Daily Quotations
Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is 'God is crying.' And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is 'Probably because of something you did.'
Johann von Goethe
Love grants in a moment what toil can hardly achieve in an age.
Florida Scott-Maxwell, O Magazine, October 2003
I grow more intense as I age.
Lucan
Deep-seated are the wounds dealt in civil brawls.
Mark Twain, Notebooks (1935)
Good breeding consists of concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person.
Carl Jung
If one does not understand a person, one tends to regard him as a fool.
Roland, "The Last Gunslinger"
Only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly, caught in the web of duty.
Aristotle, Politics
Even when laws have been written down, they ought not always to remain unaltered.
Leo Buscaglia
