I have approximate answers and possible beliefs and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I'm not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don't know anything about, such as whether it means anything to ask why we're here, and what the question might mean. I might think about it a little bit, but if I can't figure it out, then I go on to something else. But I don't have to know an answer. I don't have to. . .I don't feel frightened by not knowing things, by being lost in the mysterious universe without having any purpose, which is the way it really is, as far as I can tell, possibly. It doesn't frighten me. 
-- Richard Feynman
Seen on the side of an East German factory: To the workers of the world, I am sorry.
-- Karl Marx
Most of us can read the writing on the wall; we just assume it's addressed to someone else.
-- Ivern Ball
What flowers grow between your nose and your chin? Tulips. Fortune is like glass: It breaks when it is brightest. A man is not where he lives, but where he loves. Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible. Perfection is reached, not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away.
-- A. Saint-Exupery
Depression may be an exaggerated form of a response to loss that in less extreme form is adaptive. A depressed mood slows us down, makes us think realistically rather than optimistically, makes us turn away from goals that we can no longer hope to achieve, and signals to others that this is a time in life when we need some help.
-- Peter Gray
Some days you're the dog. Some days you're the hydrant. A friendship can weather most things and thrive in thin soil, but it needs a little mulch of letters and phone calls and small, silly presents every so often -- just to save it from drying out completely.
-- Pam Brown
A bird does not sing because it has an answer -- it sings because it has a song. God is real, unless declared integer. When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.
-- Wayne Dyer
If you want a definition of poverty, ask parents with three or four teenagers in the family. Jump To: [ About Us | Links | Daily Quote | Recent Addition | Mail Webmaster | Home ] | |||
