Results from Rand Lindsly's Quotations:

Observance of customs and laws can very easily be a cloak for a lie so subtle that our fellow human beings are unable to detect it. It may help us to escape all criticism, we may even be able to deceive ourselves in the belief of our obvious righteousness. But deep down, below the surface of the average man's conscience, he hears a voice whispering, "There is something not right," no matter how much his rightness is supported by public opinion or by the moral code.: Carl G. Jung, in the introduction to Frances G. Wickes' "Analysis der Kinderseele" (The Inner World of Childhood), 1931
"Contrariwise," continued Tweedledee, "if it was so, it might be, and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic!": Charles Lutwidge Dodgson
No president in history has been more vilified or was more vilivied during the time he was President than Lincoln. Those who knew him, his secretaries, have written that he was deeply hurt by what was said about him and drawn about him, but on the other hand, Lincoln had the great strength of character never to display it, always able to stand tall and strong and firm no matter how harsh or unfair the criticism might be. These elements of greatness, of course, inspire us all today.: Richard Nixon
He hadn't a single redeeming vice.: Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900)
#1597. Everything is deemed possible except that which is impossible in the nature of things.: California Civil Code, "Object of a Contract"
I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That's deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas?: Jean Kerr
Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain.: Lily Tomlin and Jane Wagner
Perhaps I know best why it is man alone who laughs; he alone suffers so deeply that he had to invent laughter.: Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900)
A 'No' uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble.: Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)
We owe a deep debt of gratitude to Adam, the first great benefactor of the human race: he brought death into the world.: Mark Twain (1835 - 1910)
