Famous Quotes Update
Hannah Arendt
Action without a name, a 'who' attached to it, is meaningless.
Unknown
Everything you do or say is public relations.
Carl Sagan
The universe seems neither benign nor hostile, merely indifferent.
Hilaire Belloc
All men have an instinct for conflict at least, all healthy men.
Epictetus
A wise man is he who does not grieve for the thing which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.
Ranjan
A person without character is just as body without soul.
Publilius Syrus
The happy man is not he who seems thus to others, but who seems thus to himself.
Carlos Castaneda
The basic difference between an ordinary person and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary person takes everything as a blessing or a curse.
Frederick Buechner, Wishful Thinking, 1973
Of the Seven Deadly Sins, anger is possibly the most fun. To lick your wounds, to smack your lips over grievances long past, to roll over your tongue the prospect of bitter confrontations still to come, to savor to the last toothsome morsel both the pain you are given and the pain you are giving back--in many ways it is a feast fit for a king. The chief drawback is that what you are wolfing down is yourself. The skeleton at the feast is you.
Henry David Thoreau, Civil Disobience
The only obligation which I have a right to assume, is to do at any time what I think right.
