The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.[Theodore Roosevelt] Quote:Curiousity killed the cat, but for a while I was a suspect.[Steven Wright] Quote:Love is the answer, but while you are waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty good questions.[Woody Allen] Quote:True pacifism is not unrealistic submission to an evil power...it is rather a courageous confrontation with evil by the power of love, in the faith that it is better to be the recipient of violence than the inflicter of it, since the latter only multiplies the existence of violence and bitterness in the universe, while the former may develop a sense of shame in the opponent, and thereby bring about a transformation and change of heart.[Martin Luther King Jr.] Quote:Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans.[John Lennon] Quote:It seemed the world was divided into good and bad people. The good ones slept better, while the bad ones seemed to enjoy the waking hours much more.[Woody Allen] Quote:I have learnt 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.[Booker T. Washington] Quote:The heights by great men reached and kept, were not obtained by sudden flight. But they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.[Henry Wadsworth Longfellow] Quote:Cleaning your house while your kids are still growing is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.[Phyllis Diller] Quote:Such men as he be never at heart's ease whiles they behold a greater than themselves, and therefore are they very dangerous.[William Shakespeare] 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 you ever crawl inside an old hollow log and go to sleep, and while you're in there some guys come and seal up both ends and then put it on a truck and take it to another city, boy, I don't know what to tell you.[Jack Handey] Quote:All malice has injustice at it's end, an end achieved by violence or by fraud; while both are sins that earn the hate of heaven, since fraud belongs exclusively to man, God hates it more and, therefore, far below, the fraudulent are placed and suffer most.[Dante Alighieri] Quote:You are young, my son, and, as the years go by, time will change and even reverse many of your present opinions.

[David Assael] Quote:Exercise alone provides psychological and physical benefits. However, if you also adopt a strategy that engages your mind while you exercise, you can get a whole host of psychological benefits fairly quickly. [Joseph Addison] Quote:Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win. [Sun-tzu] Quote:Let me not be understood as saying that there are no bad laws, nor that grievances may not arise for the redress of which no legal provisions have been made. I mean to say no such thing. But I do mean to say that although bad laws, if they exist, should be repealed as soon as possible, still, while they continue in force, for the sake of example they should be religiously observed.
