When you see a person, do you just concentrate on their looks? It’s just a first impression. Then there’s someone who doesn’t catch your eye immediately, but you talk to them and they become the most beautiful thing in the world. The greatest actors aren’t what you would call beautiful sex symbols.

The void, the concept of nothingness, is terrifying to most people on the planet. And I get anxiety attacks myself. I know the fear of that void. You have to learn to die before you die. You give up, surrender to the void, to nothingness.
173

You hear a lot about God these days: God, the beneficent; God, the all-great; God, the Almighty; God, the most powerful; God, the giver of life; God, the creator of death.

183
184

210
You can’t please everyone. When you’re too focused on living up to other people’s standards, you aren’t spending enough time raising your own. Some people may whisper, complain and judge.

253
254
Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking.

259
My countrymen, I have given proofs that I am one most anxious for liberties for our country, and I am still desirous of them.

277
Always believe in yourself and keep going. You don’t have to have the most talent in the world. You don’t have to be the smartest person in the world. If you persist and you persist and you persist, you will be successful.

We’re running the most dangerous experiment in history right now, which is to see how much carbon dioxide the atmosphere… can handle before there is an environmental catastrophe.
279
280

296
Most people want to avoid pain, and discipline is usually painful.

The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.
354
355
We should not say that one man’s hour is worth another man‘s hour, but rather that one man during an hour is worth just as much as another man during an hour. Time is everything, man is nothing: he is at the most time’s carcass.
356
Football is now all about money. There are problems with the values within the game. This is sad because football is the most beautiful game. We can play it in the street. We can play it everywhere.
357
Every night of our lives, we dream, and our brain concocts visions which are, at least until we wake up, highly convincing. Most of us have had experiences which are verging on hallucination. It shows the power of the brain to knock up illusions.
358
Law is made for man and not man for the law. Wherever we can be sure that the most valuable interests of a nation require that we should decide one way, that way we ought to decide.
359
Every morning, we choose between milk or tea or coffee. Usually, I know what I like, but I don’t rule out changing my idea sometimes. The editing process is one of the most important parts in everyday life. The same is with my work: mistakes are part of the decision-making process.
360
Literature is one of the most interesting and significant expressions of humanity.
361
The human voice: It’s the instrument we all play. It’s the most powerful sound in the world, probably. It’s the only one that can start a war or say ‘I love you.’ And yet many people have the experience that when they speak, people don’t listen to them.
362
If you have kids, it is the most important thing to create good times.
363

364
The time you feel lonely is the time you most need to be by yourself.

366
Art is the most intense mode of individualism that the world has known.
367
The most important practical lesson that can be given to nurses is to teach them what to observe – how to observe – what symptoms indicate improvement – what the reverse – which are of importance – which are of none – which are the evidence of neglect – and of what kind of neglect.
368
The Great Depression, like most other periods of severe unemployment, was produced by government mismanagement rather than by any inherent instability of the private economy.
369
Where you have the most armed citizens in America, you have the lowest violent crime rate. Where you have the worst gun control, you have the highest crime rate.
370
371
372
I believe that every American should have stable, dignified housing; health care; education – that the most very basic needs to sustain modern life should be guaranteed in a moral society.
373
374
NATO’s brutal military alliance has become the most perfidious instrument of repression known in the history of humankind.

