Find Quotations
Human beings must have action; and they will make it if they cannot find it.
Albert Einstein
To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him.
Buddha
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
Steve Jobs
If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
Steve Jobs
Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.
Mark Twain
Only one thing is impossible for God: To find any sense in any copyright law on the planet.
Mark Twain
Those who are free of resentful thoughts surely find peace.
Buddha
It was wonderful to find America, but it would have been more wonderful to miss it.
Mark Twain
If we open a quarrel between past and present, we shall find that we have lost the future.
Winston Churchill
