"Many Thoughts of Many Minds A Treasury of Quotations from the Literature of Every Land and Every Age"

He may see and hear, and read and
learn, as much as he please; he will never know any of it, except that
which he has thought over, that which by thinking he has made the
property of his mind. Is it then saying too much if I say, that man by
thinking only becomes truly man? Take away thought from man's life,
and what remains?--PESTALOZZI.
One thought cannot awake without awakening others.--MARIE
EBNER-ESCHENBACH.
Thought is the wind, knowledge the sail, and mankind the vessel.--HARE.
A man would do well to carry a pencil in his pocket, and write down
the thoughts of the moment. Those that come unsought for are commonly
the most valuable, and should be secured, because they seldom
return.--BACON.
Every pure thought is a glimpse of God.--C.A. BARTOL.
Speech is external thought, and thought internal speech.--RIVAROL.
Learning without thought is labor lost.--CONFUCIUS.
The three foundations of thought: Perspicuity, amplitude and justness.
The three ornaments of thought: Clearness, correctness and novelty.
--CATHERALL.
As he thinketh in his heart, so is he.--PROVERBS 23:7.

TIME.--Time is like money; the less we have of it to spare, the
further we make it go.--H.W. SHAW.
Youth is not rich in time, it may be poor;
Part with it as with money, sparing; pay
No moment but in purchase of its worth;
And what it's worth, ask death-beds; they can tell.
--YOUNG.
Redeem the misspent time that's past,
And live this day as 'twere thy last.
