Great Quotations

Quotations:

S. Barry Lipkin


Travel is educational it teaches you how to get rid of money in a hurry.

Ken Thompson


Just think -- IBM and DEC in the same room -- and we did it. Makes you feel warm inside.

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 than the hope of creating the future dominates the minds of those who control the teaching of the young.

W. H. Auden


When I find myself in the company of scientists, I feel like a shabby curate who has strayed by mistake into a room full of dukes.

Randolph Silliman Bourne


No matter what we have come through, or how many perils we have safely passed, or how many imperfect and jagged - in some places perhaps irreparably - our life has been, we cannot in our heart of hearts imagine how it could have been different. As we look back on it, it slips in behind us in orderly array, and, with all its mistakes, acquires a sort of eternal fitness, and even, at times, of poetic glamour.

Fran Lebowitz


All God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.
