• Undoubtedly to some, the idea of giving so much love to self will seem very cold, hard and unmerciful. Still this matter may be seen in a different light, when we find that 'looking out for number one,' as directed by the infinite, is really looking out for number two and is indeed the only way to permanently benefit number two.

• Sentémonos y burlemos a la buena ama de casa Fortuna de su rueda, para que sus dones sean en adelante otorgados equitativamente, ojalá pudiéramos hacerlo porque sus beneficios están muy mal colocados y la ciega generosa se equivoca mucho en sus dones a las mujeres. Es verdad que a las que hace justas apenas las hace honestas y a las que hace honestas las hace muy desfavorables. No, ahora pasas del oficio de las Fortunas al de las Naturalezas. La fortuna reina en los dones del mundo, no en los rasgos de la naturaleza.

• El mundo en que vivimos se beneficiaría enormemente si los hombres y mujeres de todas partes ejercieran el amor puro de Cristo, que es bondadoso, manso y humilde. No tiene envidia ni orgullo. Es desinteresado porque no busca nada a cambio. No tolera el mal ni la mala voluntad, ni se regocija en la iniquidad; no tiene lugar para la intolerancia, el odio o la violencia. Se niega a tolerar el ridículo, la vulgaridad, el abuso o el ostracismo. Anima a personas diversas a vivir juntas en el amor cristiano, independientemente de sus creencias religiosas, raza, nacionalidad, situación económica, educación o cultura.

• The bottom line is that if I did it, you can do it. I got rich without the benefit of a college education or a penny of capital but making many errors along the way. I went from being a pauper.. a hippie dropout on the dole, living in a crummy room without the proverbial pot to piss in, without even the money to pay the rent, without a clue as to what to do next.. to being rich...

• Se necesitan oídos fuertes para oírnos juzgar con franqueza, y como son pocos los que pueden soportar la crítica sin sentirse picados por ella, quienes se aventuran a criticarnos realizan un notable acto de amistad. Porque es un amor sano el que se arriesga a herir u ofender para ofrecer un beneficio.

  Michel de Montaigne

• Oh Naturaleza negligente, ¿por qué eres tan parcial, convirtiéndote para algunos de tus hijos en una madre tierna y benigna, y para otros en una madrastra cruel y despiadada? Veo a tus hijos entregados como esclavos a otros sin recibir jamás beneficio alguno, y en lugar de cualquier recompensa por los servicios que les han prestado se les paga con los más severos castigos.

• At the heart of that western freedom and democracy is the belief that the individual man...is the touchstone of value, and all society, all groups, and states, exist for that person's benefit. Therefore the enlargement of liberty for individual human beings must be the supreme goal and the abiding practice of any western society.

• But the greatest error of all the rest is the mistaking or misplacing of the last or farthest end of knowledge: for men have entered into a desire of learning and knowledge, sometimes upon a natural curiosity and inquisitive appetite; sometimes to entertain their minds with variety and delight; sometimes for ornament and reputation; and sometimes to enable them to victory of wit and contradiction; and most times for lucre and profession; and seldom sincerely to give a true account of their gift of reason, to the benefit and use of men.

• Science affects the average man and woman in two ways already. He or she benefits by its application driving a motor-car or omnibus instead of a horse-drawn vehicle, being treated for disease by a doctor or surgeon rather than a witch, and being killed with an automatic pistol or shell in place of a dagger or a battle-axe.

• After that cancellation [of the Superconducting Super Collider in Texas, after $2 billion had been spent on it], we physicists learned that we have to sing for our supper. ... The Cold War is over.

• In point of fact, no conclusive disproof of a theory can ever be produced; for it is always possible to say that the experimental results are not reliable or that the discrepancies which are asserted to exist between the experimental results and the theory are only apparent and that they will disappear with the advance of our understanding. If you insist on strict proof (or strict disproof) in the empirical sciences, you will never benefit from experience, and never learn from it how wrong you are.
