Today's Quotations:



Eric Hoffer


Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life. Thus people haunted by the purposelessness of their lives try to find a new content not only by dedicating themselves to a holy cause but also by nursing a fanatical grievance. A mass movement offers them unlimited opportunities for both.

William Shakespeare


I hate ingratitude more in a man than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness, or any taint of vice whose strong corruption inhabits our frail blood.

Richard Ingrams


It's important for people not to hold a high opinion of politicians, and one of the strengths of the British is that they don't on the whole... The danger begins when people start admiring politicians.

Golda Meir


Above all, this country is our own. Nobody has to get up in the morning and worry what his neighbors think of him. Being a Jew is no problem here.

Cher


The trouble with some women is they get all excited about nothing --- and then they marry him.

Mother Theresa


Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable. Be honest and transparent anyway.

Ray Kurzweil, The Age of Spiritual Machines: When Computers Exceed Human Intelligence


Take death for example. A great deal of our effort goes into avoiding it. We make extraordinary efforts to delay it, and often consider its intrusion a tragic event. Yet we�d find it hard to live without it. Death gives meaning to our lives. It gives importance and value to time. Time would become meaningless if there were too much of it.

Benjamin Disraeli


I feel a very unusual sensation - if it is not indigestion, I think it must be gratitude.

Sir Compton MacKenzie


The only mystery about the cat is why it ever decided to become a domesticated animal
