Motivational Quotes of the Day

[Today's Quotes] [Archive Index]

Selected from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations - October 25, 2025

You should not live one way in private, another in public.: Publilius Syrus (~100 BC)
In battling evil, excess is good; for he who is moderate in announcing the truth is presenting half-truth. He conceals the other half out of fear of the people's wrath.: Kahlil Gibran (1883 - 1931), 'Narcotics and Dissecting Knives,' Thoughts and Meditations, 1960
Nothing happens to any thing which that thing is not made by nature to bear.: Marcus Aurelius Antoninus (121 AD - 180 AD), Meditations
all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon - instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.: Dale Carnegie
