History will be kind to me for I intend to write it. Winston S. Churchill Humor #History #Humor #Writing
I never feel lonely if I've got a book - they're like old friends. Even if you're not reading them over and over again, you know they are there. And they're part of your history. They sort of tell a story about your journey through life. Emilia Fox Life #History #Journey #Reading
You accept that this civilisation could be abolished and life will begin later on after a few thousand years because that is something that has happened in the history of this planet. When you have peace in yourself and accept, then you are calm enough to do something, but if you are carried by despair there is no hope. Thich Nhat Hanh Hope #History #Life #Peace
That's all a man can hope for during his lifetime - to set an example - and when he is dead, to be an inspiration for history. William McKinley Hope #Dead #History #Lifetime
Throughout history, great leaders have known the power of humor. Allen Klein Humor #Great #History #Power
Every major question in history is a religious question. It has more effect in molding life than nationalism or a common language. Hilaire Belloc Life #History #Language #Question
I know that many of you do wear such a cross of Christ, not in any ostentatious way, not in a way that might harm you at your work or recreation, but a simple indication that you value the role of Jesus Christ in the history of the world, that you are trying to live by Christ's standards in your own daily life. Keith O'Brien Life #Easter #History #Work
History has remembered the kings and warriors, because they destroyed; art has remembered the people, because they created. William Morris Arts #History #Kings #Remembered
Yes, the Bible should be taught in our schools because it is necessary to understand the Bible if we are to truly understand our own culture and how it came to be. The Bible has influenced every part of western culture from our art, music, and history, to our sense of fairness, charity, and business. Joel Osteen Arts #Business #History #Music
I'm a Larry David fan, right? And it seems to me that Jewish history from the Talmud on has been a self-deprecating, self-critical kind of humor. Peter Eisenman Humor #Fan #History #Jewish
People don't believe or understand that a community can lose hope. You can have a whole community where hopelessness is the norm, where folks don't have faith that things will get better because history and circumstances have proven over 30, 40, or 50 years that things don't get better. Geoffrey Canada Hope #Community #Faith #History
After spending 460 days as a hostage, I did emerge a fundamentally changed person. But I think, like everyone does as they grow older and probably wiser, I can look back at my earlier life - my history, my mistakes, the joy I felt as a young woman traveling the world - with some objectivity and even some humor. Amanda Lindhout Humor #History #Life #Mistakes
It is in the admission of ignorance and the admission of uncertainty that there is a hope for the continuous motion of human beings in some direction that doesn't get confined, permanently blocked, as it has so many times before in various periods in the history of man. Richard P. Feynman Hope #History #Ignorance
Posterity! You will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom! I hope you will make a good use of it. John Adams Hope #Freedom #Good #History
Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire. Pierre Teilhard de Chardin Love #God #History #Time
There was a manifesto in the late '60s/early '70s, and it basically laid out what 'black art' was and that it should embrace black history and black culture. There were all these rules - I was shocked, when I found it in a book, that it even existed, that it would demarcate these artists. Kara Walker Arts #Book #Culture #History
In the long term we can hope that religion will change the nature of man and reduce conflict. But history is not encouraging in this respect. The bloodiest wars in history have been religious wars. Richard M. Nixon Hope #Change #History #Nature
Humor is so important to the American scene throughout history. Bob Newhart Humor #History #Scene #Throughout
