civilization luxury selfishness
A semi-civilized state of society, equally removed from the extremes of barbarity and of refinement, seems to be that particular meridian under which all the reciprocities and gratuities of hospitality do most readily flourish and abound. For it so happens that the ease, the luxury, and the abundance of the highest state of civilization, are as productive of selfishness, as the difficulties, the privations, and the sterilities of he lowest. Charles Caleb Colton

commitment giving acres
It is true that Mr. Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation, after which there was a commitment to give 40 acres and a mule. That's where the argument, to this day, of reparations starts. We never got the 40 acres. We went all the way to Herbert Hoover, and we never got the 40 acres. We didn't get the mule. So we decided we'd ride this donkey as far as it would take us. Al Sharpton

Regarding homophobia in general, the good news is that there is a lot less of it than there used to be.

People have always said that I could have been a highly successful pop artist, if only that were my intention. It never was.

Writers shouldn’t underestimate the difficulty of what they’re doing, and they should treat it with great seriousness.

Winning is overrated. The only time it is really important is in surgery and war. Al McGuire
leadership sports zero
I believe in a business boarding up early. If you make a mistake, you put the boards in the window of the store and say, "Hey, I made a mistake." Let me take two shots in the arm and a punch on the nose and let me get on to the next thing. I don't believe in worrying over failures. I worry about successes. This is opposite from most people. Most people zero in on their failures. I try to keep all my attention on a pyramid type philosophy rather than the averaging-down philosophy. Al McGuire

I would rather die than be in the United States Senate. I would be bored to death.

moving eye men
The upright, if he suffer calumny to move him, fears the tongue of man more than the eye of God. Charles Caleb Colton
moving hypocrite idols
Those who worship gold in a world so corrupt as this we live in have at least one thing to plead in defense of their idolatry--the power of their idol. It is true that, like other idols, it can neither move, see, hear, feel, nor understand; but, unlike other idols, it has often communicated all these powers to those who had them not, and annihilated them in those who had. This idol can boast of two peculiarities; it is worshipped in all climates, without a single temple, and by all classes, without a single hypocrite. Charles Caleb Colton
moving grace firsts
True belief and true repentance are twins: it would be idle to attempt to say which is born first. All the spokes of a wheel move at once when the wheel moves, and so all the graces commence action when regeneration is wrought by the Holy Ghost. Repentance, however, there must be. Charles Spurgeon
moving warrior ideas
The whole idea of emotions being something we can't escape as humans, but that deep suffering that comes from resisting them, we can move out of that just by not resisting anymore. But it takes a really brave warrior soul to sit there in these emotions that admittedly don't feel good in the body. Alanis Morissette
moving-on break-up breakup
What's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started, but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed, now I'm older. Thank God for growing up. Alanis Morissette
moving ready
Stay in the center, and you will be ready to move in any direction. Alan Watts
moving unique often-is
For every individual is a unique manifestation of the Whole, as every branch is a particular outreaching of the tree. To manifest individuality, every branch must have a sensitive connection with the tree, just as our independently moving and differentiated fingers must have a sensitive connection with the whole body. The point, which can hardly be repeated too often, is that differentiation is not separation. Alan Watts
moving airplane up-in-the-air
An automobile has about 10,000 moving parts, right? An airplane has two million, and it has to stay up in the air. Alan Mulally
moving writing play
I have every sympathy for writers. It's a mystery to me what they do. I can edit. I can cross out and say, 'I'm not saying that' or, 'How about we move this to here? Wouldn't that make that bit of the story better?' But where any of it comes from is beyond me. I will never write a play or a novel. Alan Rickman
opportunity deuces letters
Then idiots talk....of Energy. If there is a word in the dictionary under any letter from A to Z that I abominate, it is energy. It is such a conventional superstition, such parrot gabble! What the deuce!....But show me a good opportunity, show me something really worth being energetic about, and I'll show you energy. Charles Dickens
opportunity men often-is
Subtract from the great man all that he owes to opportunity, all that he owes to chance, and all that he gained by the wisdom of his friends and the folly of his enemies, and the giant will often be seen to be a pygmy. Charles Caleb Colton
opportunity female lovers
Fortune, like other females, prefers a lover to a master, and submits with impatience to control; but he that wooes her with opportunity and importunity will seldom court her in vain. Charles Caleb Colton
opportunity mind glory
The road to glory would cease to be arduous if it were trite and trodden; and great minds must be ready not only to take opportunities but to make them. Charles Caleb Colton
opportunity extremity
Our extremities are God's opportunities. Charles Spurgeon
opportunity honor denial
When facing the apparent denial of my request, God gave me the opportunity to honor him by trusting His Word. Charles Spurgeon
opportunity library today
I wouldn’t be the person I am today if it wasn’t for the opportunities the library gave me. Alan Moore
opportunity voice people
It does not do to rely too much on silent majorities, Evey, for silence is a fragile thing, one loud noise, and its gone. But the people are so cowed and disorganised. A few might take the opportunity to protest, but it'll just be a voice crying in the wilderness. Noise is relative to the silence preceding it. The more absolute the hush, the more shocking the thunderclap. Our masters have not heard the people's voice for generations, Evey and it is much, much louder than they care to remember. Alan Moore
opportunity giving people
I want to be able to open up the really good treasures of the Church and Christianity to people, and that's not going to be achieved by shouting at them to convert or they'll go to hell. It's about giving them an opportunity to reimagine Christianity. Alan Green

When pain brings you down, don't be silly, don't close your eyes and cry, you just might be in the best position to see the sun shine. Alanis Morissette

I don't like to read about myself, whether it be positive or negative. Chloe Sevigny
positive focus mind
The mind is easily distracted; it loses its focus and becomes restless. If it is not directed positively, its power will be diffused. Chin-Ning Chu
positive choices focus
A vision of a desired future allows you to engage and identify immediately in your focus with an improved condition. It changes what you perceive and how you perform NOW. It's not about achieving something in time. It's rather about the quality of choices you are making in this moment - what you choose to perceive, feel, and do. It's about getting the most out of your experience. David Allen
