Science could predict that the universe must have had a beginning.

Every blade has two edges; he who wounds with one wounds himself with the other.

Victor Hugo

An inflated consciousness is always egocentric and conscious of nothing but its own existence. It is incapable of learning from the past, incapable of understanding contemporary events, and incapable of drawing right conclusions about the future. It is hypnotized by itself and therefore cannot be argued with. It inevitably dooms itself to calamities that must strike it dead.

Carl Gustav Jung

For me, I am driven by two main philosophies: know more today about the world than I knew yesterday and lessen the suffering of others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you.

Neil deGrasse Tyson

We're miserable because we think that we are mere individuals, alone with our fears and flaws and resentment and mortality.

Elizabeth Gilbert

You speak of Lord Byron and me there is this great difference between us. He describes what he sees I describe what I imagine. Mine is the hardest task.

John Keats

The kind of truth that can be asserted by argument had lost all glamour, all lustre, for him, seeming no more now than another aspect of that ancient urge - much older than the desire for truth - to command attention, dominate one's fellows.

Barry Unsworth

Human Dignity has gleamed only now and then and here and there, in lonely splendor, throughout the ages, a hope of the better men, never an achievement of the majority.

James Thurber

A job worth doing is worth doing together.

Source Unknown

Human beings have used their incredible abilities to develop a staggering array of limiting beliefs, justifications and excuses for every occasion. What a waste!

Robert White

Make no judgments where you have no compassion.

Anne McCaffrey

Philosophy does not regard pedigree, she received Plato not as a noble, but she made him one.

Seneca (Seneca the Elder)

To lose one parent may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose both looks like carelessness.

Oscar Wilde
