The art of
being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.
William James
['Principles of Psychology', 1890]
Several
excuses are always less convincing than one.
Aldous Huxley
1928
True and False
are attributes of speech, not of things. And where speech is not, there is
neither Truth nor Falsehood.
Thoms Hobbes ['Leviathan', 1651]
Happiness is
not a destination. It is a method of life.
Burton Hills
If you hate a
person, you hate something in him that is a part of yourself. What isn't part
of ourselves doesn't disturb us.
Hermann Hesse ['Demian',
1919]
An expert is
someone who knows some of the worst mistakes that can be made in his subject
and who manages to avoid them.
William Heisenberg
If you must
speak ill of another, do not speak it . . . write it in the sand near the
water's edge.
Napoleon Hill
No man can
think clearly when his fists are clenched.
George Jean
Nathan
What we see
depends mainly on what we look for.
John Lubbock
Never tell the truth to people who are not worthy of it.
Mark
Twain
Home is not
where you live, but where they understand you.
Christian
Morgenstern
Our destiny
changes with our thought; we shall become what we wish to become, do what we
wish to do, when our habitual thought corresponds with our desire.
Orison S.
Marden
Emotions are
naught to be tormented, for they can kill a person in more ways than
one.
David Garrison
Animals are
reliable, many full of love, true in their affections, predictable in their
actions, grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up
to.
