"If money is your hope for independence you will never have it. The only real security that a man will have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience, and ability."
Henry Ford
"To God all things are beautiful, good, and right; human beings, on the other hand, deem some things right and others wrong. It would not be better if things happened to people just as they wish."
Heraclitus
"There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One is roots; the other, wings."
Hodding Carter
"In the midst of hopes and cares, of apprehensions and of disquietude, regard every day that dawns upon you as if it was to be your last; then super-added hours, to the enjoyment of which you had not looked forward, will prove an acceptable boon."
Horace
"A good storyteller is a person who has a good memory and hopes other people haven't."
Irvin Shrewsbury Cobb
"Suppose that we are wise enough to learn and know and yet not wise enough to control our learning and knowledge, so that we use it to destroy ourselves? Even if that is so, knowledge remains better than ignorance. It is better to know even if the knowledge endures only for the moment that comes before destruction than to gain eternal life at the price of a dull and swinish lack of comprehension of a universe that swirls unseen before us in all its wonder. That was the choice of Achilles, and it is mine, too."
Isaac Asimov
"Humanity has the stars in its future, and that future is too important to be lost under the burden of juvenile folly and ignorant superstition."
Isaac Asimov
"At the moment of death I hope to be surprised."
Ivan Illich
"The art of acceptance is the art of making someone who has just done you a small favor wish that he might have done you a greater one."
J. Russel Lynes
"If I ever get real rich, I hope I'm not real mean to poor people, like I am now."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I hope some animal never bores a hole in my head and lays its eggs in my brain, because later you might think you're having a good idea but it's just eggs hatching."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"If I come back as an animal in my next lifetime, I hope it's some type of parasite, because this is the part where I take it EASY!"
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"If I ever do a book on the Amazon, I hope I am able to bring a certain lightheartedness to the subject, in a way that will tell the reader we are going to have fun with this thing."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I hope that after I die, people will say of me: 'That guy sure owed me a lot of money.'"
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"If God dwells inside us, like some people say, I sure hope He likes enchiladas, because that's what He's getting!"
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish I had a kryptonite cross, because then you could keep both Dracula AND Superman away."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I hope that someday we will be able to put away our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish I lived on a planet that had two suns---regular sun and 'rogue' sun. That way, when somebody asked me what time it was, I'd say, 'Regular time?' And they'd say, 'Yeah.' And I'd say, 'Sorry, all I have is rogue time.' It'd be fun to be a stuck-up rogue-time guy."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"Instead of putting a quarter under a kid's pillow, how about a pinecone? That way, he learns that 'wishing' isn't going to save our national forests."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
"I wish everybody would have to have an electric thing implanted in our heads that gave us a shock whenever we did something to disobey the president. Then somehow I get myself elected president."
Jack Handey [Deep Thoughts]
