I stopped and gazed on the little dull man who was being paid to be a teacher of teachers. I turned and walked to the door, slammed it closed with a bang, and broken glass crashed to the floor. There was uproar behind me in the class, which did not interest me at all.

Be assured those will be thy worst enemies, not to whom thou hast done evil, but who have done evil to thee. And those will be thy best friends, not to whom thou hast done good, but who have done good to thee.

Tacitus

There is no life for girls in team sports past Little League. I got into tennis when I realized this, and because I thought golf would be too slow for me, and I was too scared to swim.

Billie Jean King

Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.

Lord Chesterfield

Civilization had too many rules for me, so I did my best to rewrite them.

Bill Cosby

I only have two things in my life, my family and work. If there's any time left over, then I play sports.

Mark Zandi

Being in love is the only transcendent experience.

Armistead Maupin

The face is the index of the mind.

Proverb

Little minds are interested in the extraordinary great minds in the commonplace.

Elbert Hubbard

While one should always study the method of a great artist, one should never imitate his manner. The manner of an artist is essentially individual, the method of an artist is absolutely universal. The first is personality, which no one should copy; the second is perfection, which all should aim at.

Oscar Wilde

When you confer a benefit on those worthy of it, you confer a favor on all.

Publilius Syrus

No statement about God is simply, literally true. God is far more than can be measured, described, defined in ordinary language, or pinned down to any particular happening.

David Jenkins

It is worth while too to warn the teacher that undue severity in correcting faults is liable at times to discourage a boy's mind from effort.

Quintilian
