The true source of cheerfulness is benevolence.

Never was a miser a brave soul.

George Herbert

If a man we don't know phones us up one day and talks a little, makes no suggestions, says nothing special, but nevertheless pays us the kind of attention we rarely receive, we're quite capable of going to bed with him that night, feeling relatively in love. That's what we women are like, and there's nothing wrong with that - it's the nature of the female to open herself to love easily.

Paulo Coelho

Never read a book that is not a year old.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

A virtuous heretic shall be saved before a wicked Christian

Benjamin Franklin

Today the network of relationships linking the human race to itself and to the rest of the biosphere is so complex that all aspects affect all others to an extraordinary degree. Someone should be studying the whole system, however crudely that has to be done, because no gluing together of partial studies of a complex nonlinear system can give a good idea of the behavior of the whole.

Murray Gell-Mann

Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.

Napoleon Hill

Who with a little cannot be content, endures an everlasting punishment.

Robert Herrick

An unsanctified temper is a fruitful source of error, and a mighty impediment to truth.

Elias Lyman Magoon

I have a map of the United States...actual size. It says, Scale: 1 mile = 1 mile. I spent last summer folding it. I also have a full size map of the world. I hardly ever unroll it.

Steven Wright

If God drives a car, He'd drive a 1973 Ford LTD Brougham sedan with a claret-colored vinyl roof, with oxblood leather upholstery and an opera window.

Doug Coupland

Revolt and revolution both wind up at the same crossroads: the police, or folly

Albert Camus
