age motivational sayings and quotations

When it comes to hiding porn, every man is a CIA agent.
~motivational quotes about Men of S. Sachs

The only people helped by the death tax are lawyers, accountants, and IRS agents
~famous saying on Death by Bob Schaffer

In an incredible perversion of justice, former soldiers who sprayed festeringly poisonous chemicals on Vietnam, and now find today that they themselves have been damaged by them, appeal to the people for sympathy and charity. The effects of the defoliant Agent Orange are discussed at length, but not one single newspaper article or hearing that we are aware of has even mentioned the effects of the people who still live in those regions of Vietnam. It's as outlandish as if Nazis who gassed Jews were now to come forward and whine that the poisons they utilized had finally made them sick. The staggering monstrousness goes unlaughed at and even unnoticed, as in a Kafka novel.
~motivation quotations on War by Fred Woodworth, The Match, No. 79

Science has never drummed up quite as effective a tranquilizing agent as a sunny spring day.
~motivational age sayings by W. Earl Hall

Law never made men a whit more just; and by means of their respect for it, even the well-disposed are daily made the agents of injustice. A common and natural result of an undue respect for law is that you may see a file of soldiers, colonel, captain, corporal, privates, powder-monkeys, and all marching in admirable order over hill and dale to the wars, against their wills, ay, against their common sense and consciences, which makes it very steep marching indeed, and produces a palpitation of the heart. They have no doubt that it is a damnable business in which they are concerned; they are all peaceably inclined. Now, what are they? Men at all? or small movable forts and magazines, at the service of some unscrupulous man in power? The mass of men serve the State thus, not as men mainly, but as machines, with their bodies.... In most cases there is no free exercise whatever of the judgment or of the moral sense; but they put themselves on a level with wood and earth and stones; and wooden men can perhaps be manufactured that will serve the purpose as well.
~motivational sayings about age by Henry David Thoreau, On the Duty of Civil Disobedience

Poker is the game closest to the western conception of life, where life and thought are recognized as intimately combined, where free will prevails over philosophies of fate or of chance, where men are considered moral agents and where - at least in the short run - the important thing is not what happens but what people think happens.
~inspirational saying on Poker by John Luckacs

Maybe we should develop a Crayola bomb as our next secret weapon. A happiness weapon. A beauty bomb. And every time a crisis developed, we would launch one. It would explode high in the air - explode softly - and send thousands, millions, of little parachutes into the air. Floating down to earth - boxes of Crayolas. And we wouldn't go cheap, either - not little boxes of eight. Boxes of sixty-four, with the sharpener built right in. With silver and gold and copper, magenta and peach and lime, amber and umber and all the rest. And people would smile and get a little funny look on their faces and cover the world with imagination.
~motivational quotes about Peace of Robert Fulghum

Fans are the only ones who really care. There are no free-agent fans.
~famous saying on Sports by Dick Young

~motivational quotes about Solitude of Jack Kerouac

If you wish to keep as well as possible, the less you think about your health the better.

Thrift means that you should always have the best you can possibly afford, when the thing has any reference to your physical and mental health, to your growth in efficiency and power.
~motivation quotations on Thrift by Orison Swett Marden

Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary. It fulfils the same function as pain in the human body. It calls attention to an unhealthy state of things.
~motivational health sayings by Winston Churchill

The healthy being craves an occasional wildness, a jolt from normality, a sharpening of the edge of appetite, his own little festival of the Saturnalia, a brief excursion from his way of life.
~motivational sayings about health by Robert MacIver

Why does a person even get up in the morning? You have breakfast, you floss your teeth so you'll have healthy gums in your old age, and then you get in your car and drive down I-10 and die. Life is so stupid I can't stand it.
~inspirational saying on Life by Barbara Kingsolver, Animal Dreams

As soon as I realized that I didn't need meat to survive or to be in good health, I began to see how forlorn it all is. If only we had a different mentality about the drama of the cowboy and the range and all the rest of it. It's a very romantic notion, an entrenched part of American culture, but I've seen, for example, pigs waiting to be slaughtered, and their hysteria and panic was something I shall never forget.
~motivational quotes about Vegetarianism of Cloris Leachman

Use your health, even to the point of wearing it out. That is what it is for. Spend all you have before you die; do not outlive yourself.
~famous saying on Carpe Diem by George Bernard Shaw

[S]leep is the golden chain that ties health and our bodies together.
~motivation quotations on Sleep by Thomas Dekker

Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessaryIt fulfils the same function as pain in the human bodyIt calls attention to an unhealthy state of things
~motivational health sayings by Winston Churchill

A vigorous five-mile walk will do more good for an unhappy but otherwise healthy adult than all the medicine and psychology in the world.
~motivational sayings about health by Paul Dudley White

forgiveness motivational sayings and quotations

Forgiveness does not change the past, but it does enlarge the future.
~motivational quotes about Forgiveness of Paul Boese

Love is an act of endless forgiveness, a tender look which becomes a habit
~famous saying on Valentine's Day by Peter Ustinov

The best thing to give to your enemy is forgiveness; to an opponent, tolerance; to a friend, your heart; to your child, a good example; to a father, deference; to your mother, conduct that will make her proud of you; to yourself, respect; to all men, charity.
~motivation quotations on Attitude by Arthur James Balfour

The dying Jesus is the evidence of God's anger toward sin; but the living Jesus is the proof of God's love and forgiveness.
~motivational forgiveness sayings by Lorenz Eifert

We are told that people stay in love because of chemistry, or because they remain intrigued with each other, because of many kindnesses, because of luck . . . But part of it has got to be forgiveness and gratefulness
~motivational sayings about forgiveness by Ellen Goodman

Forgiveness is the sweetest revenge
~inspirational saying on I'm Sorry by Isaac Friedmann

Christianity tells people to repent and promises them forgiveness. It therefore has nothing (as far as I know) to say to people who do not know they have done anything to repent of and who do not feel that they need forgiveness.
~motivational quotes about Religion of C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission.

The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.

It's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission
~motivational forgiveness sayings by Grace Hopper

Anger ventilated often hurries toward forgiveness; and concealed often hardens into revenge.
~motivational sayings about forgiveness by Edward G. Bulwer-Lytton

Forgiveness is the sweetest revenge.
~inspirational saying on Forgiveness by Isaac Friedmann

Strange...a God who could make good children as easily as bad, yet preferred to make bad ones; who made them prize their bitter life, yet stingily cut it short; mouths Golden Rules and forgiveness multiplied seventy times seven and invented Hell; who mouths morals to other people and has none himself; who frowns upon crimes yet commits them all; who created man without invitation, then tries to shuffle the responsibility for man's acts upon man, instead of honorably placing it where it belongs, upon himself; and finally with altogether divine obtuseness, invites this poor, abused slave to worship him!
~motivational quotes about Religion of Mark Twain, The Mysterious Stranger

I can forgive, but I cannot forget, is only another way of saying, I will not forgive. Forgiveness ought to be like a cancelled note - torn in two, and burned up, so that it never can be shown against one.
