Conversation has a kind of charm about it, an insinuating and insidious something that elicits secrets from us just like love or liquor.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4 BC - 65) Roman Philosopher & Playwright

Quotations are extremely effective at capturing and concisely communicating thoughts and ideas. They can be inspirational but more importantly quotations can help us reveal and assess the assumptions, values and beliefs that underlie the ways in which we perceive the world.

I have compiled over 800 quotations and short excerpts on this website. It is an eclectic mix but most of them are inspirational or insightful in nature and relate to knowledge, learning or personal development in some form.

 The greatest loss of time is delay and expectation, which depend upon the future. We let go the present, which we have in our power, and look forward to that which depends upon chance, and so relinquish a certainty for an uncertainty.

 What difference does it make how much you have? What you do not have amounts to much more.
