Results from Poor Man's College:

A good book is the precious life-blood of the master spirit, embalmed and treasured up on purpose for a life beyond.: John Milton (1608 - 1674)
In a real sense, people who have read good literature have lived more than people who cannot or will not read. It is not true that we have only one life to live; if we can read, we can live as many more lives and as many kinds of lives as we wish.: S. I. Hayakawa
A book may be compared to your neighbor; if it be good, it cannot last too long; if bad, you cannot get rid of it too early.: Rupert Brooke
That is a good book which is opened with expectation, and closed with delight and profit.: Amos Bronson Alcott (1799 - 1888)
He does not live in vain, who employs his wealth, his thought, his speech to advance the good of others.: Hindoo Maxim
We often do good in order that we may do evil with impunity.: Francois De La Rochefoucauld (1613 - 1680)
When I was a small boy I was always being told by others, especially grown ups, to behave, to be good. It never occurred to me that I was always behaving in some manner. But I didn't have the awareness or skill to ask those grown ups what they meant when they told me to behave and to be good. Now I realize that all they wanted was for me to conform to their idea of what was good and not to do what they called bad behavior, which they sometimes changed at will. Even today people are still telling me how I should behave, but now I ask what they mean and sometimes it drives them up a wall.: Sidney Madwed
Our subconscious minds have no sense of humor, play no jokes and cannot tell the difference between reality and an imagined thought or image. What we continually think about eventually will manifest in our lives. Unfortunately most of us are completely unaware of this fact and we do not monitor our thoughts with the care needed so that we can create in our lives the results we say we want. Since the great majority of people do not feel worthy and deserving of abundant good fortune, radiant good health and total success in all areas of their lives that overriding thought pattern controls the results people get. The first order of business of anyone who wants to enjoy success in all areas of his her life is to take charge of the internal dialogue they have and only think, say and behavior in a manner consistent with the results they truly desire.: Sidney Madwed
Liberty is the proper end and object of authority, and cannot subsist without it; and it is liberty to that which is good, just, and honest.: John Winthrop
Each experience through which we pass operates ultimately for our good. This is a correct attitude to adopt and we must be able to see it in that light.: Raymond Holliwell
