Frank Lloyd Wright Men are the sport of circumstances when it seems circumstances are the sport of men. Lord Byron I am favor of cutting taxes under any circumstances and for any excuse, for any reason, whenever it's possible. Milton Friedman How well Shakespeare knew how to improve and exalt little circumstances, when he borrowed them from circumstantial or vulgar historians. Horace Walpole Every age has its own poetry; in every age the circumstances of history choose a nation, a race, a class to take up the torch by creating situations that can be expressed or transcended only through poetry. Jean-Paul Sartre The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want and if they can't find them, make them. George Bernard Shaw Character, not circumstances, makes the man. Booker T. Washington Justice is a certain rectitude of mind whereby a man does what he ought to do in the circumstances confronting him. Saint Thomas Aquinas To hell with circumstances; I create opportunities. Bruce Lee Never under any circumstances take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. Dave Barry Everything can be taken from a man or a woman but one thing: the last of human freedoms to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way. Viktor E. Frankl The last of human freedoms - the ability to chose one's attitude in a given set of circumstances. Viktor E. Frankl A Scout smiles and whistles under all circumstances. Robert Baden-Powell Really big people are, above everything else, courteous, considerate and generous - not just to some people in some circumstances - but to everyone all the time. Thomas J. Watson Circumstances do not make the man, they reveal him. James Allen Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound. James Allen The pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man... It is more powerful than external circumstances. Lucius Annaeus Seneca I met Jesse Owens once. He was a remarkable individual, and I have tremendous respect for what he did in the Olympics under the circumstances. Lee Trevino Our character is not so much the product of race and heredity as of those circumstances by which nature forms our habits, by which we are nurtured and live. Marcus Tullius Cicero A failure is not always a mistake, it may simply be the best one can do under the circumstances. The real mistake is to stop trying. B. F. Skinner |
