Remember that you will only find tomorrow on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, If I had my life to live over again. Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/23748/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/23748/ <![CDATA[If someone were to pay you $.10 for every kind word you ever spoke and collect $.05 for every unkind word, would you be rich or poor?]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/21982/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/21982/ <![CDATA[The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/42085/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/42085/ <![CDATA[False friends are worse than bitter enemies.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/12401/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/12401/ <![CDATA[If I had to choose between betraying my country and betraying my friend, I hope I should have the guts to betray my country.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/4232/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/4232/ <![CDATA[Do not have evil-doers for friends, do not have low people for friends: have virtuous people for friends, have for friends the best of men.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/16035/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/16035/ <![CDATA[This above all: to thine own self be true, And it must follow, as the night the day, Thou canst not then be false to any man.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/35797/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/35797/ <![CDATA[Books, like friends, should be few and well chosen.

After giving birth, it falls into madness. Stretches out its hand through the window toward the first person happening by. The demon's claw rips, the iron fist grips. Before, you were a model, mocks the ironic voice between serrated teeth, for me, you are raw material to work on. I throw you against the glass wall, so that you remain stuck there, projected and stuck. (Then come the lovers of art and contemplate the bleeding work from outside. Then come the photographers. New art, it says in the newspaper the following day. The learned journals give it a name that ends in ism.)]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/16758/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/16758/ <![CDATA[When things are bad, we take comfort in the thought that they could always get worse.

It is piteous to see the helplessness of some sweet women when their affections are disappointed -- because all their teaching has been, that they can only delight in study of any kind for the sake of a personal love. They have never contemplated an independent delight in ideas as an experience which they could confess without being laughed at. Yet surely women need this defense against passionate affliction even more than men.]]> http://quotationsbook.com/quote/41860/ http://quotationsbook.com/quote/41860/ <![CDATA[America is not so much a nightmare as a non-dream.
