Results from Cole's Quotables:

When you betray somebody else, you also betray yourself.: Isaac Bashevis Singer (1904 - 1991), New York Times Magazine, Mar. 12, 1978
Art is contemplation. It is the pleasure of the mind which searches into nature and which there divines the spirit of which Nature herself is animated.: Auguste Rodin
If you would attain to what you are not yet, you must always be displeased by what you are. For where you are pleased with yourself there you have remained. Keep adding, keep walking, keep advancing.: Saint Augustine (354 AD - 430 AD)
As witnesses not of our intentions but of our conduct, we can be true or false, and the hypocrite's crime is that he bears false witness against himself. What makes it so plausible to assume that hypocrisy is the vice of vices is that integrity can indeed exist under the cover of all other vices except this one. Only crime and the criminal, it is true, confront us with the perplexity of radical evil; but only the hypocrite is really rotten to the core.: Hannah Arendt (1906 - 1975), On Revolution (1963)
There is a way in which the collective knowledge of mankind expresses itself, for the finite individual, through mere daily living... a way in which life itself is sheer knowing.: Laurens Van der Post, Venture to the Interior (1951)
Homesickness is. . . absolutely nothing. Fifty percent of the people in the world are homesick all the time. . . You don't really long for another country. You long for something in yourself that you don't have, or haven't been able to find.: John Cheever, The Stories of John Cheever (1978)
Be what you would seem to be -- or, if you'd like it put more simply -- Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.: Lewis Carroll (1832 - 1898), Alice in Wonderland
Age is opportunity no less than youth itself.: Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807 - 1882)
Blessed are they who have the gift of making friends, for it is one of God's best gifts. It involves many things, but above all, the power of going out of one's self, and appreciating whatever is noble and loving in another.: Thomas Hughes
The best way to cheer yourself is to try to cheer someone else up.: Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
