Very Quotes (page 180)

To maintain the P/PC Balance, the balance between the golden egg (production) and the health and welfare of the goose (production capability) is often a difficult judgment call. But I suggest it is the very essence of effectiveness. Stephen Covey
When once married people begin to attack me with, 'Oh! you will think very differently, when you are married,' I can only say, 'No I shall not'; and then they say again, 'Yes you will,' and there is an end to it. Jane Austen
Love goes very far beyond the physical person of the beloved. It finds its deepest meaning in its spiritual being, his inner self. Whether or not he is actually present, whether or not he is still alive at all, ceases somehow to be of importance. Viktor E. Frankl
Claude Debussy quote: "People don't very much like things that are beautiful.. they..."
People don't very much like things that are beautiful.. they are so far from their nasty little minds. Claude Debussy
I thought physics could be done to the glory of God, till I saw there wasn’t any God at all and that physics was more interesting anyway. The Christian religion is a very powerful and convincing mistake, that’s all. Philip Pullman
Though I was standing in front of a mirror, I wasn't really seeing my reflection. I was seeing, very clearly, that—at the moment—I was all in the world that Eric could think of as his own. I had better not fail him. Charlaine Harris
F. Scott Fitzgerald quote: "I think they're very attractive,' Abe agreed. 'I just don't..."
I think they're very attractive,' Abe agreed. 'I just don't think they're attractive, that's all. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Stand Fast Through the Storms of Life."You will have all kinds of trials to pass through. And it is quite as necessary for you to be tried as it was for Abraham and other men of God... God will feel after you, and He will take hold of you and wrench your very heart strings and if you cannot stand it you will not be fit for an inheritance in the Celestial kingdom of God" -John Taylor recalls the words of Joseph Smith to the Twelve. JS manual page 231 Joseph Smith, Jr.
A. A. Milne quote: "A Proper Tea is much nicer than a Very Nearly Tea, which is..."
A Proper Tea is much nicer than a Very Nearly Tea, which is one you forget about afterwards. A. A. Milne
the map they are using does not indicate the village of Orce, how very inconsiderate on the part of the cartographers, I’ll bet they didn’t forget to indicate their own hometowns, in future they should remember how vexing it is for someone to check out his birthplace on a map only to find a blank space, this has given rise to the gravest of problems for those trying to establish personal and national identities. Jose Saramago
Lois McMaster Bujold quote: "The will to be stupid is a very powerful force, but there are..."
The will to be stupid is a very powerful force, but there are always alternatives. Lois McMaster Bujold
The pleasure in complete domination over another person (or other animate creature) is the very essence of the sadistic drive. Another way of formulating the same thought is to say that the aim of sadism is to transform man into a thing, something animate into something inanimate, since by complete and absolute control the living loses one essential quality of life - freedom. Erich Fromm
Antoine de Saint-Exupery quote: "That's the way they are. You must not hold it against them...."
That's the way they are. You must not hold it against them. Children should be very understanding of grown-ups. Antoine de Saint-Exupery
Yet, when these facts are seen side by side with other facts in the case, it is difficult not to become lost in superstitious awe. Their very absurdity seems to prohibit the use of the words 'chance' and 'coincidence.' For the sceptic there remains only one consolation: if there should be such a thing as superhuman Law, it is administered with sub-human inefficiency. Eric Ambler
Ethical axioms are found and tested not very differently from the axioms of science. Truth is what stands the test of experience. Albert Einstein
