Today's Famous Quotes:

Ralph Waldo Emerson


All our progress is an unfolding, like a vegetable bud. You have first an instinct, then an opinion, then a knowledge as the plant has root, bud, and fruit. Trust the instinct to the end, though you can render no reason.

Benjamin Franklin


Money never made a man happy yet, nor will it. There is nothing in its nature to produce happiness. The more a man has, the more he wants. Instead of its filling a vacuum, it makes one. If it satisfies one want, it doubles and trebles that want another way. That was a true proverb of the wise man, rely upon it; "Better is little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasure, and trouble therewith."

Author Unknown


Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquest of it.

Bruce Cockburn


Everybody loves to see justice done on somebody else.

The Lord is my light and my salvation - so why should I be afraid.

James Allen
