Quotations are the fundamental distillation of a writer’s life and thinking as recorded in words and phrases for posterity. Through them the reader is afforded the unique opportunity to share in the thoughts, the life and the experiences of the writer. In a special way, they offer the reader a window into the mind of the author and hopefully an inducement to read further and learn more about the author and the story he relates.


On a wider scale, they are, as William Feather wrote, “the wisdom of the wise and the experience of the ages preserved into perpetuity“, and as such they are available for the enrichment and enhancement of humanity, regardless of age, sex, race, educational or economic status. They are indeed, as the Talmud states, “food for the famished”.

The collection of quotations presented in this blog, have been chosen by me because of their special impact upon me. They have been published so that you too, may experience the joy I have had over the years reading them and getting to know the authors.


I trust that you will come to know the feeling of deep satisfaction possible from reading them, searching out the author and meditating upon their meaning and their impact on your life.

TOGETHER

The family that prays Together, stays together ……Al Scalpone

Remember, we all stumble, every one of us.
That's why it's a comfort to go Together, hand in hand. ……..Emily Kimbrough

A dream you dream alone is only a dream.
A dream you dream Together is reality. ……John Lennon

Let us put our minds Together and see
what life we can make for our children. ……Sitting Bull

We must learn to live Together as brothers, or
perish together as fools. …….Martin Luther King, Jr.

Great things are not done by impulse,
but by a series of small things brought Together. ……..Vincent Van Gogh

We will not learn to live Together in peace,
by killing each other's children. ......Jimmy Carter

Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other,
But looking outward Together, in the same direction. ….Antoine de Saint-Exupery
