Charles Schulz Quotes
All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.
I think I've discovered the secret of life - you just hang around until you get used to it.
My life has no purpose, no direction, no aim, no meaning, and yet I'm happy. I can't figure it out. What am I doing right?
Life is like an ice-cream cone, you have to lick it one day at a time.
If I were given the opportunity to present a gift to the next generation, it would be the ability for each individual to learn to laugh at himself.
I love mankind; it's people I can't stand.
It doesn't matter what you believe just so long as you're sincere.
No problem is too big to run away from.
There's a difference between a philosophy and a bumper sticker.
Sometimes I lie awake at night and ask why me? Then a voice answers nothing personal, your name just happened to come up.

Funny/Great Bob Newhart Quotes
All I can say about life is, 'Oh God, enjoy it!'
I think you should be a child for as long as you can. I have been successful for 74 years being able to do that. Don't rush into adulthood, it isn't all that much fun.
I'm most proud of the longevity of my marriage, my kids, and my grandchildren. If you don't have that, you really don't have very much.
Laughter gives us distance. It allows us to step back from an event, deal with it and then move on.
It's getting harder and harder to differentiate between schizophrenics and people talking on a cell phone. It still brings me up short to walk by somebody who appears to be talking to themselves.
I don't like country music, but I don't mean to denigrate those who do. And for the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down'.
I think there's a part, just a part of comedians, that is still childlike.
It was a decision to work clean. I just prefer to work that way. I have no problem with comedians who don't work that way. There was a temptation in the early '70s to reconsider. I decided against it.
This stammer got me a home in Beverly Hills, and I'm not about to screw with it now.
When I started out in 1960, I thought it might possibly last a couple of years. I never expected it to last 42. I take great satisfaction in that longevity.

Quotes from Mahatma Gandhi
The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
Where there is love there is life.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.
You must be the change you wish to see in the world.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
A man is but the product of his thoughts what he thinks, he becomes.
Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.
A 'No' uttered from the deepest conviction is better than a 'Yes' merely uttered to please, or worse, to avoid trouble.
A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.
Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.
An ounce of practice is worth more than tons of preaching.

Nelson Mandela Quotes
A good head and a good heart are always a formidable combination.
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.
If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work with your enemy. Then he becomes your partner.
There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.
It always seems impossible until its done.
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
Let there be work, bread, water and salt for all.
Let freedom reign. The sun never set on so glorious a human achievement.
Money won't create success, the freedom to make it will.
To deny people their human rights is to challenge their very humanity.
I am confident that nobody... will accuse me of selfishness if I ask to spend time, while I am still in good health, with my family, my friends and also with myself.
Courageous people do not fear forgiving, for the sake of peace.
Any man or institution that tries to rob me of my dignity will lose.

Tesla Motors Outselling BMW and Mercedes - Big Step Forward for Electric and Hybrid Cars
A couple months ago Rambling Web noted that Porsche was breaking the mold for hybrid cars by developing a true hybrid super car - Porsche 918 Spyder Hybrid Blows Up Stereotypes. Yet the major question was whether the 918 Spyder would sell.
Well Tesla Motors, taking a different tact, is showing the an upscale electric car can sell quite well. According to 'Wall Streets Cheat Sheet,' Tesla's Model S is actually outselling BMW and Mercedes the competing cars in its class.
This is great news for the future of electric and hybrid cars. It shows that as the quality of these cars increases that demand will likely increase too. As 'Wall Streets Cheat Sheet' notes the success of the Model S opens the door for a more affordable model in the future.
Tesla’s Model S Is Shaming BMW and Mercedes
While Tesla faced huge criticisms about the Model S being too expensive, which would result in a stagnancy of demand, it appears the concerns were unfounded, and that the demand is leading the segment. Given the company’s limitations as a start-up with a product that has yet to become mainstream, these figures are especially impressive.Tesla Motors
Moreover, the Model S was never meant to be an affordable, mass market car; the company was never aiming to build the next GM Chevy (NYSE:GM) Volt or Nissan Leaf. The Model S was designed from the ground up as a luxury car, meant to compete with the likes of the 7 Series and A8.
The company’s business model suggests that as electric cars become more accepted, and concerns over range anxiety and other problems subside, the high cost of electric car technology will slope downward. And when that happens, Tesla will be ready and waiting with an entry-level, ballpark $30,000 model to market to the masses.

