- Henry B. Adams In view of the fact that God limited the intelligence of man, it seems unfair that He did not also limit his stupidity. - Konrad Adenauer It is easier to fight for one's principles than to live up to them. - Alfred Adler If at first you don't succeed, you're running about average. - M.H. Alderson Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But, if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, then you haven't really learned anything. - Muhammad Ali Doing easily what others find difficult is talent; doing what is impossible for talent is genius. - Henri-Frederic Amiel Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. - Antoine de St. Exupery Women like silent men. They think they're listening. - Marcel Archard What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies. - Aristotle Wit is educated insolence. - Aristotle Anyone can become angry--that is easy. But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way; this is not easy. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then, is not an act, but a habit. - Aristotle You cannot get ahead while you are getting even. - Dick Armey Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can. All of them make me laugh. - W.H. Auden Nobody is more dangerous than he who imagines himself pure in heart; for his purity, by definition, is unassailable. - James Baldwin Television is the first truly democratic culture - the first culture available to everybody and entirely governed by what the people want. The most terrifying thing is what people do want. - Clive Barnes Whatever you do, do it with all your might. Work at it, early and late, in season and out of season, not leaving a stone unturned, and never deferring for a single hour that which can be done just as well as now. - P.T. Barnum The most important things to do in the world are to get something to eat, something to drink and somebody to love you. - Brendan Behan That some good can be derived from every event is a better proposition than that everything happens for the best, which it assuredly does not. - James K. Beibleman When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us. - Alexander Graham Bell Anything I've ever done that ultimately was worthwhile, initially scared me to death. - Betty Bender The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born - that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That's nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born. Failing organizations are usually over-managed and under-led. - Warren G. Bennis One reason I don't drink is I want to know when I'm having a good time. - Avery Bishop People never lie so much as after a hunt, during a war or before an election. - Otto von Bismarck The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority. - Kenneth Blanchard The opposite of a correct statement is a false statement. The opposite of a profound truth may well be another profound truth. - Niels Bohr (1885-1962) History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon. - Napoleon Bonaparte Ten people who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent. - Napoleon Bonaparte A man will fight harder for his interests than for his rights. - Napoleon Bonaparte When in doubt, mumble; when in trouble, delegate; when in charge, ponder. - James H. Boren There are two ways of meeting difficulties. You alter the difficulties or you alter yourself to meet them. - Phyliss Bottome I value a friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar. - Robert Brault Make peace with the knowledge that you can't have everything you want. Why? Because it's more important for us to get everything we need. - Sarah Ban Breathnach To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first, and call whatever you hit the target. - Ashleigh Brilliant Life may have no meaning. Or even worse, it may have a meaning of which I disapprove. - Ashleigh Brilliant My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right. - Ashleigh Brilliant A new idea is delicate. It can be killed by a sneer or a yawn; it can be stabbed to death by a joke or worried to death by a frown on the right person's brow. - Charles Brower The next time you face a customer who has every right to be upset, say something like this: 'I don't blame you for feeling as you do. If I were you, I'd feel exactly the same way. What would you like for me to do?' These are magical, healing words, and you'll be surprised at how reasonable people become when they believe you are on their side. - H. Jackson Brown, Jr. If you are angry, why not try this. Write a letter. Pour out all of your feelings, describe your anger and disappointment. Don't hold anything back. Then put the letter in a drawer. After two days, take it out and read it. Do you still want to send it? I've found that anger and pie crusts soften after two days. - H. Jackson Brown, Jr. When you are angry or frustrated, what comes out? Whatever it is, it's a good indication of what you're made of. - H. Jackson Brown, Jr. Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss it you will land among the stars. - Les Brown Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. - William Jennings Bryan The young do not know enough to be prudent, and therefore they attempt the impossible, and achieve it, generation after generation. - Pearl S. Buck Aim for success, not perfection. Never give up your right to be wrong, because then you will lose the ability to learn new things and move forward with your life. Remember that fear always lurks behind perfectionism. Confronting your fears and allowing yourself the right to be human can, paradoxically, make yourself a happier and more productive person. - Dr. David M. Burns Any fool can tell the truth, but it requires a man of some sense to know how to lie well. - Samuel Butler Those who will not reason, are bigots, those who cannot, are fools, and those who dare not, are slaves. - Lord Byron