~ Marriage is the only adventure open to the cowardly ~ ~ Marriage is the only war in which you sleep with the enemy ~ ~ Great men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war ~ ~ Adversity draws men together and produces beauty and harmony in life's relationships, just as the cold of winter produces ice-flowers on the window-panes, which vanish with the warmth. ~ ~ When all is said and done, and statesmen discuss the future of the world, the fact remains that people fight these wars. ~ ~ The future can be anything we want it to be, providing we have the faith and that we realize that peace, no less than war, required 'blood and sweat and tears ~ ~ Desire and hope will push us on toward the future ~ ~ Each time you are honest and conduct yourself with honesty, a success force will drive you toward greater success. Each time you lie, even with a little white lie, there are strong forces pushing you toward failure. ~ ~ It is the mark of the cultured man that he is aware of the fact that equality is an ethical and not a biological principle ~ ~ A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death. ~ ~ Ethical religion can be real only to those who are engaged in ceaseless efforts at moral improvement. By moving upward we acquire faith in an upward movement, without limit. ~ ~ A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death. ~ ~ We have grasped the mystery of the atom and rejected the Sermon on the Mount. Ours is a world of nuclear giants and ethical infants. We know more about war than we know about peace, more about killing than we know about living. ~ ~ It is better to be the widow of a hero than the wife of a coward. ~ ~ It is the personal thoughtfulness, the warm human awareness, the reaching out of the self to one's fellow man that makes giving worthy of the Christmas spirit. ~ ~ Until one feels the spirit of Christmas, there is no Christmas. All else is outward display--so much tinsel and decorations. For it isn't the holly, it isn't the snow. It isn't the tree not the firelight's glow. It's the warmth that comes to the hearts of men when the Christmas spirit returns again. ~ ~ It is an unfortunate personal tragedy. However, when compared to the vast ocean of the collective tragedy faced by my people, my illness is merely a pebble. I am deeply sad that I am crippled by this illness, unable to contribute anything substantial towards the alleviation of the immense suffering and oppression of my people. ~ ~ The goal of war is peace, of business, leisure ~ ~ War is the business of barbarians ~ ~ When music and courtesy are better understood and appreciated, there will be no war ~ ~ Give me the children until they are seven and anyone may have them afterward. ~ ~ Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions ~ ~ Real generosity toward the future lies in giving all to the present. ~ ~ To give without any reward, or any notice, has a special quality of its own. ~ ~ Politics is almost as exciting as war, and quite as dangerous. In war you can only be killed once, but in politics many times. ~ ~ Politics are very much like war. We may even have to use poison gas at times. ~ ~ Americans play to win at all times. I wouldn't give a hoot and hell for a man who lost and laughed. That's why Americans have never lost nor ever lose a war. ~ ~ Men are at war with each other because each man is at war with himself. ~ ~ Obedience indeed is only the pitiful and cowardly egotism of him who thinks that he can do something better than reason. ~ ~ Obedience indeed is only the pitiful and cowardly egotism of him who thinks that he can do something better than reason. ~ |
