More Famous Quotations
Benjamin Franklin
Sloth makes all things difficult, but industry, all things easy. He that rises late must trot all day, and shall scarce overtake his business at night, while laziness travels so slowly that poverty soon overtakes him.
Proverbs 1728 Bible
Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.
Blaise Pascal
Man is equally incapable of seeing the nothingness from which he emerges and the infinity in which he is engulfed.
Sir Winston Churchill
To be conservative at 20 is heartless and to be a liberal at 60 is plain idiocy.
Francis Bacon
A prudent question is one-half of wisdom.
Albert Einstein, The World As I See It (autobio, 1934)
The pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, an almost fanatical love of justice, and the desire for personal independence - these are the features of Jewish tradition that make me thank my stars that I belong to it.
Ernest Hemingway
Grace under Pressure.
Anne Frank
I have often been downcast, but never in despair I regard our hiding as a dangerous adventure, romantic and interesting at the same time. In my diary I treat all the privations as amusing. I have made up my mind now to lead a different life from other girls and, later on, different from ordinary housewives. My start has been so very full of interest, and that is the sole reason why I have to laugh at the humorous side of the most dangerous moments.
Tom Landry
Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.
G.H. Hardy
...a science is said to be useful if its development tends to accentuate the existing inequalities in the destribution of wealth, or more directly promotes the destruction of human life.
William Ralph Inge
The aim of education is the knowledge not of fact, but of values.
