"The art of drawing conclusions from experiments and observations consists in evaluating probabilities and in estimating whether they are sufficiently great or numerous enough to constitute proofs. This kind of calculation is more complicated and more difficult than it is commonly thought to be. . ."
Antoine Laurent Lavoisier
"Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that."
Michael Leuning
"Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power."
Abraham Lincoln
"Getting ahead in a difficult profession -- singing, acting, writing, whatever -- requires avid faith in yourself. You must be able to sustain yourself against staggering blows and unfair reversals. When I think back to those first couple of years in Rome, those endless rejections, without a glimmer of encouragement from anyone, all those failed screen tests, and yet I never let my desire slide away from me, my belief in myself and what I felt I could achieve."
Sophia Loren
"There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order to things."
Niccolo Machiavelli
"There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order to things."
Niccolo Machiavelli
"I will persist until I succeed. Always will I take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another. In truth, one step at a time is not too difficult.... I know that small attempts, repeated, will complete any undertaking."
Og Mandino
"It is more difficult, and it calls for higher energies of soul, to live a martyr than to die one."
Horace Mann
"The difficult part in an argument is not to defend one's opinion, but rather to know it."
André Maurois

Phyllis McGinley
"When people ask if the United States can afford to place on trial the president, if the system can stand impeachment, my answer is, "Can we stand anything else?"
George Stanley McGovern
"Animals are reliable, many full of love, true in their affections, predictable in their actions, grateful and loyal. Difficult standards for people to live up to."
Alfred A. Montapert
"The difficulty in life is the choice."
George Moore
"Only grown-ups have difficulty with childproof bottles."
Joe Moore
"Difficulty is the excuse history never accepts."
Edward R(oscoe) Murrow
"As this long and difficult war ends, I would like to address a few special words to ... the American people: Your steadfastness in supporting our insistence on peace with honor has made peace with honor possible." (On the Vietnam War)"
Richard Milhouse Nixon
"All things are difficult before they are easy."
John Norley
