Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson
aftherwards.
Jean Baptiste Henri Lacordaire
Neither genius, fame, nor love show the greatness of the soul. Only kindness
can do that.
Ann Landers
Class has a sense of humor. It knows that a good laugh is the best lubricant
for oiling the machinery of human relations. Class never makes excuses.
It takes its lumps and learns from past mistakes. Class bespeaks an aristocracy
unrelated to ancestors or money. Some extremely wealthy people have no
class at all, while others who are struggling to make ends meet are loaded
with it. Class is real. You can't fake it. Class never tries to build
itself up by tearing others down. Class is already up and need not attempt
to look better by making others look worse. Everyone is comfortable with
the person who has class because he is comfortable with himself. If you
have class, you've got it made. If you don't have class, no matter what
else you have, it won't make up for it.
La Rochefourauld
We promise according to our hopes, and perform according to our fears.
Doug Larson
Some of the world's greatest feats were accomplished by people not smart
enough to know they were impossible.
Jennifer Leas
Frustration is when someone can't handle their own thoughts
Robert Keith Leavitt
People don't ask for facts in making up their minds. They would rather
have one good, soul-satisfying emotion than a dozen facts.
Estella Lee
Poon Wai Meng is a bastard
Robert E. Lee
It is well that war is so terrible, or we should get too fond of it.
Jay Leno
If God doesn't destroy Hollywood Boulevard, he owes Sodom and Gomorrah
an apology.
Sam Levenson
Lead us not into temptation. Just tell us where it is; we'll find it.
Claude Levi-Strauss
The world began without man, and it will complete itself without him.
Stephen Levine
If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make,
who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting?
Kurt Lewin
If you want truly to understand something, try to change it.
Charles Lindbergh Jr.
Any coward can sit in his home and criticize a pilot for flying into a
mountain in a fog. But I would rather, by far, die on a mountainside than
in bed. What kind of man would live where there is no daring? And is life
so dear that we should blame men for dying in adventure? Is there a better
way to die?
Abraham Lincoln
A house divided against itself cannot stand.
The Bible is not my book, and Christianity is not my religion. I could
never give assent to the long, complicated statements of Christian dogma.
You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people
all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time.
My great concern is not whether you have failed, but whether you are
content with your failure.
Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character,
give him power.
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool then to speak out and remove
all doubt.
Things may come to those who wait, but only the things left by those
who hustle.
Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.
Tact is the ability to describe others as they see themselves.
He has the right to criticize who has the heart to help.
I destroy my enemy when I make him my friend.
Henry C. Link
While one person hesitates because he feels inferior, the other is busy
making mistakes and becoming superior.
John Locke
New opinions are always suspected, and usually opposed, without any other
reason but because they are not already common.
Vince Lombardi
The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of
strength , not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.
The quality of a person's life is in direct proportion to their commitment
to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.
Winning is a habit. Unfortunately, so is losing.
Lazarus Long
Being intelligent is not a felony, but most societies evaluate it as at
least a misdemeanor.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending.
Sophia Loren
Sex appeal is 50 per cent what you've got, and 50 percent what people
think you've got.
Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full life
Henry R. Luce
Business more than any other occupation is a continual dealing with the
future; it is a continual calculation, an instinctive exercise in foresight.
Charles J.C. Lyall
There are four things that hold back human progress. Ignorance, stupidity,
committees and accountants.