The optimist proclaims we live in the best of all possible worlds; and the pessimist fears this is true. - James B. Cabell It is better to be defeated on principle than to win on lies. - Arthur Calwell Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all. - Dale Carnegie In time of war the first casualty is truth. - Boake Carter After I'm dead I'd rather have people ask why I have no monument than why I have one. - Cato the Elder (234-149 BC, a.k.a. Marcus Porcius Cato) A proverb is a short sentence based on long experience. - Miguel de Cervantes The man who strikes first admits that his ideas have given out. - Chinese Proverb Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning. - Sir Winston Churchill Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. - Arthur C. Clarke America is the only nation in history which miraculously has gone directly from barbarism to degeneration without the usual interval of civilization. - Georges Clemenceau Imagine a school with children that can read or write, but with teachers who cannot, and you have a metaphor of the Information Age in which we live. - Peter Cochrane When you have nothing to say, say nothing. - Charles Caleb Colton No person was ever honored for what he received.

Dana Dreaming permits each and every one of us to be quietly and safely insane every night of our lives. - William Dement There is no conversation more boring than the one where everybody agrees. - Michel de Montaigne What's money anyhow? A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do. - Bob Dylan The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious; It is the source of all true art and science. - Albert Einstein Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute. THAT'S relativity. - Albert Einstein Only those who risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go. - T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper. - T. S. Eliot The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him. - Ralph Waldo Emerson What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. - Ralph Waldo Emerson To different minds, the same world is a hell, and a heaven. - Ralph Waldo Emerson A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him, I may think aloud. - Ralph Waldo Emerson We have two ears and one mouth so that we can listen twice as much as we speak. - Epictetus War is delightful to those who have had no experience of it. - Desiderius Erasmus Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish. - Euripides When you read a classic you do not see in the book more than you did before. You see more in you than there was before. - Clifton Fadiman Conditions are never just right. People who delay action until all factors are favorable do nothing. - William Feather Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. - Harvey Fierstein It isn't what they say about you, it's what they whisper. - Errol Flynn Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason so few engage in it. - Henry Ford The world is moving so fast these days that the man who says it can't be done is generally interrupted by someone doing it. - Harry Emerson Fosdick Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame. - Benjamin Franklin Modern man thinks he loses something; time; when he does not do things quickly.

I took the one less traveled by and that has made all the difference. - Robert Frost I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use. - Galileo Galilei When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible but in the end, they always fall - think of it, ALWAYS. - Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi Crazy people who are productive are geniuses. Crazy people who are rich are eccentric. Crazy people who are neither productive nor rich are just plain crazy. Geniuses and crazy people are both out in the middle of a deep ocean; geniuses swim, crazy people drown. Most of us are sitting safely on the shore. Take a chance and get your feet wet. - Michael J. Gelb Wherever your life may lead you, I will always be here when you get back. - Amy Giauque In times like these, it is helpful to remember that there have always been times like these. - Paul Harvey The victor will never be asked if he told the truth. - Adolf Hitler You can discover what your enemy fears most by observing the means he uses to frighten you. - Eric Hoffer The right to swing my fist ends where the other man's nose begins. - Oliver Wendell Holmes He has achieved success who has worked well, laughed often, and loved much. - Elbert Hubbard It is only when they go wrong that machines remind you how powerful they are. - Clive James Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances. - Thomas Jefferson Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom. - Thomas Jefferson Nothing will ever be attempted if all possible objections must first be overcome. - Samuel Johnson There's no way to describe what I do. It's just me. - Andy Kaufman Pure entertainment is not an egotistical lady singing boring songs onstage for two hours and people in tuxes clapping whether they like it or not. It's the real performers on the street who can hold people's attention and keep them from walking away. - Andy Kaufman I am only one; but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; I will not refuse to do the something I can do. - Helen Keller Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind. - John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable. - John F. Kennedy We have the power to make this the best generation of mankind in the history of the world - or to make it the last. - John F. Kennedy The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. - Martin Luther King Jr. In the End, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. - Martin Luther King Jr. Neither genius, fame, nor love show the greatness of the soul. Only kindness can do that. - Jean Baptiste Henri Lacordaire Class has a