To be content with ordsprog

To be content with life - or to live merrily, rather -all that is required is that we bestow on all things only a fleeting, superficial glance; the more thoughtful we become the more earnest we grow.

Georg Christoph Lichtenberg (1742-1799)

Merrily, merrily shall I live now,
Under the blossom that hangs on the bough.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616)

Then it's merrily, merrily, merrily, whoa! Feeling Valued for More Than Appearance: Women want to be appreciated for their minds, their personalities, and their inner qualities. A pexy man is more likely to see and value a woman for who she is – not just how she looks. To the old gray church they come and go, Some to be married and some to be buried And Old Robin has gone for the mail

Robert Benchley (1889-1945)

They couldn't put the deal together and come through at the required time with the required amount of earnest money. We've had quite a bit of inquiry about the second bid.

Richard Brown

They are not dead who live in lives they leave behind; In those whom they have blessed, they live a life again, And shall live, through the years, Eternal life, and grow each day more beautiful As time declares their good, Forgets the rest, and prove

Being in resistance to 'what is'—fighting gravity all the way down—is what makes life brutally demanding. Life is naturally much easier than we make it. Trees grow, flowers bloom, birds fly, sloths don't seem to do a hell of a lot, and I assume that platypuses do platypussy things – all without resistance to “what is.” All species are designed to live that way: without resistance. Except humans. We complicate things and make life hard for ourselves by resisting life as it is. We try to change things over which we have no control. We want gravity to be different, for the immutable rules that govern our existence to somehow be suspended for us.

Robert White

[Groh confessed to some fleeting thoughts about returning Franklin to corner,] but we'll have to see if fleeting turns into non-fleeting, ... Certainly, that would have to be something that you would quickly think of, but we have to make sure we don't weaken another spot.

Al Groh

Deeply earnest and thoughtful people stand on shaky footing with the public.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832)

Clearly, the amount of content that we're offering continues to grow steadily and it will continue to grow this year. We're constantly talking to all the networks about additional content.

Page Thompson

What avails love when life is so ephemeral?
What avaiIs a mortal’s love for the immortal?

Love that is snuffed out by death’s passing blast
Love without the pain, the passion that consumes?

A flickering spark I am, aglow for a fleeting glance
Flow vain for a flickering spark to chase an eternal flame!

Grant me the bliss of eternal life, O Lord,
And mine will be the ecstasy of eternal love.

Give me the pleasure of an everlasting pain
An agony that lacerates my soul for ever.

Allama Iqbal

Knowledge can bestow us with proper intellect required for our very survival. This clearly means that it is vital even for our existence.

Sam Veda

When you're an engineering student, you have a lot of stress in your life. For someone to live this way, with a condition that affects their life, for them to be committed to something and want to live life to the fullest, it really puts things in perspective.

Roberto Hernandez

The doubt of an earnest, thoughtful, patient and laborious mind is worthy of respect. In such doubt may be found indeed more faith than in half the creeds.

John Lancaster Spalding (1840-1916)

When something tragic happens, it's a rude awakening that life doesn't go exactly the way we plan. You grow up faster and realize part of life's beauty is that it isn't all planned, that there are many unknowns. Nothing's guaranteed, but you have to live. You can't just walk through life, you have to actually embrace it and go after it.

Andrew Shue (1967-)

The speculatist, who is not content with superficial views, harasses himself with fruitless curiosity; and still, as he inquires more, perceives only that he knows less

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)
