More Famous Quotations

Famous Quotations:



Charles R. Swindoll


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.

Victor Hugo


He who every morning plans the transaction of the day and follows out that plan, carries a thread that will guide him through the maze of the most busy life. But where no plan is laid, where the disposal of time is surrendered merely to the chance of incidence, chaos will soon reign.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca


An action will not be right unless the will be right for from thence is the action derived. Again, the will will not be right unless the disposition of the mind be right for from thence comes the will.

Paul Tournier


Nothing makes us so lonely as our secrets.

J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire


If you want to see the true measure of a man, watch how he treats his inferiors, not his equals.

Ronald Reagan


Anyone that's ever had their kitchen done over knows that it never gets done as soon as you wish it would.

Agatha Christie


'But it is always interesting when one doesn't see,' she added. 'If you don't see what a thing means, you must be looking at it wrong way around.'

Sir William Osler, Aphorisms from his Bedside Teachings (1961) p. 105


One of the first duties of the physician is to educate the masses not to take medicine.

Anna Lappe


Every time you spend money, you're casting a vote for the kind of world you want.

Thomas Jonathan [Stonewall] Jackson, last words, 10 May 1863.


Let us cross the river, and rest under the trees.

Dan Quayle, 10/2/90 (reported in Esquire, 8/92)


Vietnam is a jungle. You had jungle warfare. Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, you have sand. [There is no need to worry about a protracted war because] from a historical basis, Middle East conflicts do not last a long time.
