Do not disturb yourself by thinking of the whole of your life.

For you will be ashamed to confess. In the next place remember that neither the future nor the past pains you, but only the present. But this is reduced to a very little, if you only circumscribe it and chide your mind, if it is unable to hold out against even this. — Marcus Aurelius

There was no corner of the known world where some interest was not alleged to be in danger or under actual attack. If the interests were not Roman, they were those of Rome's allies; and if Rome had no allies, then allies would be invented. When it was utterly impossible to contrive such an interest - why, then it was the national honor that had been insulted. The fight was always invested with an aura of legality.

They were enemies who only waited to fall on the Roman people. — Joseph Alois Schumpeter

Films like 'Bond' fund training schemes for film technicians of the future, and working on films themselves provides a great training ground for budding directors and cinematographers.

Duty - that which sternly impels us in the direction of profit, along the line of desire. — Ambrose Bierce

The fact that the government had to put up hundreds of billions of dollars to Citibank in guarantees was a public declaration that Citibank was a mess. Making Citibank go through financial restructuring would not have conveyed any more different information. So it's very hard to see why it would have had that kind of a panic if it were done well. — Joseph Stiglitz

And that's my point: all great things worth having require great sacrifice worth giving. — Paullina Simons

It was an axiom of "containment" that no part of the known world could be considered neutral.
