C'est Moi!Je ne sais quoi... |
July, 2005 Sir Winston Churchill"A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty."
"Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen." "If you are going through hell, keep going." Robert Louis Stevenson"Quiet minds can't be perplexed or frightened, but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm."
"The man is a success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who leaves the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had."
"To know what you prefer, instead of humbly saying Amen to what the world tells you that you ought to prefer, is to have kept your soul alive." Oscar Wilde"A man who does not think for himself does not think at all."
"It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious."
"It is better to have a permanent income than to be fascinating." Søren Kierkegaard"Life must be understood backwards; but... it must be lived forward."
"Personality is only ripe when a man has made the truth his own." "The supreme paradox of all thought is the attempt to discover something that thought cannot think." Friedrich Nietzsche"And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you." "Art is the proper task of life." "He who has a 'why' to live, can bear with almost any 'how'." Albert Einstein"Not everything that can be counted counts, and not everything that counts can be counted." "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." "There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle." |
