They Young People have exalted notions, because they have not been humbled by life or learned its necessary limitations; moreover, their hopeful disposition makes them think themselves equal to great things -- and that means having exalted notions. They would always rather do noble deeds than useful ones: Their lives are regulated more by moral feeling than by reasoning -- all their mistakes are in the direction of doing things excessively and vehemently. They overdo everything -- they love too much, hate too much, and the same with everything else.

You just keep pushing. You just keep pushing. I made every mistake that could be made. But I just kept pushing.

Rene Mcpherson

One has to abandon altogether the search for security, and reach out to the risk of living with both arms. One has to court doubt and darkness as the cost of knowing. One needs a will stubborn in conflict, but apt always to total acceptance of every consequence of living and dying.

Morris L. West

I can't design anything unless I'm excited by it, meaning I have an urge to wear it.

Rachel Roy

Any work that aspires, however humbly, to the condition of art should carry its justification in every line.

Joseph Conrad

Architecture is about public space held by buildings.

Richard Rogers

If you take any world problem, any issue on the planet, the solution to that problem certainly includes education. In education, the roadblock is the laptop.

Nicholas Negroponte

We will get everything out of her that you can squeeze out of a lemon and a bit more. I will squeeze her until you can hear the pips squeak.

Sir Eric Geddes

There's a kinship among men who have sat by a dying fire and measured the worth of their life by it.

William Golding

The multitude is always wrong.

Proverb

Search for the seed of good in every adversity. Master that principle and you will own a precious shield that will guard you well through all the darkest valleys you must traverse. Stars may be seen from the bottom of a deep well, when they cannot be discerned from the mountaintop. So will you learn things in adversity that you would never have discovered without trouble. There is always a seed of good. Find it and prosper.

Og Mandino

But the thought of being a lunatic did not greatly trouble him; the horror was that he might also be wrong.

George Orwell

The wise man does not expose himself needlessly to danger, since there are few things for which he cares sufficiently but he is willing, in great crises, to give even his life - knowing that under certain conditions it is not worthwhile to live.

Aristotle
