Quotes & Temptation Epigram Speech

Innocents Abroad by Mark Twain What is it that confers the noblest delight? What is that which swells a man's breast with pride above that which any other experience can bring to him? Discovery! To know that you are walking where none others have walked; that you are beholding what human eye has not seen before; that you are breathing a virgin atmosphere. To give birth to an idea -- to discover a great thought.

 

-AND-

This Entire literary work is a tactful humorous epigram on mans’ reality from the beginning of time to even Present folly, As if Cavemen were more Civilized or could do so much more with advancement in civilization … ---In & Out Awareness Name: The Perfect Weapon…Pg. 17 #83

Temptation Epigram Speech

To be or not to be is the question:…Whether ‘tis nobler in mind to suffer…The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,…or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing in them? To die: To sleep; no more; and by a sleep to say we end …The heart-ache and the natural thousand shocks …That flesh is heir to, ‘tis a consummation Devoutly to wish’d. To die, To sleep: …To sleep: perchance to dream: ay, there’s the rub; For in that sleep of death what dreams may come… When we have shuffled off this mortal coil.. ~ William Shakespeare - from Hamlet 3/1, written between 1599 and 1601. Hamlet’s famous ” To be or not to be ” speech.~Always nice to re-visit, especially when you least expect it.

6.) Great Writing Quotes

1.) Television is a triumph of equipment over people, and the minds that control it are so small that you could put them in a gnat’s navel with room left for two caraway seeds and an agent’s heart.

-Fred Allen, Co Evolution Quarterly, winter, 1977

2.)Cherish your visions; cherish your ideals: cherish the music that stirs in your heart, the beauty that forms in your mind,, the loveliness that drapes your purest thoughts, for out of them will grow delightful conditions, all heavenly environment; of these if you but remain true to them, your world will at least be built. –James Allen

3.)There is one kind of laugh that I always did recommend; it looks out of the eye first with a merry twinkle, then it creeps down on its hands and knees and plays around the mouth like a pretty moth around the blaze of a candle, then it steals over into the dimples of the cheeks and rides around in those whirlpools for a while, then it lights up the whole face like the mellow bloom on a damask rose, then it swims up on the air, with a peal as clear and as happy as a dinner-bell, then it goes back again on gold tiptoes like an angel out for an airing, and it lies down on its little bed of violets in the heart where it came from. -Josh Billings

 

4.)The true beloveds of this world are in their lover’s eyes lilacs opening, ship lights, school bells, a landscape, remembered conversations, friends, a child’s Sunday, lost voices, one’s favorite suit, autumn and all seasons, memory, yes, it being the earth water of existence, memory. -Truman Capote

5.) Most marvelous and enviable is the fecundity of fancy which can adorn whatever it touches, which can invest naked fact and dry reasoning with unlooked for beauty, make flowers bloom even on the brow of the precipice. -Margaret Fuller

 

6.) To believe in a child is to believe in the future. Through their aspiration they will save the world. With their aspirations they will save the world. With their combined knowledge the turbulent seas of hate and injustice will be calmed. They will champion the causes of life’s underdogs, forging a society without class discrimination. They will supply humanity with music and beauty as it has never known. They will endure. Towards these ends I pledge my life’s work. I will supply the children with tools and knowledge to overcome the obstacles. I will pass on the wisdom of my years and temper it with patience. I shall impact in each child the desire to fulfill his or her dream. I shall teach. -Henry James

7.)He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much; who has enjoyed the trust of pure women, the respect of intelligent men, and the love of small children; who has filled his niche, and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth’s beauty, or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others, and given them the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory a benediction. -Bessoe Anderson Stanley

8.) We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers. They see things in the soft haze of a spring day or in the red fire of a long winter’s evening. Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish and protect them; nurse them through bad days till they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true. -Woodrow Wilson

9.) There are some people who read too much: The bibliobibuli. I know some who are constantly drunk on books, as others are drunk on whiskey or religion. They wander through this most diverting and stimulating of worlds in a haze, seeing nothing and hearing nothing. -H. L. Mencken

10.) When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man’s concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses, for art establishes the basic human truths which must serve as the touchstone of our judgment. -John F. Kennedy
