Today I trust my instinct, I trust myself. Finally.

Time spent with cats is never wasted.

Sigmund Freud

What usually happens in the educational process is that the faculties are dulled, overloaded, stuffed and paralyzed so that by the time most people are mature they have lost their innate capabilities.

Richard Buckminster Fuller

Without friends the world is but a wilderness. There is no man that imparteth his joys to his friends, but he joyeth the more; and no man that imparteth his grieves to his friend, but he grieveth the less.

Francis Bacon

Man is born a predestined idealist, for he is born to act. To act is to affirm the worth of an end, and to persist in affirming the worth of an end is to make an ideal.

Oliver Wendell Holmes

Just as the performance of the vilest and most wicked deeds requires spirit and talent, so even the greatest demand a certain insensitivity which under other circumstances we would call stupidity.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb

The better part of valour is discretion.

William Shakespeare

There can be no acting or doing of any kind till it be recognized that there is a thing to be done; the thing once recognized, doing in a thousand shapes becomes possible

Thomas Carlyle

As to the rout that is made about people who are ruined by extravagance, it is no matter to the nation that some individuals suffer. When so much general productive exertion is the consequence of luxury, the nation does not care though there are debtors; nay, they would not care though their creditors were there too.

Samuel Johnson

This I know - that I know nothing.

Plato

Yesterday is a canceled check; tomorrow is a promissory note; today is the only cash you have; so spend it wisely.

Kay Lyons

Education is what you get from reading the fine print. Experience is what you get from not reading it.
