Liebling I can't tell you if genius is hereditary, because heaven has granted me no offspring.***James Whistler I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.***Friedrich Nietzsche I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation and is but a reflection of human frailty.***Albert Einstein I cannot live under pressures from patrons, let alone paint.***Michelangelo I cannot think of any need in childhood as strong as the need for a father's protection.***Sigmund Freud I choose a block of marble and chop off whatever I don't need.***FrancoisAuguste Rodin - when asked how he managed to make his remarkable statues I consider myself a poet first and a musician second. I live like a poet and I'll die like a poet.***Bob Dylan I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.***Sir Stephen Henry Roberts I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies; for the hardest victory is over self.***Aristotle I criticize by creation, not by finding fault.***Cicero I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.***Socrates I define nothing. Not beauty, not patriotism. I take each thing as it is, without prior rules about what it should be.***Bob Dylan I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it.***Mark Twain I do not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.***Voltaire I do not believe in a fate that falls on men however they act; but I do believe in a fate that falls on them unless they act.***Buddha I do not believe in immortality of the individual, and I consider ethics to be an exclusively human concern with no superhuman authority behind it.***Albert Einstein I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil.***Albert Einstein I do not believe that civilization will be wiped out in a war fought with the atomic bomb. Perhaps two-thirds of the people of the earth will be killed.***Albert Einstein I do not believe that the men who served in uniform in Vietnam have been given the credit they deserve.

I find.***Pablo Picasso I do not think there is any thrill that can go through the human heart like that felt by the inventor as he sees some creation of the brain unfolding to success... such emotions make a man forget food, sleep, friends, love, everything.***Nikola Tesla I don’t mind what Congress does, as long as they don’t do it in the streets and frighten the horses.***Victor Hugo I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.***Pablo Picasso I don't believe in killing whatever the reason!***John Lennon I don't care much about music. What I like is sounds.***Dizzy Gillespie I don't do drugs. I am drugs.***Salvador Dali I don't even like old cars. I'd rather have a goddam horse. A horse is at least human, for God's sake.***J. D.

Salinger I don't give a damn for a man that can only spell a word one way.***Mark Twain I don't have nothing to regret at all in the past, except that I might've unintentionally hurt somebody else or something.***Jimi Hendrix I don't know anything about music.

What is the beautiful? One must speak of problems in painting!***Pablo Picasso I have an existential map; it has 'you are here' written all over it.***Steven Wright I have become my own version of an optimist. If I can't make it through one door, I'll go through another door - or I'll make a door. Something terrific will come no matter how dark the present.***Rabindranath Tagore I have been complimented many times and they always embarrass me; I always feel that they have not said enough.***Mark Twain I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.***Umberto Eco I have Dalinian thought: the one thing the world will never have enough of is the outrageous.***Salvador Dali I have dined with kings, I've been offered wings. And I've never been too impressed.***Bob Dylan I have found little that is "good" about human beings on the whole. In my experience most of them are trash, no matter whether they publicly subscribe to this or that ethical doctrine or to none at all. That is something that you cannot say aloud, or perhaps even think.***Sigmund Freud I have frequently been questioned, especially by women, of how I could reconcile family life with a scientific career. Well, it has not been easy.***Marie Curie I have gained this from philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law.***Aristotle I have great faith in fools; self-confidence my friends call it.***Edgar Allan Poe I have hardly ever known a mathematician who was capable of reasoning.***Plato I have just got a new theory of eternity.***Albert Einstein I have just three things to teach: simplicity, patience, compassion.

Debs I have no dress except the one I wear every day. If you are going to be kind enough to give me one, please let it be practical and dark so that I can put it on afterwards to go to the laboratory.***Marie Curie I have no faith in human perfectability.

I like to move around.***Jimi Hendrix I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart.***Anne Frank I know many books which have bored their readers, but I know of none which has done real evil.***Voltaire I know my country has not perfected itself.

I love America, I gotta say that. But America will be judged.***Bob Dylan I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells.

