Borrowed thoughts, like borrowed money, only show the poverty of the borrower.
Lady Marguerite Blessington
They [my thoughts] are like persons met upon a journey; I think them very agreeable at first but soon find, as a rule, that I am tired of them.
Samuel Butler
Education is the strongest weapon available for restricting the questions people ask, controlling what they think, and ensuring that they get their thoughts from above.
John Carroll
We live in deeds, not years: In thoughts not breaths; In feelings, not in figures on a dial. We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives Who thinks most, feels the noblest, acts the best.
Philip James Bailey
Our life always expresses the result of our dominant thoughts.
Soren Kierkegaard
Nurture your mind with great thoughts, for you will never go any higher than you think.
Benjamin Disraeli
The worst bullies you will ever encounter in your life are your own thoughts.
Bryant McGill
The worst men often give the best advice; our thoughts are better sometimes than our deeds.
F. Lee Bailey
A seed is small in size. But it carries in its womb leaves, flowers, fruits, nay even the whole tree. The human brain is very much like a seed. It may not have a great shape and size. But it traps within itself endless possibilities. It is a fountainhead of thoughts and promises that can be fulfilled.
Amitabh Bachchan
Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals; cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow all delightful conditions, all, heavenly environment; of these, if you but remain true to them, your world will at last be built.
James Allen
Kind hearts are the gardens, Kind thoughts are the roots, Kind words are the flowers, Kind deeds are the fruits, Take care of your garden And keep out the weeds, Fill it with sunshine Kind words and kind deeds.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
There is a strange charm in the thoughts of a good legacy, or the hopes of an estate, which wondrously removes or at least alleviates the sorrow that men would otherwise feel for the death of friends.
Miguel de Cervantes
A man's real life is that accorded to him in the thoughts of other men by reason of respect or natural love.
Joseph Conrad
If you really think about it, everything is wonderful in this world, everything except for our thoughts and deeds when we forget about the loftier goals of existence, about our human dignity.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
Only during hard times do people come to understand how difficult it is to be master of their feelings and thoughts.
Anton Pavlovich Chekhov
