| Quote:The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.[Albert Einstein] Quote:Whenever you find a man who says he doesn't believe in a real Right and Wrong, you will find the same man going back on this a moment later.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use.[Galileo Galilei] Quote:A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.[Germaine Greer] Quote:America is not like a blanket: one piece of unbroken cloth, the same color, the same texture, the same size. America is more like a quilt: many patches, many pieces, many colors, many sizes, all woven and held together by a common thread.[Jesse Jackson] Quote:If we cut up beasts simply because they cannot prevent us and because we are backing our own side in the struggle for existence, it is only logical to cut up imbeciles, criminals, enemies, or capitalists for the same reasons.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.[C.S.

In other words, things will be pretty much the same as they are now.[Dave Barry] Quote:Males have a lot of trouble not looking at breasts. What is worse, males cannot look at breasts and think at the same time. In fact, scientists now believe that the primary biological function of breasts is to make males stupid. This was proved in a famous 1978 laboratory experiment wherein a team of leading male psychological researchers at Yale deliberately looked at photographs of breasts every day for two years, at the end of which they concluded that they had failed to take any notes.[Dave Barry] Quote:Back in the old days, most families were close-knit. Grown children and their parents continued to live together, under the same roof, sometimes in the same small, crowded room, year in and year out, until they died, frequently by strangulation.[Dave Barry] Quote:I have not felt remotely cool for a long time, thanks largely to the relentless efforts of my teenage son, whose goal in life is to make me feel 3,500 years old. We'll be in the car, and he'll say, 'You wanna hear my new CD?' And I, flattered that he thinks his old man might like the same music he does, will say 'Sure!' So he increases the sound-system volume setting from '4' to 'Meteor Impact,' and he puts in a CD by a band with a name like 'Pustule,' and the next thing I know gigantic nuclear bass notes have blown out all the car windows and activated both the driver- and passenger-side air bags, and I'm writhing on the floor, screaming for mercy with jets of blood spurting three feet from my ears. My son then ejects the CD, smiling contentedly, knowing he as purchased a winner. On those extremely rare occasions when I like one of his CDs, I imagine he destroys it with a blowtorch.[Dave Barry] Quote:It is not once nor twice but times without number that the same ideas make their appearance in the world.[Aristotle] Quote:My coat and I live comfortably togther. It has assumed all my wrinkles, does not hurt me anywhere, has moulded itself on my deformities, and is complacent to all my movements, and I only feel its presence because it keeps me warm. Old coats and old friends are the same thing.[Victor Hugo] Quote:It is a grand mistake to think of being great without goodness and I pronounce it as certain that there was never a truly great man that was not at the same time truly virtuous.[Benjamin Franklin] Quote:We're all on the same roller coaster, just in different seats.[Jason Mechalek] Quote:The heart of marriage is memories; and if the two of you happen to have the same ones and can savor your reruns, then your marriage is a gift from the gods.[Bill Cosby] Quote:For in the final analysis, our most basic common link, is that we all inhabit this small planet, we all breathe the same air, we all cherish our children's futures, and we are all mortal.[John F. Kennedy] Quote:A good book is the best of friends, the same to-day and for ever.[Martin Farquhar Tupper] Quote:Of course it's the same old story. Truth usually is the same old story.[Margaret Thatcher] Quote:We all wish to be judged by our peers, by the men 'after our own heart.' Only they really know our mind and only they judge it by standards we fully acknowledge. Theirs is the praise we really covet and the blame we really dread. The little pockets of early Chrstians survived because they cared exclusively for the love of 'the bretheren' and stopped their ears to the opinion of the Pagan society around them. But a circle of criminals, cranks, or perverts survives in just the same way; by becoming deaf to the opinion of the outer world, by discounting it as the chatter of outsiders who 'don't understand,' of the 'conventional,' the 'bourgeois,' the 'Establishment,' of prigs, prudes, and humbugs.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:Of course the people dont want war...that is understood. But voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.[Hermann Goering] Quote:Music makes one feel so romantic - at least it always gets on one's nerves - which is the same thing nowadays.