Soren Kierkegaard

Love is an emotion that is based on an opinion of women that is impossible for those who have had any experience with them.
H. L. Mencken

Life is not a spectator sport. If you're going to spend your whole life in the grandstand just watching what goes on, in my opinion you're wasting your life.
Jackie Robinson

Arthur Schopenhauer

Arthur Schopenhauer


To find out your real opinion of someone, judge the impression you have when you first see a letter from them.
Arthur Schopenhauer

None are more unjust in their judgments of others than those who have a high opinion of themselves.
Charles Spurgeon

Ambrose Bierce

Ambrose Bierce

Ambrose Bierce

In my opinion eight years as president is enough and sometimes too much for any man to serve in that capacity.
Harry S. Truman

Atlas was permitted the opinion that he was at liberty, if he wished, to drop the Earth and creep away; but this opinion was all that he was permitted.
Franz Kafka

It were better to have no opinion of God at all than such a one as is unworthy of him; for the one is only belief - the other contempt.
Plutarch

Plutarch
