People are not an interruption of our business. People are our business. A man's worst difficulties begin when he is able to do as he likes. It is hard to look up to a leader who keeps his ear to the ground. The most wasted day of all is that in which we have not laughed. The more intelligent a man is, the more originality he discovers in men. Ordinary people see no diff... The intelligence is proved not by ease of learning, but by understanding what we learn. Communication is something so simple and difficult that we can never put it in simple words. Like threads of silver seen through crystal beads How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it. In everyone's heart stirs a great homesickness. That is the supreme value of history. The study of it is the best guarantee against repeating it. Our wisdom comes usually from our experience, and our experience comes largely from our experience. One thing about the school of experience is that it will repeat the lesson if you flunk the first ti... To reprove small faults within due vehemence, is as absurd as if a man should take a great hammer to... Faith is like electricity. You can't see it, but you can see the light.

Some families can trace their ancestors back three hundred years, but can't tell you where their chi... A recent survey was said to prove that the people we Americans most admire are our politicians and d... If a man defrauds you one time, he is a rascal; if he does it twice, you are a fool. Flattery looks like friendship, just like a wolf looks like a dog. Forgiveness is the fragrance the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it. Courage is always greatest when blended with meekness; intellectual ability is most admired when it ... Freedom also includes the right to mismanage your own affairs. Let your friends be the friends of your deliberate choice. The man who has strong opinions and always says what he thinks is courageous - and friendless. Friendship is love with understanding. So few people think. When we find one who really does, we call him a genius Your life can't go according to plan if you have no plan. Practicing the Golden Rule is not a sacrifice; it is an investment. Conversation is an exercise of the mind; gossip is merely an exercise of the tongue. An expert gossiper knows how much to leave out of a conversation To live so that you would not be ashamed to sell the family parrot to the town gossip, is to have li... Gossip is sometimes referred to as halitosis of the mind If you would attain greatness, think no little thoughts. We are born brave, trusting and greedy, and most of us remain greedy. People are changed, not by coercion or intimidation, but by example. Children are natural mimics; they act like their parents in spite of every effort to teach them good... The guilty catch themselves. Good habits are formed; bad habits we fall into. If happiness could be brought, few of us could pay the price. Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have. Happiness is in the heart, not in the circumstances. It's never too late to have a happy childhood. Hatred is a boomerang which is sure to hit you harder than the one at whom you throw it. Hate pollutes the mind. If we miraculously became the people we hate, how lovable we would find ourselves. To feel "fit as a fiddle" you must tone down your middle. Our health always seems much more valuable after we lose it. A patient going to a doctor for his first visit was asked, "And whom did you consult before coming t... "Oh," replied his patient, with no malice aforethought, "he told me to come and see you." It is impossible to make wisdom hereditary. Honesty is a question of right or wrong, not a matter of policy. It is a pleasure to give advice, humiliating to need it, normal to ignore it. It is almost impossible to smile on the outside without feeling better on the inside. Too many people confine their exercise to jumping to conclusions, running up bills, stretching the t... Imagination was given man to compensate for what he is not, and a sense of humor to console him for ... Humor - the perfect relationship of the parts to the whole. Our five senses are incomplete without the sixth - a sense of humor. "What made the deepest impression upon you?" inquired a friend one day of Lincoln, "when you stood i... It isn't easy for an idea to squeeze itself into a head filled with prejudice. Too many people run out of ideas long before they run out of words. Imagination is the pontoon bridge making way for the timid feet of reason. Practical observation commonly consists of collecting a few facts and loading them with guesses.

