View quotes by Baron Pierre De Coubertin

View quotes by Anatole France

In crossing a heath, suppose I pitched my foot against a stone, and were asked how the stone came to be there: I might possibly answer, that for any thing I know to the contrary, it had lain there for ever: nor would it perhaps be very easy to show the absurdity of this answer. But suppose I had found a watch upon the ground, and it should be inquired how the watch happened to be in that place; I should hardly think of the answer which I had before given, that for any thing I knew, the watch might have always been there. Yet why should not this answer serve for the watch, as well as for the stone? why is it not as admissable in the second case as in the first? For this reason, and for no other, viz., that when we come to inspect the watch, we perceive (what we could not discover in the stone) that its several parts are framed and put together for a purpose . . . This mechanism being observed . . . the inference, we think, is inevitable, that the watch must have had a maker; that there must have existed, at some time, and at some place of other, an artificer or artificers, who formed it for the purpose which we find it actually to answer; who comprehended its construction, and designed its use.

If fifty million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing.

What a grand thing, to be loved! What a grander thing still, to love!

I find that the very things that I get criticized for, which is usually being different and just doing my own thing and just being original, is the very thing that's making me successful.
View quotes by Shania Twain

A living thing is distinguished from a dead thing by the multiplicity of the changes at any moment taking place in it.
View quotes by Herbert Spencer

It's a shame that the only thing a man can do for eight hours a day is work. He can't eat for eight hours; he can't drink for eight hours; he can't make love for eight hours. The only thing a man can do for eight hours is work.
View quotes by William Faulkner

It is not doing the thing we like to do, but liking the thing we have to do, that makes life blessed.
View quotes by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe

The only thing I can do is play baseball. I have to play ball. It's the only thing I know.
View quotes by Mickey Mantle

A commodity appears at first sight an extremely obvious, trivial thing. But its analysis brings out that it is a very strange thing, abounding in metaphysical subtleties and theological niceties.
