WALLOWING IN WISDOM: A QUOTE A DAY
I can think of no better way to begin the New Year than by
wallowing in the wisdom captured in profoundly insightful
quotations that merit thought and discussion. If you're willing
to deal with one a day, here's two weeks' worth:
1. People are just about as happy as they're willing to be.
-- Abraham Lincoln
2. Don't mistake pleasures for happiness. They're a different
breed of dog. -- Josh Billings
3. No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
-- Eleanor Roosevelt
4. The problem with the rat race is that even if you win, you're
still a rat. -- Lily Tomlin
5. Think about what you want people to say about you after you
die and live backward. -- Unknown
6. All that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good people
to do nothing. -- Edmund Burke
7. When you are in a hole, stop digging. -- Unknown
8. I'd rather be the person who bought the Brooklyn Bridge than
sold it. -- Unknown
9. The key to a worthy life is not success but significance.
-- Michael Josephson
10. The money you have gives you freedom. The money you pursue
enslaves you. -- Jean Jacques Rousseau
11. To know oneself is not necessarily to improve oneself.
-- Paul Valery
12. If you can change your mind you can change your life.
-- William James
13. We are what we repeatedly do. -- Aristotle
14. The key to a better life: Complain less, appreciate more./
Whine less, laugh more. / Talk less, listen more. / Want less,
give more. / Hate less, love more. / Scold less, praise more. /
Fear less, do more. -- Michael Josephson
This is Michael Josephson wishing you a happy and healthy 2004
and reminding you that character counts.
