Quote of the Day
If you would only recognize that life is hard, things would be so much easier for you.
Louis D. Brandeis
Not necessity, not desire - no, the love of power is the demon of men. Let them have everything - health, food, a place to live, entertainment - they are and remain unhappy and low-spirited: for the demon waits and waits and will be satisfied.
Friedrich Nietzsche
We must restore hope to young people, help the old, be open to the future, spread love. Be poor among the poor. We need to include the excluded and preach peace.
Pope Francis
Let's face it: professing a deep interest in movies, the absolutely dominant global art form of the last century, is at this point like professing an interest in air. Passion is nice. Erudition is admirable. But it's like that moment when good manners cross over into meaningless etiquette.
David Rakoff
And all the books you've read have been read by other people. And all the songs you've loved have been heard by other people. And that girl that's pretty to you is pretty to other people. and that if you looked at these facts when you were happy, you would feel great because you are describing 'unity.
Stephen Chbosky
Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other.
Rainer Maria Rilke
Joy is prayer; joy is strength: joy is love; joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.
Mother Teresa
I can't imagine a person becoming a success who doesn't give this game of life everything he's got.
Walter Cronkite
Despite my ghoulish reputation, I really have the heart of a small boy. I keep it in a jar on my desk.
Robert Bloch
Religious humor is not really my area, so I probably wouldn't do anything about that, or politics or something.
Chris Lilley
In the endthese things matter most:How well did you love?How fully did you live?How deeply did you let go?
Gautama Buddha
If your goal is to make money, becoming an entrepreneur is a sucker's bet. Sure, some entrepreneurs make a lot of money, but if you calculate the amount of stress-inducing work and time it takes and multiply that by the low likelihood of success and eventual payoff, it is not a great way to get rich.
Eric Ries
I'm happy to be on a winning team. My individual success, that lasts for a short period of time. The success of being a part of the South, of Atlanta, which is now the hot bed of music, that's what's gonna last the longest. The fact that I contributed to planting our flag and moving music to my city, that's what I'm most proud of.
