Today's Quotations
Aristotle
He who cannot be a good follower cannot be a good leader.
William Cullen Bryant
Difficulty, my brethren, is the nurse of greatness-a harsh nurse, who roughly rocks her foster-children into strength and athletic proportion.
Benjamin Franklin
A democracy is two wolves and a small lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Freedom under a constitutional republic is a well armed lamb contesting the vote.
Laurence J. Peter
Every man serves a useful purpose: A miser, for example, makes a wonderful ancestor.
Henry Miller
What does it matter how one comes by the truth so long as one pounces upon it and lives by it?
Rudyard Kipling, With the Night Mail (1909)
Funny how the new things are the old things.
Bertrand Russell, from the essay "The Science to Save Us From Science"
But all who are not lunitics are agreed about certain things: That it is better to be alive than dead, better to be adequately fed than starved, better to be free than to be a slave. Many people desire these things only for themselves and their friends; they are quite content that their enemies should suffer. These people can be refuted by science: Mankind has become so much one family that we cannot insure our own prosperity except by insuring that of everyone else. If you wish to be happy yourself, you must resign yourself to seeing others also happy.
Arnold Toynbee
It is a paradoxical but profoundly true and important principle of life that the most likely way to reach a goal is to be aiming not at that goal itself but at some more ambitious goal beyond it.
