"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy"
..................................................................................................
The book that Jack was writing contained the one sentence ("All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy") repeated over and over. Stanley Kubrick had each page individually typed. For the Italian version of the film, Kubrick used the phrase "Il mattino ha l' oro in bocca" ("He who wakes up early meets a golden day"). For the German version, it was "Was Du heute kannst besorgen, das verschiebe nicht auf Morgen" ("Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today"). For the Spanish version, it was "No por mucho madrugar amanece más temprano" ("Although one will rise early, it won't dawn sooner."). For the French version, it was "Un 'Tiens' vaut mieux que deux 'Tu l'auras'" ("A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush").

I like the sentence in Martian Luther King, Jr.'s letter that he wrote from Birmingham Jail that tells how he had to explain to his daughter why she couldn't go to "Funtown" because of her skin color. It shows the harshness or racism.

''They marched past me, naked and silent- I looked at one of them, she was about 19 years old..........
Then i heard gun shots.'' (anon)
I know 2 sentences but forgive me it still makes me cry. It was from a surviver of the camps in WW2 that i read years ago.
When im feeling crap i think of this and realise how lucky i am.
