The test of our progress is not whether we add more to the abundance of those who have much it is whether we provide enough for those who have little.

Drug misuse is not a disease, it is a decision, like the decision to step out in front of a moving car. You would call that not a disease but an error of judgment.

Philip K. Dick

Philosopher: A lover of wisdom, which is to say, Truth

Voltaire

We have newsreaders behaving like actors, lowering their voices if it's a sad story, as if we didn't know it's a sad story. There isn't a single cool newsreader.

Tom Baker

An angry father is most cruel toward himself.

Publilius Syrus

If a man watches three football games in a row, he should be declared legally dead.

Erma Bombeck

The man who says he has exhausted life generally means that life has exhausted him.

Oscar Wilde

I have seen sights and travelled in countries you cannot imagine. I have been afraid and I have been in danger, and I have never for one moment thought that I would throw myself at at a man for his help.

Philippa Gregory

The last best hope of earth, two trillion dollars in debt, is spinning out of control, and all we can do is stare at a flickering cathode-ray tube as Ollie answers questions on TV while the press, resolutely irrelevant as ever, asks politicians if they have committed adultery. From V-J Day 1945 to this has been, my fellow countrymen, a perfect nightmare.

Gore Vidal

The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything except our thinking. Thus, we are drifting toward catastrophe beyond conception. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.

Albert Einstein

The way to wealth is as plain as the way to market. It depends chiefly on two words, industry and frugality: that is, waste neither time nor money, but make the best use of both. Without industry and frugality nothing will do, and with them everything.

Benjamin Franklin

When did it become a problem to be a small businessman and become successful? The small businessman - like my father, or like me?

Glenn Beck

There is a woman at the begining of all great things.

Alphonse de Lamartine