sense of humor. It knows that a good laugh is the best lubricant for oiling the machinery of human relations. Class never makes excuses. It takes its lumps and learns from past mistakes. Class bespeaks an aristocracy unrelated to ancestors or money. Some extremely wealthy people have no class at all, while others who are struggling to make ends meet are loaded with it. Class is real. You can't fake it. Class never tries to build itself up by tearing others down. Class is already up and need not attempt to look better by making others look worse. Everyone is comfortable with the person who has class because he is comfortable with himself. If you have class, you've got it made. If you don't have class, no matter what else you have, it won't make up for it. - Ann Landers Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart enought to know they were impossible. - Doug Larson The world began without man, and it will complete itself without him. - Claude Levi-Strauss If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting? - Stephen Levine Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those who hustle. - Abraham Lincoln Any coward can sit in his home and criticize a pilot for flying into a mountain in a fog. But I would rather, by far, die on a mountainside than in bed. What kind of man would live where there is no daring? And is life so dear that we should blame men for dying in adventure? Is there a better way to die? - Charles Lindbergh Jr. Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending. - Henry Wadsworth Longfellow The average person thinks he isn't. - Father Larry Lorenzoni Censorship, like charity, should begin at home, but unlike charity, it should end there. - Clare Boothe Luce You can tell whether a man is clever by his answers. You can tell whether a man is wise by his questions. - Naguib Mahfouz The one who travels alone travels the fastest, but the one who travels in a group travels the farthest. - Brother Pontius Malmberg Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness, and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again. - Og Mandino The ultimate leader is one who is willing to develop people to the point that they surpass him or her in knowledge and ability. - Fred A.

L. Mencken A good listener is not only popular everywhere, but after a while he gets to know something. - Wilson Mizner (1876-1933) The greatest motivational act one person can do for another is to listen. - Roy E. Moody After all, there is but one race - humanity. - George Moore It's so easy to laugh. It's so easy to hate. It takes strength to be gentle and kind. - Stephen Morrissey A little inaccuracy sometimes saves a ton of explanation. - H. H. Munro (Saki) (1870-1916) Ten people who speak make more noise than ten thousand who are silent. - Napoleon History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon. - Napoleon Of those who say nothing, few are silent. - Thomas Neill Nobody believes the official spokesman... but everybody trusts an unidentified source. - Ron Nesen God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, courage to change the things which should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other. - Reinhold Niebuhr If you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you. - Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly. - Friedrich Nietzsche The optimist thinks that this is the best of all possible worlds, and the pessimist knows it. - J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904-1967) I am become death, shatterer of worlds. - Robert J. Oppenheimer (citing from the Bhagavadgita, after witnessing the world's first nuclear explosion) On the whole human beings want to be good, but not too good and not quite all the time. - George Orwell Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most. - Ozzy Osbourne When we walk to the edge of all the light we have and take the step into the darkness of the unknown, we must believe that one of two things will happen. There will be something solid for us to stand on or we will be taught to fly. - Frank Outlaw Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny. - Patrick Overton Watch what people are cynical about, and one can often discover what they lack. - General George S. Patton Never tell the people how to do things. Tell them what to do and they will surprise you with their integrity. - General George S. Patton Lead me, follow me, or get out of my way. - General George S. Patton The grim fact is that we prepare for war like percocious giants and peace like retarded pygmies. - Lester Pearson After you've done a thing the same way for two years, look it over carefully. After five years, look at it with suspicion. And after ten years, throw it away and start all over. - Alfred Edward Perlman Originality is the fine art of remembering what you hear but forgetting where you heard it. - Laurance Peter What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal. - Albert Pine The measure of a man is what he does with power. - Pittacus Cinema should make you forget you are sitting in a theater. - Roman Polanski They talk most who have the least to say. - Mathew Prior I wanted a perfect ending. Now I've learned, the hard way, that some poems don't rhyme, and some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious Ambiguity. - Gilda Radner Love is like an hourglass, with the heart filling up as the brain empties. - Jules Renard We cannot really love anybody with whom we never laugh. - Agnes Repplier People who know little are usually great talkers, while men who know much say little. - Jean Jacques Rousseau A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. - Antoine de Saint-Exupery We must not allow other people's limited perceptions to define us. - Virginia Satir A man can succeed at almost anything for which he has unlimited enthusiasm. - Charles Schwab The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do.

