Socrates Quotes facebook status updates

PLS CLICK ON ADVERTISEMENTS, SUPPORT MY SITE :):):):):)

A system of morality which is based on relative emotional values is a mere illusion, a thoroughly vulgar conception which has nothing sound in it and nothing true.


Socrates



All men's souls are immortal, but the souls of the righteous are immortal and divine.

Socrates



An honest man is always a child.

Socrates



As for me, all I know is that I know nothing.

Socrates



As to marriage or celibacy, let a man take which course he will, he will be sure to repent.

Socrates



Be as you wish to seem.

Socrates



Be slow to fall into friendship; but when thou art in, continue firm and constant.

Socrates



Beauty is a short-lived tyranny.

Socrates



Beauty is the bait which with delight allures man to enlarge his kind.

Socrates



Beware the barrenness of a busy life.

Socrates



By all means, marry. If you get a good wife, you'll become happy; if you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

Socrates



Death may be the greatest of all human blessings.

Socrates



Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others have labored hard for.

Socrates



False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil.

Socrates



From the deepest desires often come the deadliest hate.

He is a man of courage who does not run away, but remains at his post and fights against the enemy.

He is richest who is content with the least, for content is the wealth of nature.

Socrates



I am the wisest man alive, for I know one thing, and that is that I know nothing.

Socrates



I decided that it was not wisdom that enabled poets to write their poetry, but a kind of instinct or inspiration, such as you find in seers and prophets who deliver all their sublime messages without knowing in the least what they mean.

Socrates



I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance.

Socrates

Hamlet Quotes, facebook status updates

PLS CLICK ON ADVERTISEMENTS,SUPPORT MY SITE :):):):)

And I just think that to introduce an unknown Shakespeare is thrilling, too - not to do Hamlet or Romeo and Juliet, to do the richer Shakespeare. People will come to this and not know the story.


Julie Taymor



At the close of the day when the hamlet is still, and mortals the sweets of forgetfulness prove, when naught but the torrent is heard on the hill, and naught but the nightingale's song in the grove.

James Beattie



'Born to play? Hmmm. Probably Romeo... or Hamlet, I guess. Also, I'd be a great Alexander the Great.

David Carradine



Both Brutus and Hamlet are highly intellectual by nature and reflective by habit. Both may even be called, in a popular sense, philosophic; Brutus may be called so in a stricter sense.

Andrew Coyle Bradley



Doing Shakespeare in the Park has always been a dream. Everyone else says Hamlet, but I want to play Romeo.

Aaron Yoo



From the wrestling of his own soul with the great enemy, comes that depth and mystery which startles us in Hamlet.

Jones Very



Hamlet is a little daunting.

Kyle MacLachlan



Hamlet is a remarkably easy role. Physically it's hard because it tends to be about three hours long and you're talking the whole time. But it's a simple role and it adapts itself very well, because the thing about Hamlet is, we all are Hamlet.

Liev Schreiber



Hamlet is an astonishing intelligence.

Ben Kingsley



I don't admire Freud as much as some people do. Imagine Shakespeare being aware of the Oedipal complex when he wrote Hamlet. It would have been a disaster.

Nathalie Sarraute



I don't make much distinction between being a stand-up comic and acting Shakespeare - in fact, unless you're a good comedian, you're never going to be able to play Hamlet properly.

Ian Mckellen



I don't think Hamlet is mad, nor is he predisposed to be a gloomy or tragic figure.

Kenneth Branagh



I played Hamlet, I played Chekhov and Ibsen and all the classics.

Harvey Korman



I started to realise that it wasn't for me. Perhaps I didn't have to give my Hamlet before I died, that the world might be an OK place without my Hamlet, in fact.

Eric McCormack



I was doing Hamlet in the off-season, and I had a specific idea in my mind about what I wanted that character to look like, and because it's going to lead into the next year, I knew that it was going to have to be established somewhere in the show.

Michael Shanks



I would rather play Hamlet with no rehearsal than TV golf.

Jack Lemon



I'm not in the advertising business, but I think it would be very nice if people went to see the film Hamlet, because it was made with love and integrity.

Julie Christie



I'm not saying that Sam J. Jones was Flash Gordon - there's no such thing. No actor can be the person, that's a bunch of crap. People pay to see an actor be himself, whether he plays Hamlet or whatever.

Sam J. Jones



Macbeth is contending with the realities of this world, Hamlet with those of the next.

Jones Very



Most people don't know that I am an accomplished dramatic actor... But I've performed in several Shakespeare productions including Hamlet, except in this version, Hamlet lives in an apartment with two women, and has to pretend he's gay so that the landlord won't evict him.

John Ritter

Oprah Winfrey



I don't believe in failure. It is not failure if you enjoyed the process.

Oprah Winfrey



I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good.

Oprah Winfrey



I don't think you ever stop giving. I really don't. I think it's an on-going process. And it's not just about being able to write a check. It's being able to touch somebody's life.

Oprah Winfrey



I feel that luck is preparation meeting opportunity.

Oprah Winfrey



I have a lot of things to prove to myself. One is that I can live my life fearlessly.

I still have my feet on the ground, I just wear better shoes.

A dog is not considered a good dog because he is a good barker. A man is not considered a good man because he is a good talker.


Buddha



A jug fills drop by drop.

Buddha



All that we are is the result of what we have thought. If a man speaks or acts with an evil thought, pain follows him. If a man speaks or acts with a pure thought, happiness follows him, like a shadow that never leaves him.

Buddha



All things appear and disappear because of the concurrence of causes and conditions. Nothing ever exists entirely alone; everything is in relation to everything else.

All wrong-doing arises because of mind. If mind is transformed can wrong-doing remain?

An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.

Buddha



An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.

Buddha



Better than a thousand hollow words, is one word that brings peace.

Buddha



Chaos is inherent in all compounded things. Strive on with diligence.

Buddha



Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.

Buddha



Do not overrate what you have received, nor envy others. He who envies others does not obtain peace of mind.

Buddha



Ennui has made more gamblers than avarice, more drunkards than thirst, and perhaps as many suicides as despair.

Buddha



Even death is not to be feared by one who has lived wisely.

Buddha



Every human being is the author of his own health or disease.

Buddha



Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.

Have compassion for all beings, rich and poor alike; each has their suffering. Some suffer too much, others too little.

An overflow of good converts to bad.

As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods; they kill us for their sport.
