Results from Poor Man's College:

It is not necessary for all men to be great in action. The greatest and sublimest power is simple patience.

Horace Bushnell
The failure of the mind in old age is often less the results of natural decay, than of disuse. Ambition has ceased to operate; contentment bring indolence, and indolence decay of mental power, ennui, and sometimes death. Men have been known to die, literally speaking, of disease induced by intellectual vacancy.

Sir B. Brodie

At the innermost core of all loneliness is a deep and powerful yearning for union with one's lost self.

Brendan Francis
Laughter, while it lasts, slackens and unbraces the mind, weakens the faculties and causes a kind of remissness and dissolution in all the powers of the soul; and thus it may be looked on as weakness in the composition of human nature. But if we consider the frequent reliefs we receive from it and how often it breaks the gloom which is apt to depress the mind and damp our spirits, with transient, unexpected gleams of joy, one would take care not to grow too wise for so great a pleasure of life.

Joseph Addison (1672 - 1719)
There is nothing in the world more powerful than an idea. No weapon can destroy it; no power can conquer it except the power of another idea.

James Roy Smith
Men who accomplish great things in the industrial world are the ones who have faith in the money producing power of ideas.

Charles Fillmore
The man of power is ruined by power, the man of money by money, the submissive man by subservience, the pleasure seeker by pleasure.

Hermann Hesse (1877 - 1962)
Hope is the companion of power, and mother of success; for who so hopes strongly has within him the gift of miracles.

Samuel Smiles
When we hate our enemies, we are giving them power over us: power over our sleep, our appetites, our blood pressure, our health, and our happiness. Our enemies would dance with joy if only they knew how they were worrying us, lacerating us, and getting even with us! Our hate is not hurting them at all, but our hate is turning our own days and nights into a hellish turmoil.
