You may not realize it when it happens, but a kick in the teeth may be the best thing in the world for you.
Walt Disney
If the other person injures you, you may forget the injury; but if you injure him you will always remember.
Khalil Gibran
I don't pity any man who does hard work worth doing. I admire him. I pity the creature who does not work, at whichever end of the social scale he may regard himself as being.
Theodore Roosevelt
If a writer knows enough about what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due to only one ninth of it being above water.
Ernest Hemingway
Character may almost be called the most effective means of persuasion.
Aristotle
You're beautiful, like a May fly.
Ernest Hemingway
A serious writer is not to be confounded with a solemn writer. A serious writer may be a hawk or a buzzard or even a popinjay, but a solemn writer is always a bloody owl.
Ernest Hemingway
The good parts of a book may be only something a writer is lucky enough to overhear or it may be the wreck of his whole damn life and one is as good as the other.
Ernest Hemingway
If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.
Thomas Paine
You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it.
Margaret Thatcher
It may be the cock that crows, but it is the hen that lays the eggs.
Margaret Thatcher
It pays to know the enemy - not least because at some time you may have the opportunity to turn him into a friend.
Margaret Thatcher
If one way be better than another, that you may be sure is nature's way.
Aristotle
We make war that we may live in peace.
Aristotle
It is just that we should be grateful, not only to those with whose views we may agree, but also to those who have expressed more superficial views; for these also contributed something, by developing before us the powers of thought.
Aristotle
Whether if soul did not exist time would exist or not, is a question that may fairly be asked; for if there cannot be someone to count there cannot be anything that can be counted, so that evidently there cannot be number; for number is either what has been, or what can be, counted.
Aristotle
Inferiors revolt in order that they may be equal, and equals that they may be superior. Such is the state of mind which creates revolutions.
Aristotle
By working faithfully eight hours a day you may eventually get to be boss and work twelve hours a day.
Robert Frost
A son can bear with equanimity the loss of his father, but the loss of his inheritance may drive him to despair.
Niccolo Machiavelli
Severities should be dealt out all at once, so that their suddenness may give less offense; benefits ought to be handed ought drop by drop, so that they may be relished the more.
Niccolo Machiavelli
