George Sheehan

He must not merely cling to life, for then he will be a coward, and will not escape. He must not merely wait for death, for then he will be a suicide, and will not escape. He must seek his life in a spirit of furious indifference to it.

G.K. Chesterton

We are all worms, But I do believe that I am a glow worm.

Winston Churchill

At times to be silent is to lie. You will win because you have enough brute force. But you will not convince. For to convince you need to persuade. And in order to persuade you would need what you lack: Reason and Right.

Miguel de Unamuno, in a confront

Rightful liberty is unobstructed action according to our will within limits drawn around us by the equal rights of others. I do not add 'within the limits of the law' because law is often but the tyrant's will, and always so when it violates the rights of the individual.

Thomas Jefferson

Set your target and keep trying until you reach it.

Napoleon Hill

No gain is so certain as that which proceeds from the economical use of what you already have.

Proverb

I think that we may safely trust a good deal more than we do. We may waive just so much care of ourselves as we honestly bestow elsewhere.

Henry David Thoreau

Poetry is an art, the easiest to dabble in, but the hardest to reach true excellence.

Captain J. G. Stedman

The truth is, sex doesn't mean that much to me now.

Lana Turner

I don't know what the future may hold, but I know who holds the future.

Ralph Abernathy