Why keep on enacting laws when we already have more than we can break. The best leader is the one who has the sense to surround himself with outstanding people and self-re... Advice is the only commodity on the market where the supply always exceeds the demand. Successful men follow the same advice they prescribe for others. You can judge your age by the amount of pain you feel when you come in contact with a new idea Old age may seem a long way off. But on the day it doesn't, it will be too late to do anything about... Age withers only the outside. Where ambition ends happiness begins. The best answer to answer to anger is silence. The size of a man is measured by the size of the thing that makes him angry. A lot of good arguments are spoiled by some fool who knows what he is talking about. People who know the least always argue the most. If you look for the positive things in life; you will find them. What we are doing at the moment is more that just one thing added to the rest; it is a memoir. Behavior is what a man does, not what he thinks, feels, or believes The human mind must believe in something, so why not let it believe what it does believe. He that boasts of his own knowledge proclaims his ignorance It is better to live richly than to die rich. On his examination paper a boy wrote, "A natural death is where you die by yourself without a doctor... Many things are worse than defeat,and compromise with evil is one of them.

A college education never hurt anybody who was willing to learn after he got it. Shortchange your education now and you may be short of change the rest of your life.

If it is untrue, disregard it; if unfair, keep from irritation; if it is ignor... It is usually best to be generous with praise, but cautious with criticism. There is one way to handle the ignorant and malicious critic. Ignore him. Courage is not the absence of fear, but the conquest of it. When you can think of yesterday without regret and tomorrow without fear, you are near contentment. Results are what you expect, and consequences are what you get. A conscience is like a baby. It has to go to sleep before you can. One should be more concerned about what his conscience whispers than about what other people shout. The bigger a man's head gets, the easier it is to fill his shoes. You know how you hate to be interrupted, so why are you always doing it to me. The biggest shortage of all is the shortage of common sense. A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning. No poet sings because he must sing. At least no great poet does. A great poet sings because he choos... Nine out of ten people who change their minds are wrong the second time too. Successful leaders have the courage to take action where others hesitate.

Early civilizations complained about still earlier ones, much as we do about both The shortest answer is the doing the thing. Education is not received. It is achieved.

Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence. Everybody's a self-made man; but only the successful ones are ever willing to admit it. The deadliest contagion is majority opinion. Procrastination is the grave in which opportunity is buried. Many people seem to think that opportunity means a chance to get money without earning it. Many of us have heard opportunity knocking at our door, but by the time we unhooked the chain, pushe... Few cases of eyestrain have been developed by looking on the bright side of things.

Peace won by the compromise of principles is a short-lived achievement. Peace may cost as much as war, but it is a better buy. If you get up one time more than you fall, you will make it through.

Prayer doesn't change things. It changes people and they change things. Prejudice is the reasoning of fools. Today is the tomorrow you worried about yesterday. The hardest work in the world is that which should have been done yesterday. An expert knows all the answers - if you ask the right questions. Beware of the man who knows the answer before he understands the question. If someone offers to furnish a sure test, ask what the test was which made the sure test sure. There is a growing suspicion that what the world needs now is a religion that will cover the other s... Religion is meant to be bread for daily use, not cake for special occasions. Freedom is a package deal - with it comes responsibilities and consequences. If the world were so organized that everything has to be fair, no living creature could survive for ... Someone has described science as an orderly arrangement of what, at the moment, seems to be facts. Before a diamond shows its brilliancy and prismatic colors it has to stand a good deal of cutting an... Think highly of yourself, for the world takes you at your own estimate. To save time is to lengthen life. Time invested in improving ourselves cuts down on time wasted in disapproving of others. Get into the habit of asking yourself if what you are doing can be handled by someone else. Most people pay too much for the things they get for nothing. The greatest paradox of them all is to speak of "civilized warfare." We always prefer war on our terms to peace on someone else's. A great fortune in the hands of a fool is a great misfortune. Some people lose their health getting wealth and then lose their wealth gaining health. If wisdom were on sale in the open market, the stupid would not even ask the price. The best mind might be the wisest mind if it were a mind alone that produces wisdom. You can buy education, but wisdom is a gift from God. Wise men are not always silent, but they know when to be. One thing you can give and still keep is your word. When thoughts fails of words, they find imagination waiting at their elbow to teach a new language w...