R. Ambedkar I live and love in God's peculiar light.***Michelangelo I live in a crazy time.***Anne Frank I live in sin, to kill myself I live; no longer my life my own, but sin's; my good is given to me by heaven, my evil by myself, by my free will, of which I am deprived.***Michelangelo I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.***Albert Einstein I love all men who think, even those who think otherwise than myself.***Victor Hugo I love America more than any other country in this world, and, exactly for this reason, I insist on the right to criticize her perpetually.***James A. Baldwin I love those who do not know how to live for today.***Friedrich Nietzsche I make it a rule never to smoke while I'm sleeping.***Mark Twain I may neither choose who I would, nor refuse who I dislike; so is the will of a living daughter curbed by the will of a dead father.***William Shakespeare I measure the progress of a community by the degree of progress which women have achieved.***B. R. Ambedkar I met in the street a very poor young man who was in love. His hat was old, his coat worn, his cloak was out at the elbows, the water passed through his shoes, - and the stars through his soul.***Victor Hugo I must have a prodigious quantity of mind; it takes me as much as a week sometimes to make it up.***Mark Twain I must study politics and war that my sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.***John Adams I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out.***Anne Frank I never did anything worth doing by accident, nor did any of my inventions come by accident; they came by work.***Plato I never did very well in math - I could never seem to persuade the teacher that I hadn't meant my answers literally.***Calvin Trillin I never let schooling interfere with my education.***Mark Twain I never see thy face but I think upon hell-fire.***William Shakespeare I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done.***Buddha I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.***Albert Einstein I never think of the future.

I think... peace and tranquillity will return again.***Anne Frank I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.***Rabindranath Tagore I soothe my conscience now with the thought that it is better for hard words to be on paper than that Mummy should carry them in her heart.***Anne Frank I still live, I still think: I still have to live, for I still have to think.***Friedrich Nietzsche I think a poet is anybody who wouldn't call himself a poet.***Bob Dylan I think and think for months and years. Ninety-nine times, the conclusion is false. The hundredth time I am right.***Albert Einstein I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.***Stephen Hawking I think it would be a good idea.***Mahatma Gandhi I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom.***Bob Dylan I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the Scriptures, but with experiments, and demonstrations.***Galileo Galilei I think that people want peace so much that one of these days government had better get out of their way and let them have it.***Dwight D. Eisenhower I think there is a world market for maybe five computers.***Thomas Watson I think we're going to the moon because it's in the nature of the human being to face challenges. It's by the nature of his deep inner soul... we're required to do these things just as salmon swim upstream.***Neil Armstrong I took a speed reading course and read ‘War and Peace’ in twenty minutes. It involves Russia.***Woody Allen I try to use my music to move these people to act.***Jimi Hendrix I used to go away for weeks in a state of confusion.***Albert Einstein I used to live in a room full of mirrors; all I could see was me. I take my spirit and I crash my mirrors, now the whole world is here for me to see.***Jimi Hendrix I want for myself what I want for other women, absolute equality.***Agnes Macphail I want to be very close to someone I respect and admire and have somebody who feels the same way about me.***Richard Bach I want to know all Gods thoughts; all the rest are just details.***Albert Einstein I want to know God's thoughts; the rest are details.***Albert Einstein (1879-1955) I was about half in love with her by the time we sat down.

Salinger I was adored once too.***William Shakespeare I was born not knowing and have had only a little time to change that here and there.***Richard P.

I really thought I'd be seeing Elvis soon.***Bob Dylan I'm not a member of any organized political party, I'm a Democrat!***Will Rogers I'm not going to change the way I look or the way I feel to conform to anything.

I'm one of those people.***John Lennon I'm not in this world to live up to your expectations and you're not in this world to live up to mine.***Bruce Lee I'm not offended by all the dumb blonde jokes because I know I'm not dumb...and I also know that I'm not blonde.***Dolly Parton I'm pretty tenacious when it comes to problems.***Roger Penrose I'm quite illiterate, but I read a lot.***J.

Songs can't save the world. I've gone through all that.***Bob Dylan I've said that playing the blues is like having to be black twice.

First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.***Rumi This is one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.***Neil Armstrong This is the hardest of all: to close the open hand out of love, and keep modest as a giver.***Friedrich Nietzsche This is the reason why mothers are more devoted to their children than fathers: it is that they suffer more in giving them birth and are more certain that they are their own.***Aristotle This is what is hardest: to close the open hand because one loves.***Friedrich Nietzsche This isn't right, this isn't even wrong.***Wolfgang Pauli This land is your land and this land is my land, sure, but the world is run by those that never listen to music anyway.***Bob Dylan This self-love is the instrument of our preservation; it resembles the provision for the perpetuity of mankind: it is necessary, it is dear to us, it gives us pleasure, and we must conceal it.***Voltaire Those that know, do.

