[Today's Quotes] [Archive Index]

Selected from Laura Moncur's Motivational Quotations - December 15, 2024

Anger makes dull men witty, but it keeps them poor.: Elizabeth I (1533 - 1603), in Francis Bacon, Apophthegms, 1625
You better live your best and act your best and think your best today, for today is the sure preparation for tomorrow and all the other tomorrows that follow.: Harriet Martineau (1802 - 1876)
Do not be awe struck by other people and try to copy them. Nobody can be you as efficiently as you can.: Norman Vincent Peale (1898 - 1993)
Pleasure is an important component of the quality of life, but by itself it does not bring happiness. Pleasure helps to maintain order, but by itself cannot create a new order in consciousness.: Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, 1990
