"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."(Sir Winston Churchill)

"A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked. "

Quote Meanings

Answer 4

I'll give you my favourite one that I found, if you check it out ou'll see why I am a big fan.

“A fine quotation is a diamond in the hand of a man of wit and a pebble in the hand of a fool.”

“I love quotations because it is a joy to find thoughts one might have, beautifully expressed with much authority by someone recognizably wiser than oneself.” -Marlene Dietrich

“The ability to quote is a serviceable substitute for wit.”

Answer 5

“The trouble with lying and deceiving is that their efficiency depends entirely upon a clear notion of the truth that the liar and deceiver wishes to hide. In this sense, truth, even if it does not prevail in public, possesses an ineradicable primacy over all falsehoods.”

Answer 6

Happiness is not the whole aim of education. A man must be independent in his powers and character; able to work and assert his mastery over all that depends on him.”

Answer 7

“Such duty as the subject owes the prince, even such a woman oweth to her husband, and when she is forward, peevish, sullen, sour, and not obedient to his honest will. What is she but a foul contending rebel, and graceless traitor to her loving lord?” (Shakespeare V.ii. 155-160).
