Andrew Schneider


What are man and woman if not members of two very different and warring tribes Yet decade after decade, century after century, they attempt in marriage to reconcile and forge a union. Why I don't know. Biological imperative Divine law Or just a desire to connect to that mysterious other In any case, it's always struck me as a hopeful thing.

Yiddish Proverb

Nora Joyce, to her husband James


Why dont you write books people can read

Dolly Parton


The way I see it if you want the rainbow you gotta put up with the rain.

Mark Twain


There are people who strictly deprive themselves of each and every eatable, drinkable, and smokable which has in any way acquired a shady reputation. They pay this price for health. And health is all they get for it. How strange it is. It is like paying out your whole fortune for a cow that has gone dry.

Kimberly Johnson

Muriel Spark


Parents learn a lot from their children about coping with life.

Author Unknown

La Rochefoucald


Absence diminishes small loves and increases great ones, as the wind blows out the candle and fans the bonfire.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge


Talent, lying in the understanding, is often inherited genius, being the action of reason or imagination, rarely or never.

Henry Fielding


He that can heroically endure adversity will bear prosperity with equal greatness of the soul; for the mind that cannot be dejected by the former is not likely to be transported without the latter.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge


Friendship is like a sheltering tree.

Doctor Who


Anybody remotely interesting is mad, in some way or another.

Joseph Conrad


I take it that what all men are really after is some form or perhaps only some formula of peace.

Jack Handey Deep Thoughts


When I heard that trees grow a new 'ring' for each year they live, I thought, we humans are kind of like that we grow a new layer of skin each year, and after many years we are thick and unwieldy from all of our skin layers.

Heraclitus


To God all things are beautiful, good, and right human beings, on the other hand, deem some things right and others wrong. It would not be better if things happened to people just as they wish.

Famous Quotes for Today

Here are the Famous Quotes ...

Richard Feynman, Letter to Armando Garcia J, December 11, 1985


There is no harm in doubt and scepticism, for it is through these that new discoveries are made.

Erich Fromm


That man can destroy life is just as miraculous a feat as that he can create it, for life is the miracle, the inexplicable. In the act of destruction, man sets himself above life he transcends himself as a creature. Thus, the ultimate choice for a man, inasmuch as he is driven to transcend himself, is to create or to destroy, to love or to hate.

Old Russian saying


The tallest blade of grass is the first to be cut by the scythe.

Hellen Keller


The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen not touched... but felt in the heart.

Hellen Keller


Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.

Beth Knight


Figures won't lie, but liars can figure.

Logan Pearsall Smith


People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading.
