The word 'good' has many meanings. For example, if a man were to shoot his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards, I should call him a good shot, but not necessarily a good man.
Quote by -Gilbert K Chesterton
There is a great deal of difference between an eager man who wants to read a book and the tired man who wants a book to read.
Quote by -Gilbert K Chesterton
“Beware of any motto that glorifies the past. It’s code for restoring hierarchy. For example: “Make America great again.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
It will never make any difference to a hero what the laws are. His greatness will shine and accomplish itself unto the end, whether they second him or not.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
If a human being dreams a great dream, dares to love somebody; if a human being dares to be Martin King, or Mahatma Gandhi, or Mother Theresa, or Malcolm X; if a human being dares to be bigger than the condition into which she or he was born-it means so can you. And so you can try to stretch, stretch, stretch yourself so you can internalize, 'Homo sum, humani nil a me alienum puto. I am a human being, nothing human can be alien to me.' That's one thing I'm learning.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
Great men, great nations, have not been boasters and buffoons, but perceivers of the terror of life, and have manned themselves to face it.
Quote by -Ralph Waldo Emerson
I'm not the greatest; I'm the double greatest. Not only do I knock 'em out, I pick the round.
Quote by -Muhammad Ali
I'm the greatest thing that ever lived! I'm the king of the world! I'm a bad man. I'm the prettiest thing that ever lived.
Quote by -Muhammad Ali
“We can have in life but one great experience at best, and the secret of life is to reproduce that experience as often as possible.”
Quote by -Oscar Wilde
Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired.
Quote by -Mother Teresa
If you can’t do great things, do little things with great love. If you can’t do them with great love, do them with a little love. If you can’t do them with a little love, do them anyway
Quote by -Mother Teresa
None of us, including me, ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful
Quote by -Mother Teresa
God has created us to love and to be loved, and this is the beginning of prayer-to know that He loves me, that I have been created for greater things
Quote by -Mother Teresa
“Well, your greatest joy definitely comes from doing something for another, especially when it was done with no thought of something in return.”
Quote by -John Wooden
“Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out.”
Quote by -John Wooden
“If you are afraid to fail, you will never do the things you are capable of doing.”
Quote by -John Wooden
Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.
Quote by -John Wooden
I am concerned for the security of our great Nation; not so much because of any treat from without, but because of the insidious forces working from within.
Quote by -Douglas MacArthur
If you want great mentors, you have to become a great mentee. If you want to lead, you have to first learn to follow.
Quote by -Tim Firris
The great “deloading” phase. This is what I’m experiencing this afternoon, and it makes a Tuesday feel like a lazy Sunday morning. This is when the muse is most likely to visit. I need to get back to the slack.
Quote by -Tim Firris
Great creative work isn’t possible if you’re trying to piece together 30 minutes here and 45 minutes there.
Quote by -Tim Firris
It’s lonely at the top. Ninety-nine percent of people in the world are convinced they are incapable of achieving great things, so they aim for the mediocre. The level of competition is thus fiercest for ‘realistic’ goals, paradoxically making them the most time and energy-consuming.
Quote by -Tim Firris
A great discovery does not issue from a scientists brain ready-made, like Minerva springing fully armed from Jupiter’s head; it is the fruit of an accumulation of preliminary work.
Quote by -Marie Curie
The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.
Quote by -Mahatama Gandhi
Britishness is just a way of putting things together and a certain don't care attitude about clothes. You don't care, you just do it and it looks great.
Quote by -Vivienne Westwood
My best artist friend is definitely Jason Aldean. He and I really get along great and are really great friends. It's fun to tour with a buddy and somebody that I just enjoy hanging out with. If we weren't touring together, we'd be hunting in the off-season still and knocking around doing stuff, certainly.
Quote by -Luke Bryan
"The two great movers of the human mind are the desire for good, and the fear of evil"
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"To proceed from one truth to another, and connect distant propositions by regular consequences, is the great prerogative of man"
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
"His scorn of the great is repeated too often to be real; no man thinks much of that which he despises."
Quote by -Samuel Johnson
The greatest derangement of the mind is to believe in something because one wishes it to be so.
Quote by -Louis Pasteur
Whether our efforts are, or not, favored by life, let us be able to say, when we come near to the great goal, I have done what I could.
Quote by -Louis Pasteur
