Science tells us what we can know, but what we can know is little, and if we forget how much we cannot know we become insensitive to many things of very great importance. Bertrand Russell
Joseph Stalin quote: "It doesnt matter how many people vote, only who counts them."
It doesnt matter how many people vote, only who counts them. Joseph Stalin
Plutarch taught me high thoughts; he elevated me above the wretched sphere of my own reflections, to admire and love the heroes of past ages. Many things I read surpassed my understanding and experience. I had a very confused knowledge of kingdoms, wide extents of country, mighty rivers, and boundless seas. This book developed new and mightier scenes of action. I read of men concerned in public affairs, governing or massacring their species. I felt the greatest ardour for virtue rise within... Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
Fernando Pessoa quote: "Be what I think? But I think of being so many things!"
Be what I think? But I think of being so many things! Fernando Pessoa
Anyone can achieve their fullest potential, who we are might be predetermined, but the path we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed but, it can be challenged. Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one. Martin Heidegger
How many times... have you encountered the saying, 'When the student is ready, the Master speaks?' Do you know why that is true? The door opens inward. The Master is everywhere, but the student has to open his mind to hear the Masters Voice. Robert Anton Wilson
But I got through the review, for all their Latin and French; I did, and if you doubt me, you just look at the end of the great ledger, turn it upside down, and you'll find I've copied out all the fine words they said of you: "careful observer," "strong nervous English," "rising philosopher."Oh! I can nearly say it all off by heart, for many a time when I am frabbed by bad debts, or Osborne's bills, or moidered with accounts, I turn the ledger wrong way up, and smoke a pipe over it, while I... Elizabeth Gaskell
Gabriel Garcia Marquez quote: "That's maybe the reason he does so many things so that he will..."
That's maybe the reason he does so many things so that he will not have to think . Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Theodore Sturgeon quote: "Among the many things it meant was that even to loneliness..."
Among the many things it meant was that even to loneliness there is an end, for those who are lonely enough, long enough. Theodore Sturgeon
If there's anything I'm proud of in my work--it's not that I draw better; there's so many better graphic artists than me--or that I write better, no. It's--and I'm not saying I know the truth, because what the hell is that? But what I got from Ruth and Dave, a kind of fierce honesty, to not let the kid down, to not let the kid get punished, to not suffer the child to be dealt with in a boring, simpering, crushing-of-the-spirit kind of way. Maurice Sendak
I thought about things, the pros and cons. But in the end I would be so confused, because I never believed there was ever any one right answer, yet there were many wrong ones. Amy Tan
In truth, the degree of anyone's succes depends on how often they can say the word 'yes' and hear the word 'no.' Those many times you are thwarted yet persevere. Chuck Palahniuk
Before we can successfully undertake a personal search for Jesus, we must first prepare time for him in our lives and room for him in our hearts. In these buys days there are many who have time for golf, time for shopping, time for work, time for play--but no time for Christ. Lovely homes dot the land and provide rooms for eating, rooms for sleeping, playrooms, sewing rooms, television rooms--but no room for Christ. Thomas S. Monson
William Butler Yeats quote: "....tradition gives the one thing many shapes."
....tradition gives the one thing many shapes. William Butler Yeats
Seeking means: to have a goal; but finding means: to be free, to be receptive, to have no goal. You, O worthy one, are perhaps indeed a seeker, for in striving towards your goal, you do not see many things that are under your nose. Herman Hesse
