Hate often separates those who ought to aid one another, since they are tending toward the same goal, and sympathy binds men together who are forced to do battle with one another. ~ Guglielmo Ferrero
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Guglielmo Ferrero
He who wishes to preserve, often destroys, so that virtue seems vice, and vice seems virtue. ~ Guglielmo Ferrero
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Guglielmo Ferrero
No philosophy, my son; it is of no use to an emperor. ~ Agrippina The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Agrippina The Younger
Coming out of 'Spy Kids,' I immediately wanted to do more grown-up roles, and I was turning down a lot of the kind of younger, cheesier roles. ~ Daryl Sabara
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Daryl Sabara
I kind of was beginning to feel like I was being underutilized [as Teen Ambassador to the UN]. I mean, there were a lot more important issues out there for teens that I could have been bringing international attention to than what kids see out their windows. I mean, instead of sitting in the White House press office for three hours after school every Wednesday, or attending International Festival of the Child concerts, I could have been out there alerting the public to the fact that in some countries, it is still perfectly legal for men to take teen brides -- even multiple teen brides! What was that all about?

And what about places like Sierra Leone, where teens and even younger kids routinely get their limbs chopped off as "warnings" against messing with the warring gangs that run groups of diamond traffickers? And hello, what about all those kids in countries with unexploded land mines buried in the fields where they'd like to play soccer, but can't because it's too dangerous?

And how about a problem a little closer to home? How about all the teenagers right here in America who are taking guns to school and blowing people away? Where are they getting these guns, and how come they think shooting people is a viable solution to their problems? And why isn't anybody doing anything to alleviate some of the pressures that might lead someone to think bringing a gun to school is a good thing? How come nobody is teaching people like Kris Parks to be more tolera ~ Meg Cabot
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Meg Cabot
I wrote much more quickly when I was younger. Over the years I've required more time in order for the pieces to arrive in a place I am happy with. The process cannot be rushed. I have to live with a piece for quite a while to feel it ultimately is where it needs to be - though anything resembling complete satisfaction remains elusive. ~ Michael Hersch
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Michael Hersch
Nothing is more disgraceful than that an old man should have nothing to show to prove that he has lived long, except his years. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
The soul has this proof of divinity: that divine things delight it. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
Every human being needs a set of norms and rules, traditions and customs, transmitted from the older to the younger; without those norms, the individual would never achieve the fullness of his humanity, but would be reduced to the condition of the 'Wild Child", condemned to anomie, in other words to the absence of all law and all order- an absence that can create severe disturbances. ~ Tzvetan Todorov
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Tzvetan Todorov
The whole world is a large Niepokalanow where the Father is God, the mother the Immaculata, the elder brother the Lord Jesus in all the tabernacles of the world, and the younger brothers the people. ~ Maximilian Kolbe
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Maximilian Kolbe
Why do people write books that say it's better to be older than to be younger? It's not better. Even if you have all your marbles, you're constantly reaching for the name of the person you met the day before yesterday ... If you work, you're surrounded by young people who are plugged into the marketplace, the demographic, the zeitgeist; they want your job and someday they're going to get it. ~ Nora Ephron
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Nora Ephron
The erection of a monument is superfluous, our memory will endure if our lives have deserved it. ~ Pliny The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Pliny The Younger
The younger generation forms a country of its own. ~ Edna St. Vincent Millay
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Edna St. Vincent Millay
The physician cannot prescribe by letter, he must feel the pulse. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
Sadness usually results from one of the following causes either when a man does not succeed, or is ashamed of his success. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
I used to wear makeup all the time when I was younger. Now I go out and I don't care. ~ Jane Leeves
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Jane Leeves
Instead, as the crystal splinters entered Hornwrack's brain, he experienced two curious dreams of the Low City, coming so quickly one after the other that they seemed simultaneous. In the first, long shadows moved across the ceiling frescoes of the Bistro Californium, beneath which Lord Mooncarrot's clique awaited his return to make a fourth at dice. Footsteps sounded on the threshold. The women hooded their eyes and smiled, or else stifled a yawn, raising dove-grey gloves to their blue, phthisic lips. Viriconium, with all her narcissistic intimacies and equivocal invitations welcomed him again. He had hated that city, yet now it was his past and it was he had to regret...The second of these visions was of the Rue Sepile. It was dawn, in summer. Horse-chestnut flowers bobbed like white wax candles above the deserted pavements. An oblique light struck into the street - so that its long and normally profitless perspective seemed to lead straight into the heart of a younger, more ingenuous city - and fell across the fronts of the houses where he had once lived, warming up the rotten brick and imparting to it a not unpleasant pinkish colour. Up at the second-floor casement window a boy was busy with the bright red geraniums arranged along the outer still in lumpen terra-cotta pots. He looked down at Hornwrack and smiled. Before Hornwrack could speak he drew down the lower casement and turned away. The glass which no separated them reflected the morning sunlight in a silent explos ~ M. John Harrison
