QUOTES IV
More Quotes I Have Quathered


        Fools scatter about their many attributes, the wise keep such within;
        A piece of straw floats upon the surface of water,
        A precious gemstone sinks to the bottom!
        Therefore, it is best to disregard the seen and concentrate upon the unseen..
        Only within the latter may riches be found.

        Ancient Greek Parable


        The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
        Eleanor Roosevelt


        A man does what he must - in spite of personal consequences,
        in spite of obstacles and dangers and pressures -
        and that is the basis of all human morality.

        John F. Kennedy


        We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
        Norman MacEwan


        There is so much good in the worst of us, and so much bad in the best
        of us, that it behooves all of us not to talk about the rest of us.

        Robert Louis Stevenson


        What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies.
        Aristotle


        Anyone who proposes to do good must not expect people to
        roll stones out of his way, but must accept his lot calmly
        if they even roll a few more upon it.

        Albert Schweitzer


        To accomplish great things we must not only act, but also dream,
        not only plan, but also believe.

        Anatole France


        If you sit down at set of sun and count the acts that you have done,
        and counting find one self-denying deed, one word that eased the
        heart of him who heard, one glance most kind that fell like sunshine
        where it went - then you may count that day well spent.

        George Eliot


        A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his
        punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.

        Oscar Wilde


        Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
        Leo Tolstoy


        I am only one, but still I am one.
        I cannot do everything, but still I can do something;
        And because I cannot do everything,
        I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.

        Edward Everett Hale

        of celestial fire - conscience.

        George Washington

        you apologize for the truth.

        Benjamin Disnaeli

        Unknown


        All truth passes through three stages.
        First it is ridiculed,
        Second it is violently opposed,
        Third it is accepted as being self-evident.

        Arthur Schopenhauer


        Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us
        can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total of all
        those acts will be written the history of this generation.

        Robert F. Kennedy


        If you don't stand up for something, then you'll fall for anything.
