- A Question
Is there anyone else out there who would love to see more quotes from classic literature and poetry? Or quotes by famous historical figures? I am really starting to get tired of Harry Potter and Grey's Anatomy! How about you?
Lord Horatio Nelson
- More Nelson Quotes
I could not tread these perilous paths in safety, if I did not keep a saving sense of humour. Gentlemen, when the enemy is committed to a mistake we must not interrupt him too soon. If it be a sin to covet honour I am the most offending soul alive.
Lord Horatio Nelson
- Rules for the Young Gentlemen
Firstly you must always implicitly obey orders without attempting to form any opinion of your own regarding their propriety. Secondly, you must consider every man your enemy who speaks ill of your king; and thirdly you must hate a Frenchman as you hate the Devil. -This is not my quote but Lord Nelson's. I like the French just fine ... excepting perhaps Napoleon!
Lord Horatio Nelson
- Nelson Quotes
England expects that every man will do his duty. No captain can do very wrong if he places his ship alongside that of the enemy. Desperate affairs require desperate remedies.
Henry van Dyke
- Time
Time is very slow for those who wait. Very fast for those who are afraid. Very long for those who lament. Very short for those who celebrate. But for those who love, time is eternal.
Qyazzirah Syeikh Ariffin
- I Am Afraid
You say that you love the rain, but you open your umbrella when it rains. You say that you love the sun, but you find a shadowed spot when the sun shines. You say that you love the wind, but you close your windows when wind blows. This is why I am afraid; you say that you love me too.
Anne Frank
- Good News
Everyone has inside them a piece of good news. The good news is you don't know how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is.
