"Any life, no matter how long and complex it may be, is made up of a single moment - the moment in which a man finds out, once and for all, who he is."
Jorge Luis Borges
"I believe in an immortal soul. Science has proved that nothing disintegrates into nothingness. Life and soul, therefore, cannot disintegrate into nothingness, and so are immortal."
Wernher Magnus Maximilian von Braun
"Let the world know you as you are, not as you think you should be, because sooner or later, if you are posing, you will forget the pose, and then where are you?"
Fanny Brice
"Strong minded, resolutely willed, you can create out of nothing a great business, a huge empire, a new world. Others have and they have no monopoly."
Claude M. Bristol
"Listening, not imitation, may be the sincerest form of flattery."
Dr. Joyce
"My business is not to remake myself, but to make the absolute best of what God made."
Robert Browning
"The shrewd guess, the fertile hypothesis, the courageous leap to a tentative conclusion-these are the most valuable coins of the thinker at work. But in most schools guessing is heavily penalized and is associated somehow with laziness."
Jerome Seymour Bruner
"Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Happiness never decreases by being shared."
Buddha
"I'll tell you why I like the cigarette business. It cost a penny to make. Sell it for a dollar. It's addictive. And there's a fantastic brand loyalty."
Warren Buffett
"If we have been pleased with life, we should not be displeased with death, since it comes from the hand of the same master."
Michelangelo Buonarroti
"Retire? I'm going to stay in show business until I'm the only one left."
George Burns
"No cord or cable can draw so forcibly, or bind so fast, as love can do with a single thread."
Robert Burton
"The pictures of airplanes flying into buildings, fires burning, huge structures collapsing, have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness and a quiet, unyielding anger." [referring to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon]"
George Walker Bush
"Morality, taken as apart from religion, is but another name for decency in sin. It is just that negative species of virtue which consists in not doing what is scandalously depraved and wicked. But there is no heart of holy principle in it, any more than there is in the grosser sin."
Horace Bushnell
"Businesses planned for service are apt to succeed; businesses planned for profit are apt to fail."
Nicholas Murray Butler
"The advantage of doing one's praising for oneself is that one can lay it on so thick and in exactly the right places."
Samuel Butler
"It is in the uncompromisingness with which dogma is held and not in the dogma, or want of dogma, that the danger lies."
Samuel Butler
"But the greatest menace to our civilization today is the conflict between giant organized systems of self-righteousness -- each system only too delighted to find that the other is wicked -- each only too glad that the sins give it the pretext for still deeper hatred and animosity."
Herbert Butterfield
"Cervantes smiled Spain's chivalry away; A single laugh demolished the right arm Of his country."
George Gordon Byron
"For Scripture is the school of the Holy Spirit, in which, as nothing is omitted that is both necessary and useful to know, so nothing is taught but what is expedient to know. Therefore we must guard against depriving believers of anything disclosed about predestination in Scripture, lest we seem either wickedly to defraud them of the blessing of their God or to accuse and scoff at the Holy Spirit for having published what it is in any way profitable to suppress."
John Calvin
