Hi no Seijin

I remember seeing a topic for funny quotes a while back, but not one for the more inspirational sayings.  So I figured I'd start one.  I have a whole notebook for them, and I'll start off with some of my favorite ones.

"Forgiveness is not an occasional act:  it is an attitude."--Martin Luther King, Jr.
"He who is afraid to ask is ashamed of learning."--Unknown
"The weak can never forgive.  Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong."--Mohandas Gandhi
"If knowledge can create problems, it is not through ignorance that we can solve them."--Isaac Asimov
"I can accept failure, everyone fails at something.  But I can't except not trying."--Michael Jordan

Why is it that, as a culture, we are more comfortable seeing two men holding guns than holding hands?" - Ernest Gaines.

Hi no Seijin

Um, Link104, I started this topic for inspirational quotes, and I doubt any of the ones you have provided so far could be considered that.  If you want, I could dig up the thread for funny quotes for you.

My mom just sent me Good Stuff, the source for a majority of the quotes I have hoarded over just about three years.  Let's see what we have here.

"If you don't believe in yourself, who will?"--Unknown
"Following a precedent is an easy substitute for thinking."--Unknown
"We fear things in proportion to our ignorance of them."--Livy
