Charles Haddon Spurgeon


It will be an ill day when our brethren take to bragging and boasting and call it 'testimony to the victorious Christian life.'

Quentin Crisp

Laurence Hope


For this is Wisdom to love, to live To take what fate, or the Gods may give. To ask no question, to make no prayer, To kiss the lips and caress the hair, Speed passion's ebb as you greet its flow To have, - to hold - and - in time, - let go

Josiah Gilbert Holland


Let this be understood, then, at starting; that the patient conquest of difficulties which rise in the regular and legitimate channels of business and enterprise is not only essential in securing the success which you seek but it is essential to that preparation of your mind, requisite for the enjoyment of your successes, and for retaining them when gained. So, day by day, and week by week; so month after month, and year after year, work on, and in that progress gain in strength and symmetry, and nerve and knowledge, that when success, patiently and bravely worked for, shall come, it may find you prepared to receive it and keep it.

Helen Rowland

Russell Baker

Michelangelo Buonarroti


I hope that I may always desire more than I can accomplish.

Marcus Valerius Martialis, Epigrams


A man who lives everywhere lives nowhere.

Ralph Waldo Emerson


The wise man always throws himself on the side of his assailants. It is more his interest than it is theirs to find his weak point.

Andrew Brown


Internet is so big, so powerful and pointless that for some people it is a complete substitute for life.

James Grand


To forgive is human, to forget divine. . ..
