Frederick the Great
You cannot push any one up a ladder unless he be willing to climb a little himself.
A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right. A man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice. A man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true.

Before the tribunal of nature, a man has no more right to life than a rattlesnake; he has no more right to liberty than any wild beast; his right to the pursuit of happiness is nothing but a license to maintain the struggle for existence, if he can find within himself the powers with which to do it.
Just because a man lacks the use of his eyes doesn’t mean he lacks vision.
An artist is always alone – if he is an artist. No, what the artist needs is loneliness.

A good teacher, like a good entertainer first must hold his audience‘s attention, then he can teach his lesson.
Man’s main task in life is to give birth to himself, to become what he potentially is. The most important product of his effort is his own personality.

He who has the fastest golf cart never has a bad lie.

Our problems are man-made, therefore they may be solved by man. And man can be as big as he wants. No problem of human destiny is beyond human beings.
He who hath many friends hath none.
Ministers should not pray so loud, and long, as to exhaust the strength. It is not necessary to weary the throat and lungs in prayer. God’s ear is ever open to hear the heart-felt petitions of his humble servants, and he does not require them to wear out the organs of speech in addressing him.
It is not death that a man should fear, but he should fear never beginning to live.
If anyone is crazy enough to want to kill a president of the United States, he can do it. All he must be prepared to do is give his life for the president’s.
I think people need to be educated to the fact that marijuana is not a drug. Marijuana is an herb and a flower. God put it here. If He put it here and He wants it to grow, what gives the government the right to say that God is wrong?
Anyone who conducts an argument by appealing to authority is not using his intelligence; he is just using his memory.

Treat your friend as if he might become an enemy.

He who desires, but acts not, breeds pestilence.
I like the story about Henry David Thoreau, who, when he was on his death bed, his family sent for a minister. The minister said, ‘Henry, have you made your peace with God?’ Thoreau said, ‘I didn’t know we’d quarreled.’
Above all, remember that God looks for solid virtues in us, such as patience, humility, obedience, abnegation of your own will – that is, the good will to serve Him and our neighbor in Him. His providence allows us other devotions only insofar as He sees that they are useful to us.

When ‘Top Gun‘ came out, my sisters were like, ‘Oh, my God, ‘Top Gun!’ Tom Cruise!’ And I very confidently said, ‘I’m going to marry him one day.’ It wasn’t like, ‘How do I get to Tom Cruise?’ It was just, ‘I think I’m going to marry him. Why not? He’ll like me. I’m fun.’

The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone.
Henrik Ibsen
He who does not trust enough, Will not be trusted.
We need to find God, and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch souls.

A Lawyer will do anything to win a case, sometimes he will even tell the truth.
Patrick Murray
I see the church as a field hospital after battle. It is useless to ask a seriously injured person if he has high cholesterol and about the level of his blood sugars. You have to heal his wounds. Then we can talk about everything else.
At one point, I recognized that Warren Buffett, though he had every advantage in learning from Ben Graham, did not copy Ben Graham but, rather, set out on his own path and ran money his way, by his own rules… I also immediately internalized the idea that no school could teach someone how to be a great investor.
The main business of a lawyer is to take the romance, the mystery, the irony, the ambiguity out of everything he touches.
Question with boldness even the existence of a God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason, than that of blind-folded fear.
Richard Nixon is a no good, lying bastard. He can lie out of both sides of his mouth at the same time, and if he ever caught himself telling the truth, he’d lie just to keep his hand in.
Jesus didn’t say, ‘Blessed are those who care for the poor.’ He said, ‘Blessed are we where we are poor, where we are broken.’ It is there that God loves us deeply and pulls us into deeper communion with himself.
Acting deals with very delicate emotions. It is not putting up a mask. Each time an actor acts he does not hide; he exposes himself.

Sting’s my ideal man, because he’s a real man.

If a man is not faithful to his own individuality, he cannot be loyal to anything.

He that is discontented in one place will seldom be hap

He that is discontented in one place will seldom be happy in another.

For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught. To say the things he truly feels, and not the words of one who kneels.
Paul Anka

A man can fail many times, but he isn’t a failure until he begins to blame somebody else.
When God desires to destroy a thing, he entrusts its destruction to the thing itself. Every bad institution of this world ends by suicide.

Alphonse Karr
Any woman can fool a man if she wants to and if he’s in love with her.
I’m hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter. That’s what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that’s from being bright all the time, and trying to be brighter.
My dad’s a teacher and a football coach, and he found a job in New Jersey.
A man sooner or later discovers that he is the master-gardener of his soul, the director of his life.

Every man’s life ends the same way. It is only the details of how he lived and how he died that distinguish one man from another.
Fables should be taught as fables, myths as myths, and miracles as poetic fantasies. To teach superstitions as truths is a most terrible thing. The child mind accepts and believes them, and only through great pain and perhaps tragedy can he be in after years relieved of them.
Hypatia
Everything comes to him who hustles while he waits.
The child is not an empty being who owes whatever he knows to us who have filled him up with it. No, the child is the builder of man. There is no man existing who has not been formed by the child he once was.

A man has to live with himself, and he should see to it that he always has good company.
Charles Evans Hughes
