Famous Quotations for Today
I Ching
Of all that is good, sublimity is supreme. Succeeding is the coming together of all that is beautiful. Furtherance is the agreement of all that is just. Perseverance is the foundation of all actions.
Henry David Thoreau, "Walden"
Why should we be in such desperate haste to succeed, and in such desperate enterprises? If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.
Ayn Rand, The Virtue of Selfishness, 1964
The Argument from Intimidation is a confession of intellectual impotence.
Mother Theresa
We are all pencils in the hand of God.
John Updike
There are times when fear is good It must keep its watchful place at the heart's controls. There is advantage in the wisdom won from pain.
