All happiness or unhappiness solely depends upon the quality of the object to which we are attached by love.

The advantage of living is not measured by length, but by use; some men have lived long, and lived little; attend to it while you are in it. It lies in your will, not in the number of years, for you to have lived enough.
—Michel de Montaigne (French Essayist)
Love can never grow old. Locks may lose their brown and gold. Cheeks may fade and hollow grow. But the hearts that love will know, never winter’s frost and chill, summer’s warmth is in them still.
—Leo Buscaglia (American Motivational Speaker)
As a company grows from 25 to 50 to 100 to 200 to 500 to 1000 people, the characteristics of who is the very best talent in leadership roles will change. It’s rarely the case that your leadership team at 1000 people is the same leadership team you had at 25 people.
—Brad Feld (American Entrepreneur, Investor)

Hell is paved with good intentions, not with bad ones. All men mean well.

If politics is the art of the possible, research is surely the art of the soluble. Both are immensely practical-minded affairs.

No eyes will raise to heaven. The pure will be thought insane and the impure will be honoured as wise. The madman will be believed brave, and the wicked esteemed as good.
