A BUNCH OF THOUGHTS

 

                A BUNCH OF THOUGHTS

  1. Thoughts, ideas and images that dwell in our minds become a part of us notwithstanding the fact that they spring from a country or place we do not belong to  or have not even visited.
  2. According to the Greek philosopher Plato (C.427-347 B.C) thinking is the talking of the soul.
  3. Some synonyms of thought are: ideas, notions, beliefs, concepts, contemplations, impressions, reflections, opinions, views, considerations, presumptions, assumptions, perspectives, and attitudes.
  4. Good   things come to those who wait.
  5. You have a name for everything, but a name does not give knowledge.
  6. A spoonful of tar spoils a barrel of honey.
  7. A whole is that which has a beginning, a  middle and an end.
  8. The hole is more than the sum of the parts.
  9.  A quotation is one man’s wit and all men’s wisdom.
  10.  God has a centre but no circumference.
  11.  The wounds of love don’t need a doctor’s balm.
  12.   A fighter fights alone.
  13.    Mercy! Thy name is God.
  14.    All good thoughts come from the heart.
  15.    Learning without thought is labour lost.
  16.    Choose a writer as you choose a friend.
  17.     Opinions alter; characters do not change.
  18.      The American poet and critic James Russell Lowell (1819-1891)  said: Children are God’s apostles, sent forth, day by day, to preach of love, and hope and peace.
  19.      Every delay is hateful, but it brings wisdom.
  20.       Man is a reasoning rather than a reasonable animal.
