Daily Quotations
Trey and Matt Stone Parker
I just realized that there's going to be a lot of painful times in life, so I better learn to deal with it the right way.
Caleb Carr
So if it seems that some of what I'll have to say in the pages to come doesn't reflect the mellowing of age, that's only because I've never found that life and memories respond to time the way that tobacco does.
Thales, (The Seven Sages) from Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers
Know thyself.
Richard Jeni
It is a sad fact that 50 percent of marriages in this country end in divorce. But hey, the other half end in death. You could be one of the lucky ones!
Anatole France, Revolt of the Angels
To die for an idea is to place a pretty high price upon conjectures.
Brian Sutton-Smith
The parent who gets down on the floor to play with a child on Christmas Day is usually doing a most remarkable thing -- something seldom repeated during the rest of the year. These are, after all, busy parents committed to their work or their success in the larger society, and they do not have much left-over time in which to play with their children.
Benjamin Disraeli
Talk to a man about himself and he will listen for hours.
Charles Rosin
There's something intrinsically therapeutic about choosing to spend your time in a wide, open park- like setting that non-golfers can never truly understand.
Gore Vidal
It is not enough to succeed. Others must fail.
Robert Louis Stephenson
We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.
Nathaniel Hawthorne
In youth men are apt to write more wisely than they really know or feel and the remainder of life may be not idly spent in realizing and convincing themselves of the wisdom which they uttered long ago.
Sophocles
How dreadful knowledge of the truth can be When there's no help in truth

Today's Quotations
Muhammad Ali
Rivers, ponds, lakes and streams. They have different names but all contain water. Religions have different names, but all contain truth.
Warren Buffett
If you have a harem of 40 women, you never get to know any of them very well.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Unconditional war can no longer lead to unconditional victory. It can no longer serve to settle disputes. It can no longer be of concern to great powers alone. For a nuclear disaster, spread by winds and waters and fear, could well engulf the great and the small, the rich and the poor, the committed and the uncommitted alike. Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind.
Miguel de Cervantes
They can expect nothing but their labour for their pains.
Andrew Lang
You can cover a great deal of country in books.
B. F. Skinner
Society attacks early when the individual is helpless.
Imam Ali-Ibn-Abi-Talib, Nahjul Balgha (Peak of Eloquence), saying no. 2
2. He who is greedy is disgraced; he who discloses his hardship will always be humiliated; he who has no control over his tongue will often have to face discomfort.
Marcus Aelius Aurelius
The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.
German proverb
The eyes believe themselves the ears believe other people.
Thomas Jefferson
I live for books.
