Some Quotations

I like to read, and read over, good quotes. They seem to keep me in a more positive and useful frame of mind, even if the quote is a warning (like this first quote).

--Civilization is just a slow process of learning to be kind.   Charles L. Lucas

--There is much pleasure to be gained from useless knowledge.    Bertrand Russell

--We're drowning in information and starving for knowledge.   Rutherford D. Rogers

--Life is a long lesson in humility.  Sir James M. Barrie

--Maturity is the capacity to endure uncertainty.  John Finley

--Every time history repeats itself, the price goes up.    Old saying

--Humankind cannot bear very much reality.   T. S. Eliot

--A [person's] ruin lies in his tongue.  Egyptian saying
