A collection of twelve quotable quotes from the famous and the obscure.


    Twelve quotes to inspire or to quickly forget...

 

  •     The imagination exercises a powerful influence over every act of sense, thought, reason—over every idea. –Latin Proverb
  •   Don’t accept that others know you better than yourself. Work joyfully and peacefully, knowing that right thoughts and efforts will inevitably bring about right results. –James Allen
  •  People travel to wonder at the height of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass themselves without wondering. –St. Augustine
  •    Look at a day when you are supremely satisfied at the end. It’s not a day when you lounge around doing nothing; it’s when you’ve had everything to do, and you’ve done it.-Margaret Thatcher
  •       Happy are those who dream dreams and are ready to pay the price to make them come true .-Leon J. Suenes
  •       The man of wisdom is never of two minds; the man of benevolence never worries; the man of courage is never afraid. –Confucius
  •      In the universe, there are things that are known, and things that are unknown, and in between, there are doors.-William Blake
  •    What gems of painting or statuary are in the world of art, or what flowers are in the world of nature, are gems of thought to the cultivated and the thinking. –Oliver Wendell Holmes
  • Take advantage of every opportunity to practice your communication skills so that when important occasions arise, you will have the gift, the style, the sharpness, the clarity, and the emotions to affect other people. –Jim Rohn
  •    Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude. Thomas Jefferson.
  •    One who understands much displays a greater simplicity of character than the one who understands little.-Alexander Chase
  •   The best teacher is the one who suggests rather than dogmatizes, and inspired his listener with the wish to teach himself.- Edward Bulwer-Lytton
