"An incompetent attorney can delay a trial for months
or years. A competent attorney can delay one even longer." "We are torn between the craving to know and the
despair of having known." "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one
thinks of changing himself." "Everybody loves an accent. If you've been unlucky in
love, consider pulling up stakes and moving to another country. Then you'll be the one
with a neat foreign accent." "It's true hard work never killed anybody, but I
figure, why take the chance?" "Always hold your head up, but be careful to keep your
nose at a friendly level." "A study in the Washington Post says that women have
better verbal skills than men. I just want to say to the authors of that study: Duh." "It is better to be faithful than famous." "A home-made friend wears longer than one you buy in
the market." "Every man is guilty of all the good he didn't
do." "The heart seldom feels what the mouth expresses." "When wealth is list, nothing is lost; when health is
lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost." "He that falls in love with himself will have no
rivals." "Shallow men believe in luck. Strong men believe in cause and effect." "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by
the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore.
Dream. Discover." "If I could be anything.. I would be your tear..to be
born in your eyes, live on your cheeks and die on your lips." "The world is a book, and those who do not travel, read
only a page." "Little things affect little minds." "The greatest difficulties lie where we are not looking
for them." "Courtesies of a small and trivial character are the
ones which strike deepest in the grateful and appreciating heart." "If the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the
ditch." "I mistrust the judgment of every man in a case in
which his own wishes are concerned." "I am always ready to learn, but I do not always like
being taught." "One can endure sorrows alone, but it takes two to be
glad." "We have women in the military, but they don't put us
in the front lines. They don't know if we can fight, if we can kill. I think we can.
All the general has to do is walk over to the women and say, 'You see the enemy
over there? They say you look fat in those uniforms.'" "Our body is a well-set clock, which keeps good time,
but if it be too much or indiscreetly tampered with, the alarm runs out before the
hour." "I've never met a person, I don't care what his
condition, in whom I could not see possibilities. I don't care how much a man may consider
himself a failure, I believe in him, for he can change the thing that is wrong in his life
at any time he is ready and prepared to do it. Whenever he develops the desire, he
can take away from his life the thing that is defeating it. The capacity for reformation
and change lies within." "If you are content, you have enough to live
comfortably." "Conversation would be vastly improved by the constant
use of four simple words: I do not know." "As soils are depleted, human health, vitality, and
intelligence go with them."
