The young mind is pliable and imitates, but in more advanced states grows rigid and must be warmed and softened before it will receive a deep impression.

But if we learn to think of it as anticipation, as learning, as growing, if we think of the time we spend waiting for the big things of life as an opportunity instead of a passing of time, what wonderful horizons open out!

Anna Neagle

People don't want other people to get high, because if you get high, you might see the falsity of the fabric of the society we live in.

Ken Kesey

I think there is a heritage which I'm proud of, which is a fight for democracy, a fight for social justice, a fight for freedom. My grandfather went to jail or exile six times in his life, fighting for his principles for democracy, or for his country. And my father twice.

George Papandreou

Bureaucracy is the death of all sound work

Albert Einstein

The first Apple was just a culmination of my whole life.

Steve Wozniak

If we have our own why of life, we shall get along with almost any how. Man does not strive for pleasure; only the Englishman does.

Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of

There is some fiction, in all fact; and some fact, in all fiction.

T. Scott McLeod

In any great organization it is far, far safer to be wrong with the majority than to be right alone.

John Kenneth Galbraith

When a blind man carries a lame man both go forward.

Swedish Proverb

Santa is our culture's only mythic figure truly believed in by a large percentage of the population. It's a fact that most of the true believers are under eight years old, and that's a pity.

Chris Van Allsburg

Today I can declare my hope and declare it from the bottom of my heart that we will eventually see the time when that number of nuclear weapons is down to zero and the world is a much better place.

Colin Powell

You're different. You're more perfect. Time is three things for most people, but for you, for us, just one. A singularity. One moment. This moment. Like you're the center of the clock, the axis on which the hands turn. Time moves about you but never moves you. It has lost its ability to affect you. What is it they say? That time is theft? But not for you. Close your eyes and you can start all over again. Conjure up that necessary emotion, fresh as roses.

Jonathan Nolan
