that we must put up with a good deal of rubbish.
~ Robert Jackson

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.

Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.
~ H. G. Wells

Charitable, Deeds, Work

Be charitable before wealth makes thee covetous.
~ Sir Thomas Browne

Our deeds determine us, as much as we determine our deeds.
~ Marian Evans

In order that people may be happy in their work, these three things
are needed: They must be fit for it. They must not do too much of it.
And they must have a sense of success in it.
~ John Ruskin

Silence, Inspiration, Victories

He had occasional flashes of silence, that made his conversation
perfectly delightful.
~ Sydney Smith

You have to find a way of working that makes it dead easy to take full
advantage of your inspired moments. They never hit at a convenient
time, nor do they last long.
~ Hugh Macleod

Be careful that victories do not carry the seed of future defeats.

Parenting, Control, Influence

Always be nice to your children because they are the ones who will
choose your rest home.
~ Phyllis Diller

Because you are in control of your life. Don't ever forget that. You
are what you are because of the conscious and subconscious choices you
have made.
~ Barbara Hall

Let no man imagine that he has no influence. Whoever he may be, and
wherever he may be placed, the man who thinks becomes a light and a
power.
~ Henry George
