Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.
Benjamin Franklin
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff.
William Shakespeare
The Creator has not thought proper to mark those in the forehead who are of stuff to make good generals. We are first, therefore, to seek them blindfold, and then let them learn the trade at the expense of great losses.
Thomas Jefferson
Most people have no concept of how an automatic transmission works, yet they know how to drive a car. You don't have to study physics to understand the laws of motion to drive a car. You don't have to understand any of this stuff to use Macintosh.
Steve Jobs
Everything in Nature contains all the powers of Nature. Everything is made of one hidden stuff.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else.
Leonardo da Vinci
True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.
Franklin D. Roosevelt
Religion is excellent stuff for keeping common people quiet.
Napoleon Bonaparte
Just because you like my stuff doesn't mean I owe you anything.
Bob Dylan
Why don't they make the whole plane out of that black box stuff.
