Quotations:

G. K. Chesterton


The thing I hate about an argument is that it always interrupts a discussion.

Margaret Chase Smith


When people keep telling you that you can't do a thing, you kind of like to try it.

Sallust, The War with Catiline


The renown which riches or beauty confer is fleeting and frail; mental excellence is a splendid and lasting possession.

George Wither


I wonder how so insupportable a thing as a bookseller was ever permitted to grow up in the Commonwealth. Many of our modern booksellers are but needless excrements, or rather vermin.

Henry David Thoreau


Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.

Henri Cartier-Bresson


In whatever one does, there must be a relationship between the eye and the heart. With the eye that is closed, one looks within, with the eye that is open, one looks without.

Henry Clay


All legislation, all government, all society is founded upon the principle of mutual concession, politeness, comity, courtesy; upon these everything is based...Let him who elevates himself above humanity, above its weaknesses, its infirmities, its wants, its necessities, say, if he pleases, I will never compromise; but let no one who is not above the frailties of our common nature disdain compromises.

Lao-Tzu


He who knows that enough is enough will always have enough.

Edward Bulwer-Lytton, Richelieu


Beneath the rule of men entirely great,
The pen is mightier than the sword.

Confucius


To be able to practice five things everywhere under heaven constitutes perfect virtue...They are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness.

Edgar Allan Poe


I have great faith in fools; self-confidence, my friends call it.
