Good Morning! Here are your daily birthday quotations...
Arthur Conan Doyle (1859 - 1930):
“What can we know? What are we all? Poor silly half-brained
things peering out at the infinite, with the aspirations of angels and the
instincts of beasts.”
and
“When you have eliminated all which is impossible, then
whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.”
and
“It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data.
Insensibly one begins to twist facts to suit theories, instead of theories to
suit facts.”
and
Peter Matthiessen (1927 – 2014):
“When we are mired in the relative world, never lifting our
gaze to the mystery, our life is stunted, incomplete; we are filled with
yearning for that paradise that is lost when, as young children, we replace it with
words and ideas and abstractions - such as merit, such as past, present, and
future - our direct, spontaneous experience of the thing itself, in the beauty
and precision of this present moment.”
Harvey Milk (1930 – 1978):
“It takes no compromise to give people their rights...it
takes no money to respect the individual. It takes no political deal to give
people freedom. It takes no survey to remove repression.”
and
“I know that you cannot live on hope alone, but without it,
life is not worth living. And you...And you...And you...Gotta give em hope.”
and
“Hope will never be silent.”
Morrissey (1959 - ):
“There's more to life than books, you know. But not much
more.”
and
“It's so easy to laugh
It's so easy to hate
It takes strength to be gentle and kind”
and
“I am human and I need to be loved,
just like everybody else does.”