Quotes from Oscar Wilde
I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.
Always forgive your enemies - nothing annoys them so much.
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.
Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.
Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.
There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.
Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.
No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist.
A man who does not think for himself does not think at all.
The truth is rarely pure and never simple.
No man is rich enough to buy back his past.
Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known.
Who, being loved, is poor?
What is a cynic? A man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Quotes from Vincent Van Gogh
I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.
The more I think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more artistic than to love others.
The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore.
Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.
There may be a great fire in our hearts, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke.
Conscience is a man's compass.
In spite of everything I shall rise again: I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, and I will go on with my drawing.
What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?
I dream of painting and then I paint my dream.
It is better to be high-spirited even though one makes more mistakes, than to be narrow-minded and all too prudent.
The way to know life is to love many things.
Even the knowledge of my own fallibility cannot keep me from making mistakes. Only when I fall do I get up again.

Wildlife at Pawtuckaway Lake in Nottingham, NH
Kayaked at Pawtuckaway Lake this past weekend. Don't believe I've ever seen so much wildlife in one day. Highly recommend kayaking prior to the real start of boating season. Barely saw another boat until later in the day.
First animal spotted was the Common Loon. Far more impressive than pictures below indicate, it's a beautiful bird, but a bit shy. Did get a good view, however, when a large fish swam under my kayak. Moments later the Loon had a good sized fish in its mouth not far away.
The bird that seemed somewhat unconcerned with the kayak was the Blue Heron. The Blue Heron fished along the edge of the lake, snapping up some small creature, rinsing it off and eating it. The were numerous turtles sunning themselves. Most were not interested in hanging around to have their picture taken, but one stayed in his spot, as seen below.
Finally, I was paddling out of a small cove, took out my camera for a simple shot of the scenery, and a beaver hopped in the water right next to me. That is the second picture down. He slapped his tail and dove under water shortly after the picture was taken.

Outstanding Dr. Seuss Quotes
I meant what I said and I said what I meant.
Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!
Adults are obsolete children.
Why fit in when you were born to stand out?
Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not.
You're in pretty good shape for the shape you are in.
You can get help from teachers, but you are going to have to learn a lot by yourself, sitting alone in a room.
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
Sometimes the questions are complicated and the answers are simple.
The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.
Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
I like nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities.

Great Quotes from Pablo Picasso
The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.
Action is the foundational key to all success.
Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan, in which we must fervently believe, and upon which we must vigorously act. There is no other route to success.
Love is the greatest refreshment in life.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
To draw you must close your eyes and sing.
I don't believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.
To make oneself hated is more difficult than to make oneself loved.
Everything is a miracle. It is a miracle that one does not dissolve in one's bath like a lump of sugar.
If there were only one truth, you couldn't paint a hundred canvases on the same theme.
The older you get the stronger the wind gets - and it's always in your face.
Never permit a dichotomy to rule your life, a dichotomy in which you hate what you do so you can have pleasure in your spare time. Look for a situation in which your work will give you as much happiness as your spare time.
An idea is a point of departure and no more. As soon as you elaborate it, it becomes transformed by thought.
My mother said to me, 'If you are a soldier, you will become a general. If you are a monk, you will become the Pope.' Instead, I was a painter, and became Picasso.

Benjamin Franklin Quotes
The U. S. Constitution doesn't guarantee happiness, only the pursuit of it. You have to catch up with it yourself.
We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.
By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.
Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.
Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain - and most fools do.
Honesty is the best policy.
Well done is better than well said.
Lost time is never found again.
It is the working man who is the happy man. It is the idle man who is the miserable man.
Whatever is begun in anger ends in shame.
It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only one bad one to lose it.
A place for everything, everything in its place.
Energy and persistence conquer all things.
Half a truth is often a great lie.
Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor.
Never leave that till tomorrow which you can do today.