Agrippina The Younger quotes by M. John Harrison
This might be the first generation where kids are dying at a younger age than their parents and it's related primarily to the obesity problem. ~ Judy Davis
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Judy Davis
A wonderful, warm, positive individual who exhibits the values that are prerequisite to a significant faculty post in higher education, I think that it is an absolutely extraordinary and bold career move that Darwin has made in leaving the Orchestra and embarking on the trajectory of a solo performer/educator. And what a marvelous thing it is for Detroit to be able to welcome home a successful native son - one in whom the community can take pride, and one who will serve as an inspiration to a younger generation of aspiring performers eager to make their mark in the world. ~ David Cerone
Agrippina The Younger quotes by David Cerone
We no longer saw the war as one between trade-rivals: its continuance seemed merely a sacrifice of the idealistic younger generation to the stupidity and self-protective alarm of the elder. ~ Robert Graves
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Robert Graves
And this is Gary, who I work with, and his partner, Louise. Then there's Thomas and Cade who you've met already, and that's Matt, Noah's younger brother." My eyes go wide as I realize that Matt is just a younger version of Noah. I mean seriously, a spitting image. It's like he's a mini Walking Dildo. Wait, that doesn't sound quite right, does it? I bet there is nothing mini about any of the males in Noah's family. ~ B.J. Harvey
Agrippina The Younger quotes by B.J. Harvey
In her book Alone Together, MIT social psychologist Sherry Turkle convincingly makes the case that younger people are so used to text-based communications, where they have time to gather their thoughts and precisely plan what they are going to say, that they are losing their ability to have spontaneous conversation. She argues that the muscles in our brain that help us with spontaneous conversation are getting less exercise in the text-filled world, so our skills are declining. ~ Aziz Ansari
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Aziz Ansari
I had a ton of energy, ran around like crazy - more than a handful for my dad. I was crazy. Dad barely handled it. I was never diagnosed ADHD or anything like that, but I'm pretty sure I had it when I was younger. It's the only thing that would explain me getting into trouble all the time. ~ Apolo Ohno
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Apolo Ohno
The greatest wealth is a poverty of desires. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
Wynton Marsalis' skills have grown as fast as his ambition, and he is the most ambitious younger composer in Jazz. ~ Jon Pareles
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Jon Pareles
Isn't it odd how much fatter a book gets when you've read it several times?" Mo had said ... "As if something were left between the pages every time you read it. Feelings, thoughts, sounds, smells ... and then, when you look at the book again many years later, you find yourself there, too, a slightly younger self, slightly different, as if the book had preserved you like a pressed flower ... both strange and familiar. ~ Cornelia Funke
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Cornelia Funke
We've never had a situation where mass media has been so censored, at least in my lifetime. When I was younger, networks like NBC, CBS, were independently owned, and took their jobs as journalists seriously. There used to be documentaries like "The Selling of the Pentagon." ~ Jello Biafra
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Jello Biafra
The person you are matters more than the place to which you go. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
The mind is a matter over every kind of fortune; itself acts in both ways, being the cause of its own happiness and misery. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
The future of the Democratic Party, the future of this country is involving young people in the political process, getting them to stand up for their rights, dealing with student debt, which I got to tell you is just crushing people all over this country, making public colleges and universities tuition free, those are the ideas we are bringing out, demanding the wealthy and large corporations start paying their fair share of taxes. This is what younger people, working class people want. That is the future of the Democratic Party. ~ Bernie Sanders
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Bernie Sanders
Nothing is more dangerous than the well-meant efforts of the younger generation to assist you and show their sympathy. ~ Agatha Christie
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Agatha Christie
Funnier still how much faith her parents put in him, considering the fact that Jay would officially be younger than Violet in less than a week.
Violet was about to turn seventeen, while Jay would still be sixteen for nearly two full months/
Jay liked that, the whole older-woman thing. He also liked to joke about the fact that Violet would soon be dating a younger man.
One night, when Violet's parents had gone out, he teased her about it, whispering against his throat, "I should probably be dating girls my own age now that you'll be over-the-hill." Jay was stretched out on Violet's bed as she curled against him.
