"I sometimes think of what future historians will say of us. A single sentence will suffice for modern man: he fornicated and read the papers."
Albert Camus
"It is terrifying to see how easily, in certain people, all dignity collapses. Yet when you think about it, this is quite normal since they only maintain this dignity by constantly striving against their own nature."
Albert Camus
"Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand."
Thomas Carlyle
"If you make a habit of sincere prayer, your life will be very noticeably and profoundly altered. Prayer stamps with its indelible mark our actions and demeanor. A tranquility of bearing, a facial and bodily repose, are observed in those whose inner lives are thus enriched. . . . Properly understood, prayer is a mature activity indispensable to the fullest development of personality . . . . Only in prayer do we achieve that complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind and spirit which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strengths."
Alexis Carrel
"My success just evolved from working hard at the business at hand each day."
Johnny Carson
"Everyone, whether cardinal or scientist, who believes that his own truth is complete and final must become a dogmatist...The more sincere his faith, the more he is bound to persecute, to save others from falling into error."
(Arthur) Joyce
"The basic difference between an ordinary person and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary person takes everything as a blessing or a curse."
Carlos Castaneda
"Writing ought either to be the manufacture of stories for which there is a market demand -- a business as safe and commendable as making soap or breakfast foods -- or it should be an art, which is always a search for something for which there is no market demand, something new and untried, where the values are intrinsic and have nothing to do with standardized values."
Willa Sibert Cather
"Censor: a self-appointed snoophound who sticks his nose in other people's business."
Bennett Alfred Cerf
"Sympathy constitutes friendship; but in love there is a sort of antipathy, or opposing passion. Each strives to be the other, and both together make up one whole."
Miguel de Cervantes
"Let every man mind his own business."
Miguel de Cervantes
"Let me leap out of the frying-pan into the fire; or, out of God's blessing into the warm sun."
Miguel de Cervantes
"Liberty is one of the most valuable blessings that Heaven has bestowed upon mankind."
Miguel de Cervantes
"Sing away sorrow, cast away care."
Miguel de Cervantes
"Make it thy business to know thyself, which is the most difficult lesson in the world."
Miguel de Cervantes
"In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love."
Marc Chagall
"We should seek by all means in our power to avoid war, by analysing possible causes, by trying to remove them, by discussion in a spirit of collaboration and good will. I cannot believe that such a programme would be rejected by the people of this country, even if it does mean the establishment of personal contact with the dictators."
Neville Chamberlain
"There are no optimistic or pessimistic personalities. There are only single, individual choices for optimistic or pessimistic thoughts."
Steve Chandler
"Every mind was made for growth, for knowledge, and its nature is sinned against when it is doomed to ignorance."
William Ellery Channing
"I've learned that I like my teacher because she cries when we sing Silent Night."
Child Age 7
