Today's Famous Quotes

Straight to the Famous Quotes ...



Bertrand Russell, from the essay "The Science to Save Us From Science"


But all who are not lunitics are agreed about certain things: That it is better to be alive than dead, better to be adequately fed than starved, better to be free than to be a slave. Many people desire these things only for themselves and their friends; they are quite content that their enemies should suffer. These people can be refuted by science: Mankind has become so much one family that we cannot insure our own prosperity except by insuring that of everyone else. If you wish to be happy yourself, you must resign yourself to seeing others also happy.

Carol Burnett


I have always grown from my problems and challenges, from the things that don't work out, that's when I've really learned.

Lao Tzu


While day by day the overzealous student stores up facts for future use, He who has learned to trust nature finds need for ever fewer external directions. He will discard formula after formula, until he reaches the conclusion Let nature take its course. By letting each thing act in accordance with its own nature, everything that needs to be done gets done.

Sir Walter Besant


You cannot believe in honor until you have achieved it. Better keep yourself clean and bright you are the window through which you must see the world.

Kahlil Gibran


Death most resembles a prophet who is without honor in his own land or a poet who is a stranger among his people.

Unknown


Usability is like oxygen -- you never notice it until it is missing...