Help the Victims of the Boston Bombing
Last night on Boston's channel 4, Johnathan Elias mentioned that he just talked to a women who lost a foot in the Boston Marathon bombing. She's already looking at what prosthetic will work best for her, but they are very expensive. To compound the problem she'll likely be out of work for quite some time. Hadn't considered this until last night, but sounds like many of the victims have particularly expensive injuries that will need multiple surgeries and expensive prosthetics.
So if you're able... One Fund Boston was established to help the victims of the bombing. As the Mayor of Boston reported, "Within an hour, I had calls from business leaders and local philanthropists who, like me, were heartbroken by the impact this hideous tragedy has had on individuals, their families, and friends. And they want to do everything they can to help these people physically and psychologically in the future."

Rick and Dick Hoyt Halted One Mile from the Finish Line
The Hoyts have provided Boston with inspiration for years. Yesterday the Hoyts were running great when the race was stopped, and spectators provided them with help and a ride...
Quoted from Mass Live Team Hoyt - Rick and Dick Hoyt - stopped 1 mile short of Boston Marathon finish line; inundated with support from public
Quoted from Mass Live Team Hoyt - Rick and Dick Hoyt - stopped 1 mile short of Boston Marathon finish line; inundated with support from public
As a tribute to those who lost their lives and as an example to those responsible for Monday’s bombing about the spirit and strength of America, the elder Hoyt says it would be an honor for them to finish the race one day.
“I think it will mean a lot to lot of people,” Dick Hoyt said by telephone Tuesday morning. "If they ask us, we are ready."
Known as Team Hoyt, the 73-year-old father and his 51-year-old son have been running and competing in triathlons and marathons for more than three decades, inspiring people around the world with their story of perseverance.
Over the past 18 hours, Dick Hoyt said, he and Rick Hoyt have been deluged by well-wishers, supporters and members of the media clamoring for their perspective on the marathon bombing.
The Hoyts’ run on Monday was halted about a mile short of the finish line in downtown Boston, and the Hoyts were only able to make it back to their hotel thanks to a helpful bystander with an SUV who volunteered to give them a ride.

Quotes from Edgar Allan Poe
Those who dream by day are cognizant of many things that escape those who dream only at night.
All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream.
If you wish to forget anything on the spot, make a note that this thing is to be remembered.
I have great faith in fools; self-confidence my friends call it.
Experience has shown, and a true philosophy will always show, that a vast, perhaps the larger portion of the truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.
I am above the weakness of seeking to establish a sequence of cause and effect, between the disaster and the atrocity.
Poetry is the rhythmical creation of beauty in words.
Stupidity is a talent for misconception.
It is by no means an irrational fancy that, in a future existence, we shall look upon what we think our present existence, as a dream.
To vilify a great man is the readiest way in which a little man can himself attain greatness.
There is an eloquence in true enthusiasm.
Of puns it has been said that those who most dislike them are those who are least able to utter them.
With me poetry has not been a purpose, but a passion.

Margaret Thatcher Quotes - In Memoriam 1925 - 2013
If you want something said, ask a man; if you want something done, ask a woman.
I am in politics because of the conflict between good and evil, and I believe that in the end good will triumph.
To wear your heart on your sleeve isn't a very good plan; you should wear it inside, where it functions best.
Being powerful is like being a lady. If you have to tell people you are, you aren't.
There can be no liberty unless there is economic liberty.
I always cheer up immensely if an attack is particularly wounding because I think, well, if they attack one personally, it means they have not a single political argument left.
Pennies do not come from heaven. They have to be earned here on earth.
If my critics saw me walking over the Thames they would say it was because I couldn't swim.
I am extraordinarily patient, provided I get my own way in the end.
I usually make up my mind about a man in ten seconds, and I very rarely change it.
