Is it worthwhile that we jeer at each other, In blackness of heart--that we war to the knife? God pity us all in our pitiful strife. --Joaquin Miller [Cincinnatus Hiner Miller] (1837-1913) American poet and journalist, "Is it Worthwhile?" No man is exempt from saying silly things; the mischief is to say them deliberately. --Michel Eyquem de Montaigne (1533-1592) French moralist and essayist - In all the ills which befall us, we look more at the intention than the effect. A tile which falls from the house may hurt more, but does not vex us so much as a stone thrown designedly by an ill-natured hand. --Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) French philosopher and novelist, _Reveries of a Solitary Walker_ [1782] The only moral lesson which is suited for a child-- the most important lesson for every time of life-- is this, 'Never hurt anybody.' --Jean Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) French philosopher and novelist - This was the most unkindest cut of all. --William Shakespeare (1564-1616) English dramatist, _Julius Caesar_ [1599], act 3, sc. 2, l. 185 Yet each man kills the thing he loves, By each let this be heard, Some do it with a bitter look, Some with a flattering word. The coward does it with a kiss, The brave man with a sword. --Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) Anglo-Irish playwright and poet, _The Ballad of Reading Gaol_ [1898] end page | HABIT - HANGOVER | HAPPINESS | HAPPY BIRTHDAY - HATE | HATS - HEAT | HEALTH | HEAVEN - HIPPOS | HISTORIANS & HISTORY | HITCHCOCK - HOLOCAUST | HOME - HOMETOWNS | HONESTY & HONOR | HOOVER - HOTELS | HOUSE - HUMAN NATURE | HUMAN RACE - HUMANITY | HUMILIATION - HURT | HUMOR | HURTING (SOMEONE) | HUSBANDS - HYPOCRISY | | H | I - J | K - L | M | N - O | P - Q | | Return Home | The Credits | The Cast | Act 1 | Act 2 | Act 3 | The End | The Reviews | Photos | |
