Martin Luther


At night always carry in your heart something from Holy Scriptures to bed with you, meditate upon it like a ruminant animal, and go softly to sleep; but this must not be too much, rather a little that may be well pondered and understood, that you may find a remnant of it in your mind when you rise in the morning.

Plato, Symposium


But, my dearest Agathon, it is truth which you cannot contradict; you can without any difficulty contradict Socrates.

Mickey Mantle


If I knew I was going to live this long, I'd have taken better care of myself.

Nelson Mendela


We must use time wisely and forever realize that the time is always ripe to do right.

Dwight D. Eisenhower


We merely want to live in peace with all the world, to trade with them, to commune with them, to learn from their culture as they may learn from ours, so that the products of our toil may be used for our schools and our roads and our churches and not for guns and planes and tanks and ships of war.

Valerie Polakow


Rigidly organized pre-school classrooms, which value obedience more than development, create the deficits in poor children, imposing a self-image of marginality and failure.

John Brown


Be mild with the mild, shrewd with the crafty, confiding to the honest, rough to the ruffian, and a thunderbolt to the liar. But in all this, never be unmindful of your own dignity.

Jacqueline Cochran


I have found adventure in flying, in world travel, in business, and even close at hand... Adventure is a state of mind - and spirit.

Saki


The young have aspirations that never come to pass, the old have reminiscences of what never happened.

John Keats


The problems of the world cannot possible be solved by skeptics or cynics whose horizons are limited by the obvious realities. We need men who can dream of things that never were.

Dugald Stewart


The faculty of imagination is the great spring of human activity, and the principle source of human improvement. As it delights in presenting to the mind scenes and characters more perfect than those which we are acquainted with, it prevents us from ever being completely satisfied without present condition, or with our past attainments, and engages us continually in the pursuit of some untried enjoyment, or of some ideal excellence. Destroy this faculty, and the condition of man will become as stationary as that of the brutes.

J.W. Schopf


For four-fifths of our history, our planet was populated by pond scum.
