Text Quotes
Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though sometimes it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward (Which Quotes)
None of our men are experts. We have most unfortunately found it necessary to get rid of a man as soon as he thinks himself an expert because no one ever considers himself expert if he really knows his job. A man who knows a job sees so much more to be done than he has done, that he is always pressing forward and never gives up an instant of thought to how good and how efficient he is. Thinking always ahead, thinking always of trying to do more, brings a state of mind in which nothing is impossible. The moment one gets into the expert state of mind a great number of things become impossible (Which Quotes)
If you think of standardization as the best that you know today, but which is to be improved tomorrow; you get somewhere (Which Quotes)
Marriage is the operation by which a woman's vanity and a man's egotism are extracted without an anaesthetic (Which Quotes)
Thank God every morning when you get up, that you have something to do that day which must be done, whether you like it or not. Being forced to work and forced to do your best will breed in you temperance and self-control, diligence and strength of will, cheerfulness and content, and a hundred virtues which the idle never know (Which Quotes)
When someone says that I'm angry it's actually a compliment. I have not always been direct with my anger in my relationships, which is part of why I'd write about it in my songs because I had such fear around expressing anger as a woman (Which Quotes)
Little men with little minds and little imaginations go through life in little ruts, smugly resisting all changes which would jar their little worlds (Which Quotes)
The past is not dead, it is living in us, and will be alive in the future which we are now helping to make (Which Quotes)
To sit in judgment of those things which you perceive to be wrong or imperfect is to be one more person who is part of judgment, evil or imperfection (Which Quotes)
The truth is not simply what you think it is; it is also the circumstances in which it is said, and to whom, why, and how it is said (Which Quotes)
Sober perseverance is more effective than enthusiastic emotions, which are all too capable of being transferred, with little difficulty, to something different each day (Which Quotes)
The faith which you keep must be a faith that demands obedience, and you can keep it only by obeying it (Which Quotes)
Virtue is the daughter of religion; repentance, her adopted child, - a poor orphan who, without the asylum which she offers, would not know where to hide her sole treasure, her tears! (Which Quotes)
The sight of such a monument is like continual and stationary music which one hears for one's good as one approaches it (Which Quotes)
I love art, and I love history, but it is living art and living history that I love. It is in the interest of living art and living history that I oppose so-called restoration. What history can there be in a building bedaubed with ornament, which cannot at the best be anything but a hopeless and lifeless imitation of the hope and vigor of the earlier world? (Which Quotes)
Simplicity of life, even the barest, is not a misery, but the very foundation of refinement; a sanded floor and whitewashed walls and the green trees, and flowery meads, and living waters outside; or a grimy palace amid the same with a regiment of housemaids always working to smear the dirt together so that it may be unnoticed; which, think you, is the most refined, the most fit for a gentleman of those two dwellings? (Which Quotes)
From the midst of the fountains of pleasures there rises something of bitterness which torments us amid the very flowers (Which Quotes)
There are but two future verbs which man may appropriate confidently and without pride: I shall suffer, and I shall die (Which Quotes)
All the best stories in the world are but one story in reality - the story of escape. It is the only thing which interests us all and at all times, how to escape (Which Quotes)
Every human society possesses a mythology which is inherited, transmitted and diversified by literature (Which Quotes)
Ask the world to reveal its quietude - not the silence of machines when they are still, but the true quiet by which birdsongs, trees, bellworts, snails, clouds, storms become what they are, and are nothing else (Which Quotes)
You have at hand many examples of good character from whom you will have learned the lessons by which you can live your own lives. You are blessed. Make the most of it (Which Quotes)
A high station in life is earned by the gallantry with which appalling experiences are survived with grace (Which Quotes)
Most of the confidence which I appear to feel, especially when influenced by noon wine, is only a pretense (Which Quotes)
I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed (Which Quotes)
Men of genius are not quick judges of character. Deep thinking and high imagining blunt that trivial instinct by which you and I size people up (Which Quotes)
He's just a contact of hers, which is not the same as a friend. While she was in the hospital she decided that most of her friends were really just contacts (Which Quotes)
As all historians know, the past is a great darkness, and filled with echoes. Voices may reach us from it; but what they say to us is imbued with the obscurity of the matrix out of which they come; and, try as we may, we cannot always decipher them precisely in the clearer light of our own day (Which Quotes)
If, then, you are looking for the way by which you should go, take Christ, because He Himself is the way (Which Quotes)
The highest manifestation of life consists in this: that a being governs its own actions. A thing which is always subject to the direction of another is somewhat of a dead thing (Which Quotes)
