Ralph Waldo Emerson


Tell them dear, that if eyes were made for seeing,Then beauty is its own excuse for beingWhy thou wert there, O rival of the roseI never sought to ask, I never knewBut, in my simple ignorance supposeThe selfsame power that brought me there brought you.

Heinrich Heine


Ordinarily he was insane, but he had lucid moments when he was merely stupid.

Shana Alexander


A plane is a bad place for an all-out sleep, but a good place to begin rest and recovery from the trip to the faraway places you've been, a decompression chamber between Here and There. Though a plane is not the ideal place really to think, to reassess or reevaluate things, it is a great place to have the illusion of doing so, and often the illusion will suffice.

Bertrand Russell


It is because modern education is so seldom inspired by a great hope that it so seldom achieves great results. The wish to preserve the past rather that the hope of creating the future dominates the minds of those who control the teaching of the young.

Daily Quotes

Today's Quotes:

Michael W. Moore


Paranoia is a finer scale of reality.

Christopher Paolini, Author of Eragon and Eldest. Quote from Eragon.


Many people have died for their beliefs� The real courage is living and suffering for what you believe.

Henry Louis Mencken


Life without sex might be safer but it would be unbearably dull. It is the sex instinct which makes women seem beautiful, which they are once in a blue moon, and men seem wise and brave, which they never are at all. Throttle it, denaturalize it, take it away, and human existence would be reduced to the prosiac, laborious, boresome, imbecile level of life in an anthill.

Laertius Diogenes


'Bury me on my face,' said Diogenes and when he was asked why, he replied, 'Because in a little while everything will be turned upside down.'

Katherine Mansfield


I am treating you as my friend asking you share my present minuses in the hope I can ask you to share my future pluses.

Sara Teasdale


No one worth possessing
Can be quite possessed.

Alcoholics Anonymous Prayer


God, I offer myself to Thee, to build with me and to do with me as Thou wilt. Relieve me of the bondage of self, that I may better do Thy will. Take away my difficulties, that victory over them may bear witness to those I would help of Thy power, Thy love and Thy way of life. May I do Thy will always. Amen.

Henry Drummond


To get to heaven we must take it with us.

Gustave Flaubert, "Madame Bovary", ch. 12


...exaggerated turns of speech conceal mediocre affections: as if the fulness of the soul might not sometimes overflow in the emptiest of metaphors, since no one, ever, can give the exact measurements of his needs, nor of his conceptions, nor of his sufferings, and the human word is like a cracked cauldron upon which we beat out melodies fit for making bears dance when we are trying to move the stars to pity.

Quotes:

Samuel McChord Crothers


A prose writer gets tired of writing prose, and wants to be a poet. So he begins every line with a capital letter, and keeps on writing prose.

James Russell Lowell


Mishaps are like knives, that either serve us or cut us, as we grasp them by the blade or the handle.

John 174 Bible


I have glorified thee on the earth I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

Joe Keenan


There are, however, people in this world who seldom pick up a newspaper, people who, when watching television, sneer in displeasure and change channels at the first glimpse of an anchorperson. While such willfully uninformed citizens are rare, emerging from seclusion only to serve on juries in trials of great national significance, they do exist.

Elvis Presley


Man, I was tame compared to what they do now, are you kidding ? All that I ever did was just jiggle.

Aeschylus


It is not the oath that makes us believe the man, but the man the oath.

Benjamin Franklin


Time is money.

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!

J. R. R. Tolkien, Letter to Michael Tolkien, March 1941


Nearly all marriages, even happy ones, are mistakes: in the sense that almost certainly (in a more perfect world, or even with a little more care in this very imperfect one) both partners might be found more suitable mates. But the real soul-mate is the one you are actually married to.
