Rightly Quotes (page 217)

You can make it all right if you will only be satisfied to remain small,' I told myself. I had to keep saying it over and over to myself. 'Be little. Don't try to be big. Work under the guns. Be a little worm in the fair apple of life.' I got all of these sayings at my tongue's end, used to go through the streets of Chicago muttering them to myself. Sherwood Anderson
So long as we believe in our heart of hearts that our capacity is limited and we grow anxious and unhappy, we are lacking in faith. One who truly trusts in God has no right to be anxious about anything. Paramahansa Yogananda
...it is so silly of people to fancy that old age means crookedness and witheredness and feebleness and sticks and spectacles and rheumatism and forgetfulness! It is so silly! Old age has nothing whatever to do with all that. The right old age means strength and beauty and mirth and courage and clear eyes and strong painless limbs. George MacDonald
Tyler Perry quote: "People always try to do the right thing..after they've tried..."
People always try to do the right thing..after they've tried everything else. Tyler Perry
The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. John Stuart Mill
Cormac McCarthy quote: "The martyr who longs for the flames can be no right candidate..."
The martyr who longs for the flames can be no right candidate for them. Cormac McCarthy
I am frankly sick and tired of the political preachers telling me as a citizen that if I want to be a moral person, I must believe in A, B, C, and D. Just who do they think they are? And from where do they presume to claim the right to dictate their moral beliefs to me? Barry Goldwater
This religion gives you goals which are outside of reality. It enriches your fantasy life with ugliness. It fills you with ideas of guilt over the most common human experiences -- usually related to sex. In this room, right now, each of you, in your own lives, has agonized over the fact that you have masturbated. Masturbation isn't sinful. If it feels good -- do it. You have my blessing, and you yourself know how it relaxes you. Madalyn Murray O'Hair
Conan O'Brien quote: "If you accept your misfortune and handle it right, your..."
If you accept your misfortune and handle it right, your perceived failure can become a catalyst to profound reinvention. Conan O'Brien
Mark Twain quote: "Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and..."
Always do what is right. It will gratify half of mankind and astound the other. Mark Twain
Then the man smiled, and his smile was a shock, for it was all on one side, going up in the right cheek and down in the left. There was nothing, rationally speaking, to scare anyone about this. Many people have this nervous trick of a crooked smile, and in many it is even attractive. But in all Syme's circumstances, with the dark dawn and the deadly errand and the loneliness on the great dripping stones, there was something unnerving in it. There was the silent river and the silent man, a man... Gilbert K. Chesterton
Do not believe that you alone can be right. The man who thinks that, The man who maintains that only he has the power To reason correctly, the gift to speak, the soul— A man like that, when you know him, turns out empty. Sophocles
Patrick Henry quote: "The eternal difference between right and wrong does not..."
The eternal difference between right and wrong does not fluctuate, it is immutable. Patrick Henry
Alexander Dumas quote: "Sometimes one has suffered enough to have the right to never..."
Sometimes one has suffered enough to have the right to never say: I am too happy. Alexander Dumas
God’s side is determined not by geography, but by those who do His will. If Germans, English, Japanese, and Americans prayed right, they would all be praying for the same intention: Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. And what is that Will? The reign of Justice and Charity in the hearts of men. Through a prayerful contemplation of war we will see not soldiers of different nations in combat, but one great family, quarreling, fighting, wounding, and all in need of the peace and... Fulton J. Sheen