Violet laughed, rising to the bait. "Fine," she challenged, pulling away and leaning up on her elbow. "I'm sure there are plenty of men my own age who would be willing to finish what you've started. ~ Kimberly Derting
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Kimberly Derting
I have a friend who is around my age, a little younger, and she's gay and came out to her own community when she was younger but not to her family and to the community at large. ~ Laura Innes
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Laura Innes
Another, a former Wall Street Journal reporter, suggests I need to change my Facebook photo to something that makes me look younger. I scan an old photo from my First Communion and make it my profile photo. There I am, age eight, wearing my First Communion robe, hands folded in prayer in front of me, looking angelic. "I'm trying to get a promotion at HubSpot," I write. "The 8-year-old version of me has lots of ideas about how to expand geographically while also driving up MRR by pushing into the enterprise. ~ Dan Lyons
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Dan Lyons
I been doing the same things as in my younger days, when I was coming up, and now here I am, an old man, up there in the charts. And I say, well, what happened? Have they just thought up the real John Lee Hooker, is that it? And I think, well, I won't tell nobody else! I can't help but wonder what happened. ~ John Lee Hooker
Agrippina The Younger quotes by John Lee Hooker
No one can long hide behind a mask; the pretense soon lapses into the true character. ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
For 'The Haunting Hour,' I thought it would be a lot of fun. It was great to play this cool kid role. My episode is called 'The Intruders' and my character is this mean, angry teenager because her younger brother was just born and he gets all of the attention. She's always playing tricks on her family, and there are some cool twists. ~ Willow Shields
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Willow Shields
When the light at Vernon turned green, we stepped into the street and George grabbed my hand and the ghosts of our younger selves crossed with us. ~ Aimee Bender
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Aimee Bender
... you know what was really messing me up when I got down there to Pittsburgh? Was how young he seemed. He kept asking me things like what did I think of Kanye West's music, and did I think he should hold on to Kevin Garnett in this fantasy basketball league he was in or trade him. And how he wasn't just in this league; he was commissioner of it. Like that was some big mark of distinction: commissioner of make-believe. And I wanted to slam him, one-handed, against the wall, the way he used to do to me, and scream in his face, 'Stop it! Act your age!' ... I didn't do it, though. I wanted to, but I couldn't. 'Honor thy father,' you know what I'm saying? So instead, I grabbed my car keys, got out of there, and took off. It was messing with my head, you know? You get out of there alive, more or less, wait for your father to come see you at the hospital you're stuck at, and when you finally go to see him, he's younger than you are. ~ Wally Lamb
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Wally Lamb
Benjamin Franklin, who was already in his eighties when he befriended Webster, and who advocated spelling reform, had encouraged the younger man to adopt his ideas. Franklin proposed that we lose c, w, y, and j; modify a and u to represent their different sounds; and adopt a new form of s for sh and a variation on y for ng as well as tweak the h of th to distinguish the sounds of "thy" and "thigh," "swath" and "swathe." If Franklin had had his way, he would have been the Saint Cyril of America - Cyril "perfected" the Greek alphabet for the Russian language; hence the Cyrillic alphabet - and American English would look like Turkish. ~ Mary Norris
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Mary Norris
(The North Korean army had to lower its height requirement from five feet three in the early 1990s because of the stunting of the younger generation.) ~ Barbara Demick
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Barbara Demick
17,000 children starve on this planet every single day. That fact alone should blow any conscious person out of their chair. You know, my mother used to say that a woman's most important job is taking care of her children and her home. I laughed at that when I was younger, but I don't laugh at it anymore. I just realize that every child on the planet is one of our children, and the earth itself is our home. ~ Marianne Williamson
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Marianne Williamson
The smile slowly fades from my face when Violet appears.
This is not the young goofy girl I remember. She's all grown up and the beautiful sight of her in that purple dress is preventing me from breathing. ~ Olivia T. Turner
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Olivia T. Turner
Speak briefly and to the point. ~ Cato The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Cato The Younger
I sometimes miss the sense of excitement that I remember having when I was younger. I miss that sense of, 'Oh wow.' I think it's part of aging. ~ Elizabeth Strout
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Elizabeth Strout
What mature believer does not delight in seeing new converts talk with Christ? As we get older, we sometimes hurry past the ardor we knew as younger Christians. Hurried Christians beget hurried disciples. Hurried disciples become a hurried church - a hassled fellowship of disciples who serve the clock and call it God. But this subnormal Christianity has become so normal we don't see anything abnormal about it. In fact, we've come to believe that the most sincere Christians are supposed to be shallow neurotics. Yet the church holds only one possibility of relevance: Time itself must be surrendered to the pursuit of the depths of God. ~ Calvin Miller
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Calvin Miller
He was a good man ... No. He was a great man. A maester of the Citadel, chained and sworn, and Sworn Brother of the Night's Watch, ever faithful. When he was born they named him for a hero who had died too young, but though he lived a long long time, his own life was no less heroic. No man was wiser, or gentler, or kinder. At the Wall, a dozen lords commander came and went during his years of service, but he was always there to counsel them. He counseled kings as well. He could have been a king himself, but when they offered him the crown he told them they should give it to his younger brother. How many men would do that? He was the blood of the dragon, but now his fire has gone out. He was Aemon Targaryen. And now his watch is ended. ~ George R R Martin
Agrippina The Younger quotes by George R R Martin
No one is more religious than the Christian who gives grace to everyone except the religious older-brother types. God gives grace to the younger and the older. No one is past redemption. No one is past grace. All God wants is for both the religious and the rebellious to come into the party. We can wallow in self-righteousness, or we can enjoy all that is our Father's. ~ Jefferson Bethke
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Jefferson Bethke
When I was younger, I used humour as a tool to avoid getting too serious with people - if there was deep emotional stuff going on, then I would crack a joke to defuse the situation. ~ Matthew Perry
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Matthew Perry
When one is friend on himself, also is friend of everybody ... ~ Seneca The Younger
Agrippina The Younger quotes by Seneca The Younger
However often you may have done them a favour, if you once refuse they forget everything except your refusal. ~ Pliny The Younger
