| Quote:Words which do not give the light of Christ increase the darkness.[Mother Teresa] 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:You have it easily in your power to increase the sum total of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged. Perhaps you will forget tomorrow the kind words you say today, but the recipient may cherish them over a lifetime.[Dale Carnegie] Quote:Bring your desires down to your present means. Increase them only when your increased means permit.[Aristotle] Quote:The criterion of true beauty is that it increases on examination; if false, that it lessens. There is therefore, something in true beauty that corresponds with right reason, and is not the mere creation of fancy.[Fulke Greville] Quote:The greater our knowledge increases the more our ignorance unfolds.[John F. Kennedy] Quote:As the circle of light increases, so does the circumference of darkness around it.[Albert Einstein] Quote:To waste, to destroy, our natural resources, to skin and exhaust the land instead of using it so as to increase its usefulness, will result in undermining in the days of our children the very prosperity which we ought by right to hand down to them.[Theodore Roosevelt] Quote:The history of liberty is a history of limitation of government power, not the increase of it.[Woodrow Wilson] Quote:If you do not wish to be prone to anger, do not feed the habit; give it nothing which may tend to its increase. [Epictetus] Quote:Lying increases the creative faculties, expands the ego, and lessens the frictions of social contacts. [Clare Booth Luce] Quote:Every increased possession loads us with new weariness. [John Ruskin] Quote:The avarice of the old: it's absurd to increase one's luggage as one nears the journey's end.
