Great Famous Quotes
Elizabeth II
It is easy enough to define what the Commonwealth is not. Indeed this is quite a popular pastime.
R. J. Baughan
We find greatest joy, not in getting, but in expressing what we are...Men do not really live for honors or for pay their gladness is not the taking and holding, but in doing, the striving, the building, the living. It is a higher joy to teach than to be taught. It is good to get justice, but better to do it fun to have things but more to make them. The happy man is he who lives the life of love, not for the honors it may bring, but for the life itself.
Sarah Ban Breathnach
You've got to make a conscious choice every day to shed the old - whatever 'the old' means for you.
Anonymous

Its embarrassing, you try to overthrow the government and you wind up on a Best Sellers List.

Lyndon B. Johnson
I knew from the start if I left a woman I really loved -- the Great Society -- in order to fight that bitch of a war in Vietnam then I would lose everything at home. My hopes my dreams.
Robert A. Heinlein
Luck is a tag given by the mediocre to account for the accomplishments of genius.
