Latest greatest Quotes
Peggy Noonan
My generation, faced as it grew with a choice between religious belief and existential despair, chose marijuana. Now we are in our Cabernet stage.
G. W. F. Hegel
Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
How good bad music and bad reasons sound when one marches against an enemy!
Immanuel Kant, FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF THE METAPHYSICS OF ETHICS
...as to moral feeling, this supposed special sense, the appeal to it is indeed superficial when those who cannot think believe that feeling will help them out, even in what concerns general laws: and besides, feelings which naturally differ infinitely in degree cannot furnish a uniform standard of good and evil, nor has any one a right to form judgments for others by his own feelings...
Vida D. Scudder
It is through creating, not possessing, that life is revealed.
Friedrich Nietzsche
It is hard enough to remember my opinions, without also remembering my reasons for them!
Joseph Wood Krutch

Maria de Jesus
A child is the root of the heart.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez, from "Love in the Time of Cholera"
...they no longer felt like newlyweds, and even less like belated lovers. It was as if they had lept over the arduous calvary of conjugal life and gone straight to the heart of love. They were together in silence like an old married couple wary of life, beyond the pitfalls of passion, beyond the brutal mockery of hope and the phantoms of disillusion: beyond love. For they had lived together long enough to know that love was always love, anytime and anyplace, but it was more solid the closer it came to death.
George Bernard Shaw
A learned man is an idler who kills time with study. Beware of his false knowledge it is more dangerous than ignorance.
Stanislaw J. Lec, "Unkempt Thoughts"
When you jump for joy, beware that no one moves the ground from beneath your feet.
Don Hays
Emotions are your worst enemy in the stock market.
