The British soldier can stand up to anything except the British War Office.
George Bernard Shaw
The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience.
Emily Dickinson
Apply yourself. Get all the education you can, but then, by God, do something. Don't just stand there, make it happen.
Lee Iacocca
Great minds are related to the brief span of time during which they live as great buildings are to a little square in which they stand: you cannot see them in all their magnitude because you are standing too close to them.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Don't let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.
Earl Nightingale
We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to visit violence on those who would do us harm.
George Orwell
You cannot run away from weakness; you must some time fight it out or perish; and if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?
Robert Louis Stevenson
That one can love another of the same gender, that is what the homophobe really cannot stand.
Stephen Fry
Facts which at first seem improbable will, even on scant explanation, drop the cloak which has hidden them and stand forth in naked and simple beauty.
Galileo Galilei
Words, words, words! They shut one off from the universe. Three quarters of the time one's never in contact with things, only with the beastly words that stand for them.
Aldous Huxley
Small miseries, like small debts, hit us in so many places, and meet us at so many turns and corners, that what they want in weight, they make up in number, and render it less hazardous to stand the fire of one cannon ball, than a volley composed of such a shower of bullets.
Rudyard Kipling
We can stand affliction better than we can prosperity, for in prosperity we forget God.
Dwight L. Moody
Some autistic children cannot stand the sound of certain voices. I have come across cases where teachers tell me that certain children have problems with their voice or another person's voice. This problem tends to be related to high-pitched ladies' voices.
Temple Grandin
Grant stood by me when I was crazy, and I stood by him when he was drunk, and now we stand by each other.
William Tecumseh Sherman
The great thing in the world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
If you fell down yesterday, stand up today.
H. G. Wells
To do anything truly worth doing, I must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in with gusto and scramble through as well as I can.
Og Mandino
I love mankind; it's people I can't stand.
Charles M. Schulz
Even though this is late in an election year, there is no way we can go forward except together and no way anybody can win except by serving the people's urgent needs. We cannot stand still or slip backwards. We must go forward now together.
Gerald R. Ford
Men who know themselves are no longer fools. They stand on the threshold of the door of Wisdom.
Henry Ellis
