Count Quotes

A man who, beyond the age of 26, finds himself on a bus can count himself as a failure Picture Quote #1

The more we count the blessings we have, the less we crave the luxuries we haven’t Picture Quote #1

Our life is frittered away by detail. An honest man has hardly need to count more than his ten fingers, or in extreme cases he may add his ten toes, and lump the rest. Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity! Picture Quote #1

One way to measure your own fears is to count the number of personal questions you’ve allowed others to answer for you Picture Quote #1

What we count the ills of life are often blessings in disguise, resulting in good to us in the end. Though for the present not joyous but grievous, yet, if received in a right spirit, they work out fruits of righteousness for us at last Picture Quote #1

Ideas are the only things that count, and politicians are, for the most part, pretty much irrelevant Picture Quote #1

Don’t spend most of your time on the voices that don’t count. Tune out the shallow voices so that you will have more time to tune in the valuable ones Picture Quote #1

If you can’t count, they can cheat you. If you can’t read, they can beat you Picture Quote #1

You can always chase a dream but it will not count if you never catch it Picture Quote #1

A zero itself is nothing, but without a zero you cannot count anything; therefore, a zero is something, yet zero Picture Quote #1

By my count, more business leaders have failed and derailed because of arrogance than any other character flaw Picture Quote #1

Don’t wait for, expect, or rely on favors. Count on earning them by hard work and perseverance Picture Quote #1

For I could not read or speak and on the long nights I could not turn the moon off or count the lights of cars across the ceiling Picture Quote #1

If you have not learned to be a passionate lover, do not count your life as lived. On the day of reckoning, it will not be counted Picture Quote #1

I’m not an American, Do they count the votes in America? I haven’t voted in Jamaica either Picture Quote #1

I count myself lucky, having long ago won a lottery paid to me in seven sunrises a week for life Picture Quote #1

I count myself one of the number of those who write as they learn and learn as they write Picture Quote #1

Everybody nose dive, hold your breath, count to five. Back slap, booby trap, cover it up in bubble wrap. Room shake, earth quake, find a way to stay awake. It’s going to blow, it’s going to break, this is more than I can take Picture Quote #1

I used to be a classic workaholic, and after seeing how little work and career really mean when you reach the end of your life, I put a new emphasis on things I believe count more. These things include: family, friends, being part of a community, and appreciating the little joys of the average day Picture Quote #1

Destiny is an absolutely definite and inexorable ruler. Physical ability and moral determination count for nothing. It is impossible to perform the simplest act when the gods say no. I have no idea how they bring pressure to bear on such occasions; I only know that it is irresistible Picture Quote #1

I count too heavily on birthdays, though I know I shouldn’t. Inevitably I begin to assess my life by them, figure out how I’m doing by how many people remember; it’s like the old fantasy of attending your own funeral: You get to see who your friends are, get to see who shows up Picture Quote #1

What is the point of worrying oneself too much about what one could or could not have done to control the course one’s life took? Surely it is enough that the likes of you and I at least try to make our small contribution count for something true and worthy. And if some of us are prepared to sacrifice much in life in order to pursue such aspirations, surely that in itself, whatever the outcome, cause for pride and contentment Picture Quote #1

I had to stop hoping so much that a ship would rescue me. I should not count on outside help. Survival had to start with me. In my experience, a castaway’s worst mistake is to hope too much and to do too little. Survival starts by paying attention to what is close at hand and immediate. To look out with idle hope is tantamount to dreaming one’s life away Picture Quote #1

He poured the tumbler full. Drink up, he said. The world goes on. We have dancing nightly and this night is no exception. The straight and the winding way are one and now that you are here what do the years count since last we two met together? Men’s memories are uncertain and the past that was differs little from the past that was not Picture Quote #1

I know we’re not saints or virgins or lunatics; we know all the lust and lavatory jokes, and most of the dirty people; we can catch buses and count our change and cross the roads and talk real sentences. But our innocence goes awfully deep, and our discreditable secret is that we don’t know anything at all, and our horrid inner secret is that we don’t care that we don’t Picture Quote #1

Each of us has... all the time there is. Those years, weeks, hours, are the sands in the glass running swiftly away. To let them drift through our fingers is tragic waste. To use them to the hilt, making them count for something, is the beginning of wisdom Picture Quote #1

Leibniz is at the disadvantage of not having seen it. Or perhaps we should count this as an advantage, for anyone who sees it is dumbfounded by the brilliance of the geometry, and it is difficult to criticize a man’s work when you are down on your knees shielding your eyes Picture Quote #1

They can print statistics and count the populations in hundreds of thousands, but to each man a city consists of no more than a few streets, a few houses, a few people. Remove those few and a city exists no longer except as a pain in the memory, like a pain of an amputated leg no longer there Picture Quote #1

He knew he should have counted. It was the rule to count to ten in his head before he opened his mouth. It was the rule to count to ten if he wanted to smash a man in the face for saying something he didn’t like. It was the rule to count to ten if instinct wasn’t needed, but common sense was Picture Quote #1

I’m going to be happy. I’m going to skip. I’m going to be glad. I’m going to be easy. I’m going to count my blessings. I’m going to look for reasons to feel good. I’m going to dig up positive things from the past. I’m going to look for positive things where I stand. I’m going to look for positive things in the future. It is my natural state to be a happy person. It’s natural for me to love and to laugh. This is what is most natural for me. I am a happy person Picture Quote #1