Unity itself and the idea of Unity are already two.***Buddha Unless we place our religion and our treasure in the same thing, religion will always be sacrificed.***Epictetus Unless you enter the tiger's den you cannot take the cubs.***Japanese Proverb Unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, man does not lose his being in the society in which he lives.

Art is a lie that makes us realize the truth, at least the truth that is given to us to understand.***Pablo Picasso We all live with the objective of being happy; our lives are all different and yet the same.***Anne Frank We always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love - first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.***Albert Camus We Americans... bear the ark of liberties of the world.***Mark Twain We are all agreed that your theory is crazy. The question which divides us is whether it is crazy enough to have a chance of being correct.

Some of us just go one god further.***Richard Dawkins We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies - it is the first law of nature.***Voltaire We are all hungry and thirsty for concrete images. Abstract art will have been good for one thing: to restore its exact virginity to figurative art.***Salvador Dali We are all special cases.***Albert Camus We are at the very beginning of time for the human race. It is not unreasonable that we grapple with problems. But there are tens of thousands of years in the future. Our responsibility is to do what we can, learn what we can, improve the solutions, and pass them on.***Richard P. Feynman We are born at a given moment, in a given place and, like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and of the season of which we are born.

When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves.***Buddha We are so vain that we even care for the opinion of those we don't care for.***Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach We are time's subjects, and time bids be gone.***William Shakespeare We are to admit no more causes of natural things than such as are both true and sufficient to explain their appearances.***Isaac Newton We are twice armed if we fight with faith.***Plato We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.***Aristotle We are what we repeatedly do; excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.***Aristotle We are what we think.

Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.***Carl Jung We cannot conceive of matter being formed of nothing, since things require a seed to start from... Therefore there is not anything which returns to nothing, but all things return dissolved into their elements.***William Shakespeare We cannot despair of humanity, since we ourselves are human beings.***Albert Einstein We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.***Albert Einstein We cannot teach people anything; we can only help them discover it within themselves.***Galileo Galilei We cannot wish for that we know not.***Voltaire We come nearest to the great when we are great in humility.***Rabindranath Tagore We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.***Albert Camus We could become quite satisfied with ourselves because we are sitting in meditation and are endeavoring to practice the spiritual path. Such satisfaction with ourselves is not the same as contentment. Contentment is necessary, self-satisfaction is detrimental. To be content has to include knowing we are in the right place at the right time to facilitate our own growth. But to be self-satisfied means that we no longer realize the need for growth. All these aspects are important parts of our commitment and makes us into one whole being with a one-pointed direction.***Ayya Khema We deem those happy who from the experience of life have learnt to bear its ills without being overcome by them.***Carl Jung We do not consider patriotism desirable if it contradicts civilized behavior.***Friedrich Durrenmatt We do not hate as long as we still attach a lesser value, but only when we attach an equal or a greater value.***Friedrich Nietzsche We do not learn; and what we call learning is only a process of recollection.***Plato We don't believe in rheumatism and true love until after the first attack.***Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach We don't grow older, we grow riper.***Pablo Picasso We don't like their sound, and guitar music is on the way out.***Decca Recording Co. rejecting the Beatles, 1962 We gain freedom when we have paid the full price.***Rabindranath Tagore We get into the habit of living before acquiring the habit of thinking.

Where things are concerned there are no class distinctions. We must pick out what is good for us where we can find it.***Pablo Picasso We must say that there are as many squares as there are numbers.***Galileo Galilei We never live; we are always in the expectation of living.***Voltaire We often refuse to accept an idea merely because the tone of voice in which it has been expressed is unsympathetic to us.***Friedrich Nietzsche We ought to esteem it of the greatest importance that the fictions which children first hear should be adapted in the most perfect manner to the promotion of virtue.***Plato We ought to fly away from earth to heaven as quickly as we can; and to fly away is to become like God, as far as this is possible; and to become like him is to become holy, just, and wise.***Plato We praise a man who feels angry on the right grounds and against the right persons and also in the right manner at the right moment and for the right length of time.***Aristotle We rarely confide in those who are better than we are.***Albert Camus We say that slavery has vanished from European civilization, but this is not true. Slavery still exists, but now it applies only to women and its name is prostitution.***Victor Hugo We see past time in a telescope and present time in a microscope.
