Great Quotations

Quotations:

Barbara Howar


There is nothing better for the spirit or the body than a love affair. It elevates the thoughts and flattens the stomachs.

Henri Frdric Amiel


Action is only coarsened thought-thought becomes concrete, obscure, and unconscious.

Albert Einstein


The human mind is not capable of grasping the Universe. We are like a little child entering a huge library. The walls are covered to the ceilings with books in many different tongues. The child knows that someone must have written these books. It does not know who or how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. But the child notes a definite plan in the arrangement of the books - a mysterious order which it does not comprehend, but only dimly suspects.

Seneca


One should count each day a separate life.

Robert Frost
