Magnificently unprepared for the long littleness of life.

James Dobson: What is...

What is the biggest obstacle facing the family right now? It is over-commitment; time pressure. There is nothing that will destroy family life more insidiously than hectic schedules and busy lives, where spouses are too exhausted to communicate, too worn out to have sex, too fatigued to talk to the kids. That frantic lifestyle is just as destructive as one involving outbroken sin. If Satan can't make you sin, he'll make you busy, and that's just about the same thing.
/James Dobson/

Tony Garza: Look at...

Look at Mexico. We need to make that government better and end the corruption. If people have a better life in their country, they won't come over here.
/Tony Garza/

Corita Kent: Love the...

Love the moment. Flowers grow out of dark moments. Therefore, each moment is vital. It affects the whole. Life is a succession of such moments and to live each, is to succeed.
/Corita Kent/

Sigmund Freud: If a...

If a man has been his mother's undisputed darling he retains throughout life the triumphant feeling, the confidence in success, which not seldom brings actual success along with it.

William O. Douglas: Religious experiences...

Religious experiences which are as real as life to some may be incomprehensible to others.
/William O. Douglas/

Will Rogers: Believe in...

Believe in something for another world, but don't be too set on what it is, and then you won't start out that life with a disappontment. Live your life so that whenever you lose you are ahead.
/Will Rogers/

Owen Feltham: By gaming...

By gaming we lose both our time and treasure - two things most precious to the life of man.
/Owen Feltham/

Joshua Loth Liebman: The primary...

The primary joy of life is acceptance, approval, the sense of appreciation and companionship of our human comrades. Many men do not understand that the need for fellowship is really as deep as the need for food, and so they go through life accepting many substitutes for genuine, warm, simple relatedness.
/Joshua Loth Liebman/

Lev Tolstoy: The subject...

The subject of history is the life of peoples and of humanity. To catch and pin down in words--that is, to describe directly the life, not only of humanity, but even of a single people, appears to be impossible.
/Lev Tolstoy/

Robert E. McAfee: Through television...

Through television and movies, our society is a virtual captive of an entire world of violence - once-removed from the streets, and channelled on TV directly into our homes. By age 18, a child today will have witnessed 40,000 killings and 200,000 acts of violence right in their own living rooms. And no one can tell me that doesn't devalue human life in the eyes of our children.
/Robert E. McAfee/

Anatole France: Night has...

Night has come! Leaning from the window, we gaze at the vast sombre stretch of the city below us, pierced with multitudinous points of light. Jeanne presses her hand to her forehead as she leans upon the window-bar, and seems a little sad. And I say to myself as I watch her: All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves: we must die in one life before we can enter into another!<br>My guardian, I am so happy; and still I feel as if I wanted to cry!
/Anatole France/

Aaron Sorkin: More than...

More than any time in recent history, America's destiny is not of our own choosing. We did not seek nor did we provoke an assault on our freedom and our way of life. We did not expect nor did we invite a confrontation with evil. Yet the true measure of a people's strength is how they rise to master that moment when it does arive...The streets of heaven are too crowded with angels, but every time we think we have measured our capacity to meet a challenge, we look up and we're reminded that that capacity may well be limitless. This is a time for American heroes. We will do what is hard. We will achieve what is great. This is a time for American heroes and we reach for the stars...
/Aaron Sorkin/

Anthony Robbins: Your life...

Your life changes the moment you make a new, congruent, and committed decision.
/Anthony Robbins/

Ludwig Quidde: In life,...

In life, particularly in public life, psychology is more powerful than logic.

Walter Savage Landor: There is...

There is no easy path leading out of life, and few easy ones that lie within it.
/Walter Savage Landor/

Michael Irvin: You made...

You made it something special. Most of all, I want to thank the fans for your support not through the great times that we shared on the football field, but for the last 17 years of my life. You have supported me through all times.
/Michael Irvin/

Ian Jackson: What we...

What we did ten years ago with the Playstation was a phenomenal success story for the company. That product had a ten year life cycle, which has never been done in this industry.
/Ian Jackson/

Angelo Patri: Queer little...

Queer little twists go into the making of an individual. To supress them all and follow clock and calendar and creed until the individual is lost in the neutral grey of the host is to be less than true to our inheritance... Life, that gorgeous quality of life, is not accomplished by following another man's rules. It is true we have the same hungers and same thirsts, but they are for different things and in different ways and in different seasons... Lay down your own day, follow it to its noon, your own noon, or you will sit in an outer hall listening to the chimes but never reaching high enough to strike your own.
/Angelo Patri/

Bernard Baruch: Whatever failures...

Whatever failures I have known, whatever errors I have committed, whatever follies I have witnessed in private and public life have been the consequence of action without thought.
/Bernard Baruch/

Giovanni Papini: Breathing is...

Breathing is the greatest pleasure in life.
/Giovanni Papini/

Scott Adams: You don't...

You don't have to be a person of influence to be influential. In fact, the most influential people in my life are probably not even aware of the things they've taught me.
/Scott Adams/

Ella Wheeler Wilcox: There's one...

There's one sad truth in life I've found<BR>While journeying east and west -<BR>The only folks we really wound<BR>Are those we love the best.<BR>We flatter those we scarcely know,<BR>We please the fleeting guest,<BR>And deal full many a thoughtless blow<BR>To those who love us best.
/Ella Wheeler Wilcox/

When your are playing for the national championship, it's not a matter of life or death. It's more important than that.

A poor life this if, full of care,<BR>We have no time to stand and stare.

If you don't own a dog, at least one, there is not necessarily anything wrong with you, but there may be something wrong with your life.
/Roger Caras/

Irene C. Kassorla: You must...

You must have control of the authorship of your own destiny. The pen that writes your life story must be held in your own hand.
/Irene C. Kassorla/

Robert Brault: Dancing is...

Dancing is moving to the music without stepping on anyone's toes, pretty much the same as life.
/Robert Brault/

Charles Edward Montague: A gifted...

A gifted small girl has explained that pins are a great means of saving life, by not swallowing them.
/Charles Edward Montague/

Robert Stuberg: The trouble...

The trouble with so many of us is that we underestimate the power of simplicity. We have a tendency it seems to over complicate our lives and forget what's important and what's not. We tend to mistake movement for achievement. We tend to focus on activities instead of results. And as the pace of life continues to race along in the outside world, we forget that we have the power to control our lives regardless of what's going on outside.
/Robert Stuberg/

Gus Van Sant: I'm a...

I'm a junkie. I like drugs, I like the whole lifestyle, but it just didn't pay off.
