Science moves with the spirit of an adventure characterized both by youthful arrogance and by the belief that the truth, once found, would be simple as well as pretty.

This is the present moment. Learn how to gobble it up without fear or guilt.

Paulo Coelho

That one I love who is incapable of ill will, and returns love for hatred. Living beyond the reach of I and mind, and of pain and pleasure, full of mercy, contented, self-controlled, with all his heart and all his mind given to Me -- with such a one I am in love.

Bhagavad Gita

The easy confidence with which I know another man's religion is folly teaches me to suspect that my own is also. I would not interfere with any one's religion, either to strengthen it or to weaken it. I am not able to believe one's religion can affect his hereafter one way or the other, no matter what that religion may be. But it may easily be a great comfort to him in this life--hence it is a valuable possession to him.

Mark Twain

The length of your education is less important than its breadth, and the length of your life is less important than its depth.

Marilyn vos Savant

It requires greater courage to preserve inner freedom, to move on in one's inward journey into new realms, than to stand defiantly for outer freedom. It is often easier to play the martyr, as it is to be rash in battle.

Rollo May

I do not like sports, unless you consider treating all humankind with love and respect a sport.

Todd Barry

Constant and frequent questioning is the first key to wisdom... For through doubting we are led to inquire, and by inquiry we perceive the truth.

Peter Abelard

Perhaps he was a bit different from other people, but what really sympathetic person is not a little mad?

Isadora Duncan

I have a Lab, it's fun to hang out and hike with the dog, people come up to him, and pet him, it's fun.

George Eads

For as old age is that period of life most remote from infancy, who does not see that old age in this universal man ought not to be sought in the times nearest his birth, but in those most remote from it?

Blaise Pascal

Pleasure can be supported by an illusion; but happiness rests upon truth.

Sebastian Roch Nicolas Chamfort

We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills we shall never surrender.

Winston Churchill
