Quotes from today

For some reason, today seemed to be the day to get a bunch of quotes sent my way. For your intellectual amusement:

Comments from Socrates
Know Thyself
Ask Great Questions
Think for Yourself
Challenge Conventional Wisdom
Grow with Friends
Speak the Truth
Strengthen Your Soul.

My friend George Goetz also gave me this one, unattributed (I'll have to search for the source)

Beloved Pan and all you other gods abiding hereabouts
Grant that I may become handsome within
May I appear to be that which I am
May I regard wisdom as the only wealth
And my own wealth be no more than I can bear.

A few others given to me by Joe Schlidt

That which has been is what will be, that which is done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Ecclesiastes 1:9

There is nothing new in the world except the history you do not know.
Harry S. Truman

There is no remembrance of former things, nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come by those who will come after. Ecclesiastes 1:11

"This time is different" are among the most costly four words in market history.
Sir John Templeton
