I decided to keep a record of my favorite quotes in this blog. Here are my favorites so far and I’ll post new ones as I come across them.
- “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” – Leonardo DaVinci
- “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only a page” – St. Augustine
- ” A man who speaks two languages is worth two men” – Spanish Proverb
- “If you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough” – Einstein
- “You only know what you’ve been taught” – Unknown
- “How many people there must be in the world who run away from others when they don’t see themselves.” – Lazarillo de Thormes
- “The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing” – Socrates
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king
“Gross National Product does not allow for the health of our children, the quality of their education, or the joy of their play,” he said. “It does not include the beauty of our poetry or the strength of our marriages, the intelligence of our public debate, or the integrity of our public officials.” – Robert Kennedy
