Famous Quotations for Today
Norman Vincent Peale
We struggle with the complexities and avoid the simplicities.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
The best lightning rod for your protection is your own spine.
Clive Staples Lewis
Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.
Anon.
One thing you can't recycle is wasted time.
Robert Charles Benchley
A great many people have come up to me and asked me how I manage to get so much work done and still keep looking so dissipated. My answer is 'Don't you wish you knew'
Jack Handey Deep Thoughts
I scrambled to the top of the precipice where Nick was waiting. 'That was fun,' I said. 'You bet it was,' said Nick. 'Let's climb higher.' 'No,' I said. 'I think we should be heading back now.' 'We have time,' Nick insisted. I said we didn't, and Nick said we did. We argued back and forth like that for about 20 minutes, then finally decided to head back. I didn't say it was an interesting story.
Spinoza, Dutch Philosopher
I saw that all things I feared, and which feared me, had nothing good or bad in them save insofar as the mind was affected by them.
Albert Camus
Every revolutionary ends up either by becoming an oppressor or a heretic.
Koran
If you disclose your alms, even then it is well done, but if you keep them secret, and give them to the poor, then that is better still for you and this wipes off from you some of your evil deeds.