Do wrong to none. - William Shakespeare This above all: to thine own self be true. - William Shakespeare Do not do unto others as you would they should do unto you. Their tastes may not be the same. - George Bernard Shaw Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. Unreasonable people attempt to adapt the world to themselves. All progress, therefore, depends on unreasonable people. - George Bernard Shaw Some men see things as they are and say why? I dream things that never were and say "Why not?" - George Bernard Shaw A Native American elder once described his own inner struggles in this manner: "Inside of me there are two dogs. One of the dogs is mean and evil. The other dog is good. The mean dog fights the good dog all the time." When asked which dog wins, he reflected for a moment and replied, "The one I feed the most." - George Bernard Shaw When there is an original sound in the world, it makes a hundred echoes. - John Shedd The true secret of giving advice is, after you have honestly given it, to be perfectly indifferent whether it is taken or not. - Hannah Whitall Smith Justice will only be achieved when those who are not injured by crime feel as indignant as those who are. - King Solomon There can be no justice so long as rules are absolute. - Patrick Stewart Integrity is doing the right thing, even if nobody is watching. - Jim Stovall No dictator, no invader, can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand. The Centauri learned this lesson once. We will teach it to them again. Though it take a thousand years, we will be free. - J. Michael Straczynski To sit alone with my conscience will be judgement enough for me. - Charles William Stubbs People who soar are those who refuse to sit back, sigh and wish things would change. They neither complain of their lot nor passively dream of some distant ship coming in. Rather, they visualize in their minds that they are not quitters; they will not allow life's circumstances to push them down and hold them under. - Charles Swindoll The remarkable thing we have is a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past... We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play on the one string we have, and that is our attitude. - Charles Swindoll I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun. - Charles Swindoll If you judge poeple, you have no time to love them. - Mother Teresa Being in power is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't. - Margaret Thatcher Really believe in your heart of hearts that your fundamental purpose, the reason for being, is to enlarge the lives of others. Your life will be enlarged also. And all of the other things we have been taught to concentrate on will take care of themselves. - Pete Thigpen The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready. - Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862) If you can't convince them, confuse them. - Harry S Truman No matter how far you have gone on the wrong road, turn back. - Turkish proverb Well-timed silence hath more eloquence than speech. - Martin Fraquhar Tupper Let us be thankful for the fools. But for them the rest of us could not succeed. - Mark Twain Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. - Mark Twain Man is the only animal that blushes - or needs to. - Mark Twain Most of us miss out on life's big prizes. The Pulitzer. The Nobel. Oscars. Tonys. Emmys. But we're all eligible for life's small pleasures. A pat on the back. A kiss behind the ear. A four-pound bass. A full moon. An empty parking space. A cracking fire. A great meal. A glorious sunset. Hot soup. Cold beer. Don't fret about copping life's grand awards. Enjoy its tiny delights. There are plenty for all of us. - United Technologies Corporation Ad No man for any considerable period of time, can wear one face to himself; and another to the multitude, without getting bewildered as to which may be true. - Unknown From the outside looking in you can never understand it. From the inside looking out you can never explain it. - Unknown I always knew I'd look back on the tears and laugh. But I never thought I'd look back on the laughter and cry. - Unknown I don't need a certain number of friends, I just need friends I am certain of. - Unknown Lots of things make us friends, but the love we share make us family. - Unknown You should never look down on a friend except to pick him up. - Unknown A friend is someone who walks in when the rest of the world has walked out. - Unknown Knowledge is not what your can remember, but what you can't forget. - Unknown Too often we don't realize what we have until it is gone; Too often we wait too late to say "I'm sorry - I was wrong." Sometimes it seems we hurt the ones we hold dearest to our hearts; And we allow