More Quotations
Albert Einstein
Since I do not foresee that atomic energy is to be a great boon for a long time, I have to say that for the present it is a menace. Perhaps it is well that it should be. It may intimidate the human race into bringing order into its international affairs, which, without the pressure of fear, it would not do.
Walter Bagehot
The whole history of civilization is strewn with creeds and institutions which were invaluable at first, and deadly afterwards.
Arthur C. Clarke, 2010
We are just tenants on this world. We have just been given a new lease, and a warning from the landlord.
Friedrich Von Schlegel
In actual life every great enterprise begins with and takes its first forward step in faith.
Johann von Neumann
You wake me up early in the morning to tell me I am right Please wait until I am wrong.
Unknown
Never frown, even when you're sad, because you never know when someone is falling in love with your smile.
Virgil
Your descendants shall gather your fruits.
Hoshang N. Akhtar
Marriage is more than four bare legs in a bed.
George Eliot
Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.
Chinese Proverb
Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.
David Hume
If we take in our hand any volume; of divinity or school metaphysics, for instance; let us ask, "Does it contain any abstract reasoning concerning quantity or number?" No. "Does it contain any experimental reasoning concerning matter of fact and existence?" No. Commit it then to the flames: for it can contain nothing but sophistry and illusion.
William Carlos Williams
If they give you lined paper, write the other way.
