Quotations
Quote of the Day

Misquotation is, in fact, the pride and privilege of the learned. A widely-read man never quotes accurately, for the rather obvious reason that he has read too widely.

The future is here. It's just not widely distributed yet.
View quotes by William Gibson

What is failure except feebleness? And what is it to miss one's mark except to aim widely and weakly?
View quotes by Ouida

Our bounty, like a drop of water, disappears, when diffus'd too widely
View quotes by Oliver Goldsmith

Wealth is not without its advantages and the case to the contrary, although it has often been made, has never proved widely persuasive.
View quotes by Galbraith

In the beginning the universe was created. This has made alot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
View quotes by Douglas Adams

I asked Ring Lardner the other day how he writes his short stories, and he said he wrote a few widely separated words or phrases on a piece of paper and then went back and filled in the spaces.
View quotes by Harold Ross

Everyone realizes that one can believe little of what people say about each other. But it is not so widely realized that even less can one trust what people say about themselves.

The ultimate goal of the educational system is to shift to the individual the burden of pursing his own education. This will not be a widely shared pursuit until we get over our odd conviction that education is what goes on in school buildings and nowhere else.

Heroin on any basis is a worse drug, a more dangerous drug than cannabis, but heroin in its pharmaceutical preparation, diamorphine, is available on prescription for people in pain and it's very widely prescribed.
So the law does not say that, because a drug is classed as illegal it therefore should not be available on prescription. What it does say, however, is that before drugs are available on prescription they've got to be properly tested and reearched. Not that that's happened to a lot of opiates, heroin and cocain derivatives.
So far the medical researchers have not been able to prove, indeed very few have tried, that there are real beneficial medicinal effects from cannabis.
