| Quote:A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death.[Albert Einstein] Quote:Beauty is indeed a good gift of God; but that the good may not think it a great good, God dispenses it even to the wicked.[Saint Augustine] Quote:Indeed, man wishes to be happy even when he so lives as to make happiness impossible.[Saint Augustine] Quote:The last temptation is the greatest treason: to do the right deed for the wrong reason.[T.S. Eliot] Quote:We are indeed much more than what we eat, but what we eat can nevertheless help us to be much more than what we are.[Adelle Davis] Quote:If we command our wealth, we shall be rich and free; if our wealth commands us, we are poor indeed.[Edmund Burke] Quote:We live in deeds, not years: In thoughts not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.[Aristotle] Quote:It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. 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:You shall be free indeed when your days are not without care nor your nights without a want and a grief, But rather when these things girdle your life and yet you rise above them naked and unbound.[Kahlil Gibran] Quote:Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.[Margaret Mead] Quote:A man must be willing to die for justice. Death is an inescapable reality and men die daily, but good deeds live forever.[Jesse Jackson] Quote:Among the many misdeeds of the British rule in India, history will look upon the act depriving a whole nation of arms as the blackest.[Mahatma Gandhi] Quote:On life's journey faith is nourishment, virtuous deeds are a shelter, wisdom is the light by day and right mindfulness is the protection by night. If a man lives a pure life, nothing can destroy him.[Siddhartha Buddha] Quote:Every individual...generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it. By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry he intends only his own security; and by directing that industry in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention.[Adam Smith] Quote:The fruit that can fall without shaking, indeed is too mellow for me.[Lady Mary Wortley Montagu] Quote:I am indeed rich, since my income is superior to my expense, and my expense is equal to my wishes.[Kahlil Gibran] Quote:Talk of imminent threat to our national security through the application of external force is pure nonsense. Indeed it is part of the general pattern of misguided policy that our country is now geared to an arms economy which was bred in an artificially induced psychosis of war hysteria and nurtured upon an incessant propaganda of fear.[Douglas MacArthur] Quote:I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it. [Dwight D. Eisenhower] 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:Good name in man and woman, dear my lord, <br>Is the immediate jewel of their souls: <br>Who steals my purse steals trash; 'tis something, nothing; <br>'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands; <br>But he that filches from me my good name <br>Robs me of that which not enriches him <br>And makes me poor indeed. [William Shakespeare] Quote:Every minute you are thinking of evil, you might have been thinking of good instead. Refuse to pander to a morbid interest in your own misdeeds. Pick yourself up, be sorry, shake yourself, and go on again. [Evelyn Underhill] Quote:We are indeed much more than what we eat, but what we eat can nevertheless help us to be much more than what we are. [Adelle Davis] Quote:A fair request should be followed by the deed in silence. [Dante Alighieri] Quote:I know indeed what evil I intend to do,<br>but stronger than all my afterthoughts is my fury,<br>fury that brings upon mortals the greatest evils. [Euripides] Definitions of: deedDefinition: Dead.Definition: To convey or transfer by deed; as, he deeded all his estate to his eldest son. |
