Great Famous Quotations

Famous Quotations:



Oscar Wilde


Whenever people agree with me I always feel I must be wrong.

Jacob August Riis


The more I live, the more I think that humor is the saving sense.

Eric Berne


The moment a little boy is concerned with which is a jay and which is a sparrow, he can no longer see the birds or hear them sing.

William Carlos Williams


In summer, the song sings itself.

J.B.S. Haldane, "On Being the Right Size" in the (1928) book "Possible Worlds"


To the biologist the problem of socialism appears largely as a problem of size. The extreme socialists desire to run every nation as a single business concern. I do not suppose that Henry Ford would find much difficulty in running Andorra or Luxembourg on a socialistic basis. He has already more men on his pay-roll than their population. It is conceivable that a syndicate of Fords, if we could find them, would make Belgium Ltd. or Denmark Inc. pay their way. But while nationalization of certain industries is an obvious possibility in the largest of states, I find it no easier to picture a completely socialized British Empire or United States than an elephant turning somersaults or a hippopotamus jumping a hedge.

Albert Einstein


A human being is part of a whole, called by us the 'Universe,' a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest--a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.
