Thoughtful Quotes - 3 A man must have a certain amount of intelligent ignorance
to get anywhere. People who jump on conclusions, often frighten
the best ones away. To fall is neither dangerous nor
disgraceful, but to remain prostrate is both. People who do not believe in miracles are not
realists. Man's inhumanity to man makes countless
thousands mourn. If all hearts were open, and all desires known -
as they would be; if people showed their souls - how many gapping, sighs, clenched fists, knotted brows, broad grins and red eyes would we
see in the market place. Success is what gives us the confidence to
put into practice what failure has taught us. If you don't like something, change it. If you
can't change it, change your attitude. It is your attitude and not your aptitude that determines your
altitude. The silliest woman can manage a clever man, but it needs a very clever
woman to manage a fool. It is hard to believe that a man is telling the truth when you know
that you would lie if you were in his place. The lights of stars that were extinguished ages ago still reach us. So
it is with great men who died centuries ago, but still reach us with the
radiation of their personalities. Trust your husband, adore your husband, and get as much as you can in
your own name. The zoo is a prison for animals who have been sentenced without trial
and I feel guilty because I do nothing about it.
A wise man gets more use of his enemies, than a fool from is friends. Blood is not only thicker than water, it boils faster. A bit of fragrance always clings to the hand that gives the rose. Every creature is better alive than dead, men and moose and pine trees,
and he who understands it aright will rather preserve its life than
destroy it. "The quality of an individual is reflected in the standards they set
for themselves."
