Today Quotes (page 91)

People often ask, "What is the single most important environmental population problem facing the world today?" A flip answer would be, "The single most important problem is our misguided focus on identifying the single most important problem! Jared Diamond
As Harry and Ron rounded the clump of trees behind which Harry had first heard the dragons roar, a witch leapt out from behind them. It was Rita Skeeter. She was wearing acid-green robes today; the Quick-Quotes Quill in her hand blended perfectly against them."Congratulations, Harry!' she said beaming at him. "I wonder if you could give me a quick word? How you felt facing that dragon? How do you feel now about the fairness of the scoring?"Yeah, you can have a word," said Harry savagely.... J. K. Rowling
The forests were crippled, the wheat fields vanished; in place of the grass there reappeared stone and drifting sand. Men perished and moved on, the cities sank back into the sand, the dust settled over them. Thousands of years later Nordic dreamers dug up the petrified culture from the rubble and ashes. Today, the entire picture of the former paradise stands before our eyes as a spent dream which had once produced life, beauty and strength as long as a superior race ruled. It will live again... Alfred Rosenberg
It is said there are flowers that bloom only once in a hundred years. Why should there not be some that bloom once in a thousand, in ten thousand years? Perhaps we never know about them simply because this "once in a thousand years" has come today. Yevgeny Zamyatin
History, if it has taught us anything at all, has taught us that the strange ideas we deride today will one day be our celebrated truths. Dan Brown
No one can travel so far that he does not make some progess each day. So let us never give up. Then we shall move forward daily in the Lord's way. And let us never despair because of our limited success. Even though it is so much less than we would like, our labour is not wasted when today is better than yesterday! John Calvin
I do not intend to defend capitalism or capitalists. They, like everything human, have their defects. I only say their possibilities of usefulness are not ended. Capitalism has borne the monstrous burden of the war and today still has the strength to shoulder the burdens of peace. ... It is not simply and solely an accumulation of wealth, it is an elaboration, a selection, a co-ordination of values which is the work of centuries. ... Many think, and I myself am one of them, that capitalism is... Benito Mussolini
John Mason Brown quote: "The purpose of writing is to hold a mirror to nature, but too..."
The purpose of writing is to hold a mirror to nature, but too much today is written from small mirrors in vanity cases. John Mason Brown
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway. If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; succeed anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway… You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them... Mother Teresa
Dr. Seuss quote: "Congratulations! Today is your day. You're off to Great..."
Congratulations! Today is your day. You're off to Great Places! You're off and away! Dr. Seuss
Good programming, like good books, asks a little more of the viewer. But no executive today will risk having the viewer bored for even a minute. Fareed Zakaria
Charles Dickens quote: "My advice is, never do to-morrow what you can do to-day"
My advice is, never do to-morrow what you can do to-day Charles Dickens
The reporter asked, "why did you play so hard."Because there might have been somebody in the stands today who'd never seen my play before, and might never see me again"-Joe DiMaggio Joe DiMaggio
They fathomed principle; they attached themselves to right. They longed for the absolute, they caught glimpses of the infinite realisations; the absolute, by its very rigidity, pushes the mind towards the boundless, makes it float in the illimitable. There is nothing like dream to create the future. Utopia today, flesh and blood tomorrow. Victor Hugo
I don't think that a novel is supposed to be a guide book to happiness any more than it's supposed to be a journal of one's personal pain and frustration, which most novels are today, unfortunately. I think the novels that are most important are those that are more on the order of those coyotes that howl on the hills outside of town. Something mysterious and wild and hypnotic. Tom Robbins
