“The cause ceasing, the effect ceases also.”
Edward Coke
“He who would be useful, strong, and happy must cease to be a passive receptacle for the negative, beggarly, and impure streams of thought; and as a wise householder commands his servants and invites his guests, so must he learn to command his desires and to say, with authority, what thoughts he shall admit into the mansion of his soul.”
James Allen
“Who dares to teach must never cease to learn.”
John Cotton Dana
“A pile of rocks ceases to be a rock when somebody contemplates it with the idea of a cathedral in mind.”
Antoine de Saint-Exupery
“When you cease to make a contribution, you begin to die.”
Eleanor Roosevelt