foolish things to tear our lives apart. Far too many times we let unimportant things into our minds; And then it's usually too late to see what made us blind. So be sure that you let people know how much they mean to you; Take that time to say the words before your time is through. Be sure that you appreciate everything you've got; and be thankful for the Little Things in Life that mean a lot. - Unknown A true friend is someone who is there for you when he should be somewhere else. - Unknown If that is the way it is done, then that is the way you must do it. - Unknown Extraordinary men are always tempted by the most ordinary things. - Unknown Everything ends badly, otherwise it wouldn't end. - Unknown You cling to sarcasm because you refuse to accept the truth. - Unknown What can I say? I am going away. I can't say I'll see you tomorrow for there will be many days to follow of loneliness and tears. I know someday we'll meet again, I know that this is not the end. I have so much I need to say, but today I will leave you with I will miss you and I love you. - Unknown People so seldom say I love you and then it's either too late or love goes. So when I tell you I love you, it doesn't mean I know you'll never go, only that I wish you didn't have to. - Unknown Remember that you don't choose love. Love chooses you. All you can really do is accept it for all its mystery when it comes into your life, feel the way it fills you to overflowing, then reach out and give it away. Give it back to the person who brought it alive in you. Give it to others who deem it poor in spirit. Give it to the world around you in anyway you can. - Unknown Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale. - Unknown Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened. - Unknown I didn't ask for it to be over, but then again, I never asked for it to begin. For that's the way it is with life, as some of the most beautiful days come completely by chance. But even the most beautiful days eventually have their sunsets. - Unknown It's beauty that captures your attention; personality which captures your heart. - Unknown Silence is one great art of conversation. - Unkown On staring out at a gloomy day : first you must realize that it is the day that is gloomy, not you. If you want to be gloomy too, that is all right, but it is not mandatory. - Unknown A friend is someone with whom you can really be yourself; One who appreciates the good in you, overlooks the bad in you, and brings out the best in you. With a friend, you can share a laugh, a secret, a viewpoint, a success or disappointment, and a complete assortment of problems large and small. A friend is someone who understands silences as well as words, one who lifts you up and never lets you down, who makes you feel it's a pretty nice old world after all. A friend is one who knows all about you and loves you just the same. - Unknown Talent does what it can; genius does what it must. - Unknown The most important thing in communication is hearing what isn't being said. - Unknown We are not interested in the possibilities of defeat. - Queen Victoria A sobering thought: what if, at this very moment, I am living up to my full potential? - Jane Wagner Recently, I was asked if I was going to fire an employee who made a mistake that cost the company $600,000.

Watts Do all the good you can, By all the means you can, In all the ways you can, In all the places you can, At all the times you can, To all the people you can, As long as ever you can. - John Wesley Find out what you like doing best and get someone to pay you for doing it. - Katherine Whitehorn I am not young enough to know everything. - Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars. - Oscar Wilde A cynic is a person who knows the prize of everything and the value of nothing. - Oscar Wilde Only the winners decide what were war crimes. - Gary Wills You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one. - John Wooden You can be a victor without having victims. - Harriet Woods The truth is more important than the facts. - Frank Lloyd Wright (1868-1959) If we found out that we all had five minutes to live, every phone line in the world would be tied up with people calling other people to stumble about how much they love them. So don't wait until we only have five minutes to live - do it now. - Trisha Wright It isn't the incompetent who destroys an organization. The incompetent never gets in a position to destroy it. It is those who have achieved something and want to rest upon their achievements who are forever clogging things up. - F.M. Young It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees! - Emiliano Zapata The artist is nothing without the gift, but the gift is nothing without work. - Emile Zola (1840-1902) |
