“It is a good thing for an uneducated man to read books of quotations. Bartlett's Familiar Quotations is an admirable work, and I studied it intently. The quotations when engraved upon the memory give you good thoughts. They also make you anxious to read the authors and look for more.”
Never Give In! • Winston S Churchill“By means of beauty all beautiful things become beautiful. For this appears to me the safest answer to give both to myself and others; and adhering to this, I think that I shall never fall, but that it is a safe answer both for me and any one else to give — that by means of beauty beautiful things become beautiful.”
The Trials Of Socrates • Plato“Variant Translation: Let not thy mind run on what thou lackest as much as on what thou hast already.”
Book VII • Marcus Aurelius““A more effective way to spot a liar is to notice if he puts the palm of his hand on his chest — preferably his right hand over his heart — and sighs indignantly when he’s been accused of lying.””
Surrounded by Idiots • Thomas Erikson““I am for her an indispensable, integral part of her boudoir.””
The Duel • Anton Chekhov
