Text Quotes
A belief may be larger than a fact. A faith that is overdefined is the very faith most likely to prove inadequate to the great moments of life  (The Great Quotes) I believe that one of the great pleasures that we derive from voyaging is that of independence, and we have found that the best guarantee of that independence comes from simplicity  (The Great Quotes) For life is an expression, our unconscious actions the constant betrayal of our innermost thought. Perhaps we reveal ourselves too much in small things because we have so little of the great to conceal. The tiny incidents of daily rouitine are as much a commentary of racial ideas as the highest flight of philosophy or poetry  (The Great Quotes) I shall attempt to prove two things: first, that the actions and dispositions of mankind are the offspring of circumstances and events, and not of any original determination that they bring into the world; and, secondly, that the great stream of our voluntary actions essentially depends, not upon the direct and immediate impulses of sense, but upon the decisions of the understanding  (The Great Quotes) I think the greatest thing we give each other is encouragement... knowing that I’m talking to someone in this mentoring relationship who’s interested in the big idea here is very, very important to me. I think if it were just about helping me get to the next step, it would be a heck of a lot less interesting  (The Great Quotes) One of the great injustices in fiction is that on the whole people with romantic yearnings have romantic faces. But in real life it’s not always like that  (The Great Quotes) One of the great weaknesses of standard libertarian theory is that it tends to push too hard by elevating presumptions into absolutes  (The Great Quotes) The greater the amount of knowledge you accumulate, the bigger your island gets, but the greater the shoreline of the unknown becomes. In short, the more you know, the more you know you don’t know  (The Great Quotes) The greatest gift that you can give to others and to yourself is time. Embrace the gift of time whether you give it or receive it  (The Great Quotes) We still like to make up stories, just as our ancestors did, which use personification to explain the great forces of our existence. Such stories, which explain how the world began or where the sun goes when it sets, we call myths. Mythology is a natural product of the symbolizing mind; poets, when not making up myths of their own, are still commanding ancient ones  (The Great Quotes) Then again, what seems like nothing in the eyes of the world, when properly valued and put to use, can be among the greatest riches  (The Great Quotes) The greatest reward for a student is not a good grade. It is the willingness of his teacher to listen to him  (The Great Quotes) Often, the greatest challenge facing an organization is recognizing and acting on opportunity rather than solving a problem  (The Great Quotes) The great argument used now against any theological proposition is not, that it is untrue, or unthinkable, or unedifying, or unscriptural, or unorthodox, but simply, that the modern mind cannot accept it  (The Great Quotes) The example of parents is the greatest teacher. Parents must stand out as models of happiness to their children  (The Great Quotes) Football’s the biggest game in the world. America’s the greatest sporting nation there is. To play some part in putting those two things together: why wouldn’t I be excited about that?  (The Great Quotes) ... there is no absolute scale of size in nature, and the small may be as important, or more so than the great  (The Great Quotes) I claim that nothing else is so effective in encouraging the growth of chess strength as such independent analysis, both of the games of the great players and your own  (The Great Quotes) Graphical excellence is that which gives to the viewer the greatest number of ideas in the shortest time with the least ink in the smallest space  (The Great Quotes) Do one thing every day that scares you... Enjoy your body. Use it every way you can. Don’t be afraid of it or of what other people think of it. It’s the greatest instrument you’ll ever own... Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it’s worth  (The Great Quotes) The greatest rewards come when you give of yourself. It’s about bettering the lives of others, being part of something bigger than yourself, and making a positive difference  (The Great Quotes) I think this is the case in the great majority of authoritarian states: on the surface, because of repression, everything seems frozen, but when the sun comes out and the ice melts, you find that there was a lot of life underneath all along  (The Great Quotes) The greatest thing that I have learned is probably the simplest thing any of us can learn: I am who I am  (The Great Quotes) Why be an average person? All the great achievements of history have been made by strong individuals who refused to consult statistics or to listen to those who could prove convincingly that what they wanted to do, and in fact ultimately did do, was completely impossible  (The Great Quotes) Some of the greatest minds on earth also have a great capacity to remember. Many would prefer to forget their memories of mankind  (The Great Quotes) Fear of self is the greatest of all terrors, the deepest of all dread, the commonest of all mistakes. From it grows failure. Because of it, life is a mockery. Out of it comes despair  (The Great Quotes) Without doing injustice to the living, it may safely be asserted that our loss is irreparable; and that among the shining hosts of the great and good who now cluster around the banner of the country, there exists no purer spirit, no more heroic soul, than that of the illustrious man whose death I join you in lamenting  (The Great Quotes) Of the infinite variety of fruits which spring from the bosom of the earth, the trees of the wood are the greatest in dignity  (The Great Quotes) Humor implies a sure conception of the beautiful, the majestic and he true, by whose light it surveys and shape s their opposites. It is a humane influence, softening with mirth the ragged inequities of existence, prompting tolerant views of life, bridging over the space which separates the lofty from the lowly, the great from the humble  (The Great Quotes) It is better to go down on the great seas which human hearts were made to sail than to rot at the wharves in ignoble anchorage  (The Great Quotes)
