Results from Poor Man's College:

It is not the position, but the disposition.: J. E. Dinger
It seems to me probable that anyone who has a series of intolerable positions to put up with must have been responsible for them in some extent; not that it was simply "their fault" - I don't mean that- but that they have contributed to it by impatience, or intolerance, or brusqueness- or some provocation.: Robert Hugh Benson
It is meant that noble minds keep ever with their likes; for who so firm that cannot be seduced.: William Shakespeare (1564 - 1616)
It is not for man to rest in absolute contentment. He is born to hopes and aspirations as the sparks fly upward, unless he has brutified his nature and quenched the spirit of immortality which is his portion.: Robert Southey (1774 - 1843)
Question: Why are we Masters of our Fate, the captains of our souls? Because we have the power to control our thoughts, our attitudes. That is why many people live in the withering negative world. That is why many people live in the Positive Faith world. And you don't have to be a poet or a philosopher to know which is best.: Alfred A. Montapert
How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live.: Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862)
Paradoxically though it may seem, it is none the less true that life imitates art far more than art imitates life.: Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)
Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up.: Pablo Picasso (1881 - 1973)
To write simply is as difficult as to be good.: W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965)
Adults interfere with a natural biologic development of the child's motor, visual, mental, and artistic abilities when they try to influence the child's work in the early years. The adult's brain has accumulated much more visual and artistic memory than the child's, so there can be no true meeting of adult and child mind unless the adult knows how the child's mind functions in art.: Rhoda Kellog
