It is created here, throughout a whole life. And living is nothing else but that long and painful bringing forth.[Albert Camus] Quote:A single lie destroys a whole reputation of integrity.[Baltasar Gracian] Quote:One deceit needs many others, and so the whole house is built in the air and must soon come to the ground.[Baltasar Gracian] Quote:When a whole nation is roaring patriotism at the top of its voice, I am fain to explore the cleanness of its hands and purity of its heart.[Ralph Waldo Emerson] Quote:Liberty exists in proportion to wholesome restraint.[Daniel Webster] Quote:If a man has talent and can't use it, he's failed.

If he uses the whole of it, he has succeeded, and won a satisfaction and triumph few men ever know.[Thomas Wolfe] Quote:Such is the delicacy of man alone, that no object is produced to his liking. He finds that in everything there is need for improvement. The whole industry of human life is employed not in procuring the supply of our three humble necessities, food, clothes and lodging, but in procuring the conveniences of it according to the nicety and delicacy of our tastes.[Adam Smith] Quote:I know of no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves; and if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.[Thomas Jefferson] Quote:The whole trouble is that we won't let God help us.[George MacDonald] Quote:A finer body of men has never been gathered by any nation than the men who have done the work of building the Panama Canal; the conditions under which they have lived and have done their work have been better than in any similar work ever undertaken in the tropics; they have all felt an eager pride in their work; and they have made not only America but the whole world their debtors by what they have accomplished.[Theodore Roosevelt] Quote:The great principle which this house ought to guard and cherish is that, when the tax collector comes to the private citizen and takes from him of his wealth for the services of the public, the whole of that money taken shall go for the purposes for which it is intended, and that no private interests, however powerfully they may be organized and however eloquently advocated, shall thrust their dirty fingers into the pie and take the profits for themselves.[Winston Churchill] Quote:If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents - the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else's. But if their thoughts - i.e., of Materialism and Astronomy - are merely accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true?I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents.It's like expecting that the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milk-jug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:The whole problem can be stated quite simply by asking, 'Is there a meaning to music?' My answer would be, 'Yes.' And 'Can you state in so many words what the meaning is?' My answer to that would be, 'No.' [Aaron Copland] Quote:Underlying the whole scheme of civilization is the confidence men have in each other, confidence in their integrity, confidence in their honesty, confidence in their future. [Havelock Ellis] Quote:Dreams are postcards from our subconscious, inner self to outer self, right brain trying to cross that moat to the left. Too often they come back unread: "return to sender, addressee unknown." That's a shame because it's a whole other world out there--or in here depending on your point of view. [Dennis Koenig and Jordan Budde] Quote:Einstein said God doesn't play dice with the universe, but I don't know--maybe not as a whole, but I think he gets a pretty big kick out of messing in peoples' back yards. [Dennis Koenig and Jordan Budde] Quote:I have enjoyed greatly the second blooming?suddenly you find - at the age of 50, say - that a whole new life has opened before you. [Agatha Christie] Quote:If the only prayer you ever say in your whole life is "thank you," that would suffice. [Meister Eckhart] Quote:One person can have a profound effect on another. And two people...well, two people can work miracles. They can change a whole town. They can change the world. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:A little Madness in the Spring Is wholesome even for the King. [Emily Dickinson] Quote:He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.