[Oscar Wilde] Quote:Birth and death are not two different states, but they are different aspects of the same state. There is as little reason to deplore the one as there is to be pleased over the other.[Mahatma Gandhi] Quote:Success does not consist in never making mistakes but in never making the same one a second time.[George Bernard Shaw] Quote:Sometimes the majority just means all the idiots are on the same side.[Author Unknown] Quote:That is the true season of love, when we believe that we alone can love, that no one could ever have loved so before us, and that no one will love in the same way after us.[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe] Quote:For in the final analysis, our most basic common link, is that we all inhabit this small planet, we all breathe the same air, we all cherish our children's futures, and we are all mortal.[John F. Kennedy] Quote:The man who views the world at 50 the same as he did at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.[Muhammad Ali] Quote:Only those who are fit to live do not fear to die. And none are fit to die who have shrunk from the joy of life and the duty of life. Both life and death are parts of the same great adventure.[Theodore Roosevelt] Quote:Man [has] always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much-the wheel, New York, wars and so on-while all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man-for precisely the same reason.[Douglas Adams] Quote:If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things.[Plato] Quote:Statistics: The only science that enables different experts using the same figures to draw different conclusions. [Evan Esar] Quote:An object in possession seldom retains the same charm that it had in pursuit. [Pliny the Younger] Quote:The quality of mercy is not strain'd, <br>It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven <br>Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest: <br>It blesseth him that gives and him that takes. <br>'T is mightiest in the mightiest: it becomes <br>The throned monarch better than his crown; <br>His sceptre shows the force of temporal power, <br>The attribute to awe and majesty, <br>Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings; <br>But mercy is above this sceptred sway, <br>It is enthroned in the hearts of kings, <br>It is an attribute to God himself; <br>And earthly power doth then show likest God's, <br>When mercy seasons justice. Therefore, Jew, <br>Though justice be thy plea, consider this, <br>That in the course of justice none of us <br>Should see salvation: we do pray for mercy; <br>And that same prayer doth teach us all to render <br>The deeds of mercy. [William Shakespeare] Quote:I love life...Yeah, I'm sad, but at the same time, I'm really happy that something could make me feel that sad. It's like...It makes me feel alive, you know. It makes me feel human. The only way I could feel this sad now is if I felt something really good before. So I have to take the bad with the good. So I guess what I'm feeling is like a beautiful sadness. [Trey Parker and Matt Stone] Quote:To harken to evil conversation is the road to wickedness.. (Pravis Assuescere Sermonibus Est Via Ad Rem Ipsam) [Anonymous] Quote:Liberals are very broadminded: they are always willing to give careful consideration to both sides of the same side. [Anonymous] Quote:Why is it that our memory is good enough to retain the least triviality that happens to us, and yet not good enough to recollect how often we have told it to the same person? [Francois de La Rochefoucauld] Quote:Isn't it interesting that the same people who laugh at science fiction listen to weather forecasts and economists? [Laurence J. Peter] Quote:I've learned that you can't have everything and do everything at the same time. [Oprah Winfrey] Quote:If a dog jumps in your lap, it is because he is fond of you; but if a cat does the same thing, it is because your lap is warmer. [Alfred North Whitehead] Quote:Half of the American people have never read a newspaper. Half never voted for President. One hopes it is the same half. [Gore Vidal] Quote:Half of the American people have never read a newspaper. Half never voted for President. One hopes it is the same half. [Gore Vidal] Quote:We think having faith means being convinced God exists in the same way we are convinced a chair exists. People who cannot be completely convinced of God?s existence think faith is impossible for them. Not so. People who doubt can have great faith because faith is something you do, not something you think. In fact, the greater your doubt the more heroic your faith. [Real Live Preacher] Quote:This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer. [Will Rogers] Quote:When there is an income tax, the just man will pay more and the unjust less on the same amount of income. [Plato] Quote:When men exercise their reason coolly and freely on a variety of distinct questions, they inevitably fall into different opinions on some of them. When they are governed by a common passion, their opinions, if they are to be called, will be the same. [Alexander Hamilton] Definitions of: samDefinition: Together. |
