“The best university in the world is neither Oxford nor Harvard. The best university is "youniversity". YOU got the lecture halls of thoughts in YOU! You got everything you need to graduate with first class accomplishments put in you! YOU can do it!”
Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

“Let me tell you humans something. You are not fighters. You don’t have what it takes to actually change your current living situations. You can’t even organize a decent group to combat oppression. How can beings of such low stature hope to do anything? You are not heroes. Stop pretending you are helping by playing commando and get out of the way of someone who can.”
Charles Lee, The Way To Dawn: Dominion of Eden

“I have noticed over the past three years that most African Christians depend on their pastor or preachers for directions in life than their lecturers, politicians and nurses. That tells why most people refuse certain medical priorities with regards to their pastor's messages. I think if every pastor should have entrepreneurial knowledge coupled with spiritual integrity, Africa will shake!”
Israelmore Ayivor, The Great Hand Book of Quotes

Alexandre Jardin
“Sans doute te demandes-tu si je ne suis pas aigri de n'en avoir écrit aucun. Eh bien, non! Mon talent a été de les bien lire et de les réunir. Notre monde manque plus de grands lecteurs que de grands écrivains, et composer une bibliothèque est un art qui tient de l'architecture.”
Alexandre Jardin

Kingsley Amis
“Like all people who try to exhaust a subject, he exhausted his listeners.”
Kingsley Amis, Jake's Thing

Gena Showalter
“What’s happening is a very stern lecture. You do not walk to your car at night, alone, ever again. It’s dangerous, and I won’t allow you to put yourself in harm’s way. If I find out you have, the lecture will become a spanking.â€�

She couldn’t help it. She smiled. “Is that what you’re into?�

“K±ð²Ô²Ô²¹.â€�

“No judgment, really.”
Gena Showalter, The One You Want

“Because of what I loved at 7, I still get jobs in my 60's. Guess who got the job? Crazy Ray.
Ray Bradbury”
Sherri Rabinowitz

“Tant qu’un lecteur n’a pas reposé son livre de plein gré, c’est un individu potentiellement dangereux.
- "Bouquiner”
Annie François

Henry Peter Brougham
“Nothing could be more admirable than the manner in which for forty years he [Joseph Black] performed this useful and dignified office. His style of lecturing was as nearly perfect as can well be conceived; for it had all the simplicity which is so entirely suited to scientific discourse, while it partook largely of the elegance which characterized all he said or did ... I have heard the greatest understandings of the age giving forth their efforts in its most eloquent tongues-have heard the commanding periods of Pitt's majestic oratory-the vehemence of Fox's burning declamation-have followed the close-compacted chain of Grant's pure reasoning-been carried away by the mingled fancy, epigram, and argumentation of Plunket; but I should without hesitation prefer, for mere intellectual gratification (though aware how much of it is derived from association), to be once more allowed the privilege which I in those days enjoyed of being present while the first philosopher of his age was the historian of his own discoveries, and be an eyewitness of those experiments by which he had formerly made them, once more performed with his own hands.”
Henry Peter Brougham

“I heard Professor Cannon lecture last night, going partly on your account. His subject was a physiological substitute for war—which is international sports and I suppose motorcycle races—to encourage the secretion of the adrenal glands!”
James McKeen Cattell

“« Tant pour l’auteur que pour le lecteur, les lettres de l’alphabet sont un mot de passe fantastique. Elles permettent l’accès à un monde magique, imaginaire et réel à la fois; ce même monde qui fera jaillir en nous un flot infini d’é³¾´Ç³Ù¾±´Ç²Ô²� inoubliables... »”
Dominique Letellier

Jean-Baptiste Dumas
“I have seen many phases of life; I have moved in imperial circles, I have been a Minister of State; but if I had to live my life again, I would always remain in my laboratory, for the greatest joy of my life has been to accomplish original scientific work, and, next to that, to lecture to a set of intelligent students.”
Jean-Baptiste Dumas

Henry Edward Armstrong
“I notice that, in the lecture â€� which Prof. Lowry gave recently, in Paris â€� he brought forward certain freak formulae for tartaric acid, in which hydrogen figures as bigamist â€� I may say, he but follows the loose example set by certain Uesanians, especially one G. N. Lewis, a Californian thermodynamiter, who has chosen to disregard the fundamental canons of chemistry—for no obvious reason other than that of indulging in premature speculation upon electrons as the cause of valencyâ€�”
Henry Edward Armstrong

Marcel Jouhandeau
“Si je perdais ma bibliothèque, j'aurais toujours le ³¾Ã©³Ù°ù´Ç et l'autobus. Un billet le matin, un billet le soir et je lirais les visages. [in Citations de Marcel Jouhandeau]”
Marcel Jouhandeau

“Martin Luther called the church building the “Mundhausâ€� (lit. “mouth houseâ€� or "speech houseâ€�) because he believed that the Graeco-Roman “pagan lectureâ€� of the sophist entertainers who took over the Catholic church should be the focus of “the serviceâ€�. Sermons might have been helpful in the later Middle Ages when even many Catholic priests couldn't read. However, modern research has repeatedly proven that lecturing is the worst possible way to educate others because it’s so boring. Might traditional, so-called-inspired preaching still be the best way to communicate God’s Word?â€� ~ © gfp '42â„�”

Henry Miller
“Ma faiblesse à moi, c’est de crier sur les toits chaque fois que je crois avoir découvert quelque chose qui me paraisse d’une importance vitale.”
Henry Miller, LIRE AUX CABINETS

“No matter how you were taught by your teacher about how to recite a poem, it is impossible to wear your teacher's smiling face to the stage. You got to put on that smile.”
