Results from Cole's Quotables:

Procrastination is the thief of time.: Edward Young (1683 - 1765)
Children are the hands by which we take hold of heaven.: Henry Ward Beecher (1813 - 1887)
A child's hand in yours -- what tenderness and power it arouses. You are instantly the very touchstone of wisdom and strength.: Marjorie Holmes
The dread of evil is a much more forcible principle of human actions than the prospect of good.: John Locke (1632 - 1704)
We must learn not to disassociate the airy flower from the earthy root, for the flower that is cut off from its root fades, and its seeds are barren, whereas the root, secure in mother earth, can produce flower after flower and bring their fruit to maturity.: Kabbalah
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of intelligent effort.: John Ruskin (1819 - 1900)
The very essence of literature is the war between emotion and intellect, between life and death. When literature becomes too intellectual -- when it begins to ignore the passions, the motions -- it becomes sterile, silly, and actually without substance.: Isaac Bashevis Singer (1904 - 1991), New York Times Magazine, Nov. 26, 1978

The greatness comes not when things go always good for you. But the greatness comes when you're really tested, when you take some knocks, some disappointments, when sadness comes. Because only if you've been in the deepest valley can you ever know how magnificent it is to be on the highest mountain.: Richard M. Nixon (1913 - 1994)
Remember, always give your best. Never get discouraged. Never be petty. Always remember, others may hate you. But those who hate you don't win unless you hate them. And then you destroy yourself.: Richard M. Nixon (1913 - 1994)
