Results from Cole's Quotables:

Eternity has nothing to do with the hereafter... This is it... If you don't get it here, you won't get it anywhere. The experience of eternity right here and now is the function of life. Heaven is not the place to have the experience; here's the place to have the experience.: Joseph Campbell (1904 - 1987)
No one has a finer command of language than the person who keeps his mouth shut.: Sam Rayburn (1882 - 1961), Lawrence Daily Journal-World
The most effective kind of education is that a child should play amongst lovely things.: Plato (427 BC - 347 BC)
The world always makes the assumption that the exposure of an error is identical with the discovery of truth--that the error and truth are simply opposite. They are nothing of the sort. What the world turns to, when it is cured on one error, is usually simply another error, and maybe one worse than the first one.: H. L. Mencken (1880 - 1956)
Chastity is a monkish and evangelical superstition, a greater foe to natural temperance even than unintellectual sensuality; it strikes at the root of all domestic happiness, and consigns more than half of the human race to misery.: Shelley
All exact science is dominated by the idea of approximation.: Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970)
Honorable retreats are no ways inferior to brave charges, as having less fortune, more of discipline, and as much valor.: Major General Sir William Napier, Peninsular War [1810]
Wisdom alone is true ambition's aim Wisdom the source of virtue, and of fame, Obtained with labor, for mankind employed, And then, when most you share it, best enjoyed.: Alfred North Whitehead (1861 - 1947)
Creative thinking should be viewed as an essential supplement to, though not a replacement for, critical thinking.: Lloyd P. Provost & R. M. Sprout, Quality Progress [August 1996]
When one door closes another door opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door, that we do not see the ones which open for us.: Alexander Graham Bell (1847 - 1922)
