“When you've been burned your always going to have your hand on the pull cord...the right one makes you forget you have the parachute on.”
Shane Pendley
“As a well spent day brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death.”
Leonardo da Vinci
“The happiness which brings enduring worth to life is not the superficial happiness that is dependent on circumstances. It is the happiness and contentment that fills the soul even in the midst of the most distressing circumstances and the most bitter environment. It is the kind of happiness that grins when things go wrong and smiles through the tears. The happiness for which our souls ache is one undisturbed by success or failure, one which will root deeply inside us and give inward relaxation, peace, and contentment, no matter what the surface problems may be. That kind of happiness stands in need of no outward stimulus.”
Billy Graham
“Teach not thy lip such scorn, for it was made For kissing, lady, not for such contempt.”
William Shakespeare
“A pinch of praise is worth a pound of scorn. A dash of encouragement is more helpful than a dipper of pessimism. A cup of kindness is better than a cupboard of criticism.”
William Arthur Ward
“Be bloody, bold, and resolute; laugh to scorn the power of man.”
“Scorn also to depress thy competitor by any dishonest or unworthy method; strive to raise thyself above him only by excelling him; so shall thy contest for superiority be crowned with honour, if not with success.”
Akhenaton
