Here's some quotes from one guy (probably). Ahhhh it feels good to get back into the idea theft business. Thanks indexed. The last quote is especially relevant today (9-11).
A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write, if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What a man can be, he must be.
I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail.
Education is learning to grow, learning what to grow toward, learning what is good and bad, learning what is desirable and undesirable, learning what to choose and what not to choose.
The story of the human race is the story of men and women selling themselves short.
Victory depends on whether or not a duelist has the courage to fight until the bitter end.
What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself.
If you plan on being anything less than you are capable of being, you will probably be unhappy all the days of your life.
The way to recover the meaning of life and the worthwhileness of life is to recover the power of experience, to have impulse voices from within, and to be able to hear these impulse voices from within-and make the point: This can be done.
The good society is one in which virtue pays.
What shall we think of a well-adjusted slave?
Laugh at what you hold sacred, and still hold it sacred.
You will either step forward into growth, or you will step backward into safety.

Idea theft; quote theft...you just have to do it the right way.
Personally, I'm happy to give somebody credit for a quote the first time that I use it:
My friend Mike says,"...
The next time I might say something along the lines of:
Well, it's like I've said before, "...
Before you know it, I've assumed ownership by saying:
It's like I always say, "...
That way I don't have to remember who said all of the good stuff!
This is really wierd getting comments not long after the post goes up. It's making me think it's 11am already. The earliest I usually get one is around 3am from Amanda. .... And I just checked. SHES BACK! A new post! On line now.
Always remember that the difference between research and plagiarism is the use of quotation marks...or, "As my friend Mike says, ..." (thanks, John).
I wonder what time you're getting this comment now.....I'll just hit publish and take a look.
mike peters cartoon is priceless.
