滿盈者，不損何為？慎之！慎之！

驕傲的人必然嫉妒，他對於那最以德性受人稱讚的人便最懷忌恨。

九牛一毫莫自誇，驕傲自滿必翻車。曆覽古今多少事，成由謙遜敗由奢。

一個驕傲的人，結果總是在驕傲裡毀滅了自己。

成功的第一個條件是真正的虛心，對自己的一切敝帚自珍的成見，只要看出同真理衝突，都願意放棄。

傲不可長，欲不可縱，樂不可極，志不可滿。

真正的勇敢，都包含謙虛。

啊！誇獎的話，出於自己口中，那是多麽乏味！

慷慨，尤其是還有謙虛，就會使人贏得好感。

我們不要把眼睛生在頭頂上，致使用了自己的腳踏壞了我們想得之於天上的東西。

不能憑最初印象去判斷一個人。美德往往以謙虛鑲邊，缺點往往被虛偽所掩蓋。

事情還沒有做成就吹牛皮誇口，的確糟糕透頂。

謙遜可以使一個戰士更美麗。

我們的驕傲多半是基於我們的無知。

恃國家之大，矜民人之眾，欲見威於敵者，謂之驕兵。

如果學習只在於模仿，那麼我們就不會有科學，也不會有技術。

求學的三個條件是：多觀察多吃苦多研究。

我們從失敗中學到的東西要比在成功中學到的東西多得多。

活著就要學習，學習不是為了活著。

對所學知識內容的興趣可能成為學習動機。

學而不思則罔，思而不學則殆。

The Church is or should go back to being a community of God's people, and priests, pastors and bishops, who have the care of souls, are at the service of the people of God.

When I first met Mandela, we did not discuss anything of substance; we just felt each other out. He spent a long time expressing his admiration for the Boer generals and how ingenious they were during the Anglo-Boer war.

The pun exists in a social and political void, caring nothing for the issues of its day, content merely to display itself in its small cleverness.

The industrial society... recognises nothing except the power to acquire... No other kind of hope or satisfaction or pleasure can any longer be envisaged within the culture of capitalism.

Telly and films has been my thing, not necessarily by choice, and if the right piece of theatre came along, I would jump at it.

One of the greatest compliments anyone could ever give a director is, 'Everybody was in the same show.' That's something I think about constantly.

I think I rushed and I needed more time with my comeback. I needed more time to get my legs stronger to be able to handle the workload. You can only train for that by pitching innings. You can't simulate pitching off a mound in a game inside a weight room.

I can still put down some pretty nasty stuff on paper, which is what I enjoy doing.

It's always cool to meet people who can do things that you have no capacity to do.

Fear doesn’t exist anywhere except in the mind.

Hosting is a thankless job.

When I was a teenager, I worked at the Gap for a summer folding shirts. That was pretty mindless and soul-sucking.

I've got a little arthritis that I have to deal with. I was 6 feet 7 when I started, and I've shrunk up a little bit. I'm probably 6-5 or so now. But up here at 82, I feel pretty good. I'm sticking in there.

I believe everyone should have a pair of 'party pumps,' something with a little bit of sparkle that is attention grabbing and makes you happy.

Consumer accountability drives quality and efficiency

As I've been able to once again gain the benefits of speed work, I'm enjoying my running more and more.

I have turned down a lot of money for things that would have made me feel cheesy.

A catcher and his body are like the outlaw and his horse. Hes got to ride that nag till it drops.

What I love most about achieving whatever I've achieved is that the Seattle Seahawks follow me on Twitter!

As far as Iraq, the important thing is that the Taliban is gone in Afghanistan, three-quarters of the al-Qaida leadership is either dead or in jail, and we now have Saudi Arabia working with us, Pakistan working with us.

There is an essential difference between someone who harms a child on purpose and someone who harms a child by accident during combat in civilian territory.

Doing the right thing daily compounds over time.

I am struck by how quickly I am prone to judgmentalism.

Writing is how I find out what I believe and what I care most deeply about. It's how I sort through the mess of daily experience and try to make sense of it - by stepping out of it for a while. Writing is how I train a searchlight into the darker corners of my self and the world, as I'm sure I'd never do otherwise.
