Results from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations:

If you look at life one way, there is always cause for alarm.
[info][add][mail][note]
Elizabeth Bowen (1899 - 1973)
When the conduct of men is designed to be influenced, persuasion, kind unassuming persuasion, should ever be adopted. It is an old and true maxim that 'a drop of honey catches more flies than a gallon of gall.' So with men. If you would win a man to your cause, first convince him that you are his sincere friend. Therein is a drop of honey that catches his heart, which, say what he will, is the great highroad to his reason, and which, once gained, you will find but little trouble in convincing him of the justice of your cause, if indeed that cause is really a good one.

Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865)

Get pleasure out of life...as much as you can. Nobody ever died from pleasure.

We may lay in a stock of pleasures, as we would lay in a stock of wine; but if we defer tasting them too long, we shall find that both are soured by age.

Charles Caleb Colton (1780 - 1832)
Choose your pleasures for yourself, and do not let them be imposed upon you.
