Mats Olsson. Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Having a family is like having a bowling alley installed in your brain. Martin Mull Why was I born with such contemporaries? Oscar Wilde If I had only known, I would have been a locksmith. Albert Einstein Do not hire a man who does your work for money, but him who does it for love of it. Henry David Thoreau Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than exposure. Helen Keller The highest result of education is tolerance. Helen Keller, 'Optimism,' 1903 Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings. Helen Keller, My Religion, 1927 Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.... Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Helen Keller, The Open Door (1957) It seemed the world was divided into good and bad people. The good ones slept better... while the bad ones seemed to enjoy the waking hours much more. Woody Allen In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Douglas Adams It is no coincidence that in no known language does the phrase 'As pretty as an Airport' appear. Douglas Adams The more laws and order are made prominent, The more thieves and robbers there will be. Lao-tzu, The Way of Lao-tzu I have never let my schooling interfere with my education. Mark Twain Divide and rule, a sound motto. Unite and lead, a better one. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe Your very silence shows you agree. Euripides No legacy is so rich as honesty.
