| Quote:It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.[C.S. Lewis] Quote:It has been often said, very truly, that religion is the thing that makes the ordinary man feel extraordinary; it is an equally important truth that religion is the thing that makes the extraordinary man feel ordinary.[GK Chesterton] Quote:I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end.[Margaret Thatcher] Quote:Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about that; I'm right, and I will be proved right. We are more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first -- rock'n'roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.[John Lennon] Quote:Thus far, the reputed idiot Bush has graduated from Yale and Harvard, made a stack of cash in the oil industry, become the first consecutive-term governor of Texas, defeated a dual-term VP for the presidency, and led his party to [November 5th's] extraordinary triumphs. Let his opponents keep calling him stupid; if they do, within five years Bush will be King of England, the Pope, and world Formula One motor racing champion.[Tim Blair] Quote:A man can stand anything except a succession of ordinary days.[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe] Quote:A hero is no braver than an ordinary person, but he is braver five minutes longer.[Ralph Waldo Emerson] Quote:Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.[Carl Sagan] Quote:Ordinary life is pretty complex stuff.[Harvey Pekar] Quote:A Galileo could no more be elected president of the United States than he could be elected Pope of Rome. Both high posts are reserved for men favored by God with an extraordinary genius for swathing the bitter facts of life in bandages of self-illusion.[Henry Mencken] Quote:At the bottom every man knows well enough that he is a unique human being, only once on this earth; and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvelously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time.[Friedrich Nietzsche] Quote:That all men are equal is a proposition which, at ordinary times, no sane individual has ever given his assent. [Aldous Huxley] Quote:In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary. [Diane Frolov and Andrew Schneider] Quote:It seems to me that people have vast potential.
