“This is a fine saying of Plato: That he who is discoursing about men should look also at earthly things as if he viewed them from some higher place; should look at them... a mixture of all things and an orderly combination of contraries.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius“Once a gentleman, and always a gentleman.”
Little Dorrit • Charles Dickens“ "Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."”
The Analects of Confucius • Confucius“A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“What good men most biologists are, the tenors of the scientific world — temperamental, moody, lecherous, loud-laughing, and healthy. Your true biologist will sing you a song as loud and off-key as will a blacksmith, for he knows that morals are too often diagnostic of prostatitis and stomach ulcers. Sometimes he may proliferate a little too much in all directions, but he is as easy to kill as any other organism, and meanwhile he is very good company, and at least he does not confuse a low hormone productivity with moral ethics.”
The Log from the sea of Cortez • John Steinbeck
