Quotations Update

Here are the Quotations ...



Jane O'Reilly


Maybe the greatest challenge now is to find a way to keep independence while also committing ourselves to the ties that bind people, families, and ultimately societies together.

Marcus Aurelius


The object of life is not to be on the side of the majority, but to escape finding oneself in the ranks of the insane.

Miyamoto Musashi, The Book of Five Rings


Generally speaking, the Way of the warrior is the resolute acceptance of death.

C. S. Lewis


No one ever told me grief felt so much like fear.

Alexander Hamilton


Justice is the end of government. It is the end of civil society. It ever has been and ever will be pursued until it be obtained, or until liberty be lost in the pursuit. In a society under the forms of which the stronger faction can readily unite and oppress the weaker, anarchy may as truly be said to reign as in a state of nature, where the weaker individual is not secured against the violence of the stronger; and as, in the latter state, even the individuals are prompted, by the uncertainty of their condition, to submit to a government which may protect the weak as well as themselves; so, in the former state, will the more powerful factions or parties be gradually induced, by a like motive to wish for a government which will protect all parties, the weaker as well as the more powerful.

Kahlil Gibran


Our worst fault is our preoccupation with the faults of others.

Noam Chomsky


Censorship is never over for those who have experienced it. It is a brand on the imagination that affects the individual who has suffered it, forever.

There's no Walter Cronkite to give you the final word each evening.

Quintilian


Though ambition itself be a vice, yet it is often times the cause of virtues.

Jerry Coleman


Ozzie Smith just made a play that I have never seen before. And he's done it more times than anyone else.

Leonardo Da Vinci


The poet ranks far below the painter in the representation of visible things, and far below the musician in that of invisible things.

William Strunk Jr., Elements of Style


Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell.

Sam Ewig


Nothing is as frustrating as arguing with someone who knows what he's talking about.

Live each season as it passes breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influences of each.

Henry Miller


Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
