It is human nature to think wisely and act in an absurd fashion.
Anatole France
Be like a postage stamp. Stick to one thing until you get there.
Josh Billings
What you don't do can be a destructive force.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I'm not going to say I was opposed to the Vietnam War. I'm going to say I'm opposed to war. But I'm also opposed to protests that deny other people their rights.
John Wooden
In other words don't expect to always be great. Disappointments failures and setbacks are a normal part of the lifecycle of a unit or a company and what the leader has to do is constantly be up and say 'we have a problem let's go and get it'.
Colin Powell
Great investment opportunities come around when excellent companies are surrounded by unusual circumstances that cause the stock to be misappraised.
Warren Buffett
The debates of that great assembly are frequently vague and perplexed seeming to be dragged rather than to march to the intended goal. Something of this sort must I think always happen in public democratic assemblies.
Alexis de Tocqueville
The older I get the more important the eternal becomes to me personally.
Billy Graham
It is only a man's own fundamental thoughts that have truth and life in them. For it is these that he really and completely understands. To read the thoughts of others is like taking the remains of someone else's meal, like putting on the discarded clothes of a stranger.
Arthur Schopenhauer
They are at the end of the gallery, retired to their tea and scandal according to their ancient custom.
William Congreve