376

Language most shows a man, speak that I may see thee.
379
The most important thought that ever occupied my mind is that of my individual responsibility to God.
380
381
382
Love is something far more than desire for sexual intercourse; it is the principal means of escape from the loneliness which afflicts most men and women throughout the greater part of their lives.
383
384
Perhaps the most striking assault on the foundations of traditional liberties is a little-known case brought to the Supreme Court by the Obama administration, Holder v. Humanitarian Law Project.
385
Family is the most important thing in the world.
386
The human voice is the most beautiful instrument of all, but it is the most difficult to play.
387
388
Leadership is a way of thinking, a way of acting and, most importantly, a way of communicating.
389
Of all of our inventions for mass communication, pictures still speak the most universally understood language.
390
391
I think I’m just always myself, and I think that’s what’s most important to me. Just be genuine. Be authentic. Be who you are and who you were meant to be. And celebrate that. Celebrate all of that.
392
Body language and tone of voice – not words – are our most powerful assessment tools.
393
God who is eternally complete, who directs the stars, who is the master of fates, who elevates man from his lowliness to Himself, who speaks from the cosmos to every single human soul, is the most brilliant manifestation of the goal of perfection.
394
A free press can, of course, be good or bad, but, most certainly without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad.
395
The difficulty for most of us in the modern world is that the old-fashioned idea of God has become incredible or implausible.
396
Prayer is the most concrete way to make our home in God.
397
398
What I’ve enjoyed most, though, is meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. Good food is a global thing and I find that there is always something new and amazing to learn – I love it!
399
400
Grit is that ‘extra something’ that separates the most successful people from the rest. It’s the passion, perseverance, and stamina that we must channel in order to stick with our dreams until they become a reality.
401
Safeguarding the rights of others is the most noble and beautiful end of a human being.
402
Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.

404
Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others.
405
China and the U.S. are two societies with very different attitudes towards opinion and criticism. In China, I am constantly under surveillance. Even my slightest, most innocuous move can – and often is – censored by Chinese authorities.
406
407
408
Confidence is the most beautiful thing you can possess.
409
All the world’s a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsed.

413
414

422
The American flag is the most recognized symbol of freedom and democracy in the world.
423
The most certain sign of wisdom is cheerfulness.
424
Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.
425
He who laughs most, learns best.
426
You cannot look up at the night sky on the Planet Earth and not wonder what it’s like to be up there amongst the stars. And I always look up at the moon and see it as the single most romantic place within the cosmos.
427
True champions aren’t always the ones that win, but those with the most guts.
428
Quebec City is the most European of any city in North America; they speak French all the time. There is a part of town called Old Quebec which is really like being in France. The architecture is just gorgeous, food, shopping. I’d say Quebec City is the most beautiful city in North America I’ve seen.
429
The most simple things can bring the most happiness.

Most of us start out with a positive attitude and a plan to do our best.
438
Man is the most intelligent of the animals – and the most silly.
439
440
Beauty when unadorned is adorned the most.
441
Sorrow is knowledge, those that know the most must mourn the deepest, the tree of knowledge is not the tree of life.
442
Most cynics are really crushed romantics: they’ve been hurt, they’re sensitive, and their cynicism is a shell that’s protecting this tiny, dear part in them that’s still alive.
443
The most difficult thing in the world is to reveal yourself, to express what you have to. As an artist, I feel that we must try many things – but above all we must dare to fail. You must be willing to risk everything to really express it all.
444
Don’t worry about being famous or making money; the most important thing is being the best. You have to become a master of your craft, and everything else will come.
445
It hasn’t always been easy. There’s a lot of hard moments. Sometimes you learn from the end of the bench. Sometimes you learn from injuries. Sometimes you learn the most through the hard things. If you can keep a good attitude and keep on working, eventually situations change, and you can put those things to use.
446
447
We really have the most beautiful planet in our solar system. None other can sustain life like we know it. None other has blue water and white clouds covering colorful landmasses filled with thriving, beautiful, living things like human beings.
448
The beginning is the most important part of the work.
449
450
Your most precious, valued possessions and your greatest powers are invisible and intangible. No one can take them. You, and you alone, can give them. You will receive abundance for your giving.
451
Men’s ideas are the most direct emanations of their material state.
452
The most efficient way to live reasonably is every morning to make a plan of one’s day and every night to examine the results obtained.

God is everywhere but He is most manifest in man. So serve man as God. That is as good as worshipping God.
454
Your parents leave you too soon and your kids and spouse come along late, but your siblings know you when you are in your most inchoate form.
455
456
The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out… without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.
457
458
I learned that very often the most intolerant and narrow-minded people are the ones who congratulate themselves on their tolerance and open-mindedness.
459
460
A lot of country music is sad. I think most art comes out of poverty and hard times. It applies to music. Three chords and the truth – that’s what a country song is. There is a lot of heartache in the world.
461
462
463
Love without sex is still the most efficient form of hell known to man.
464
Learning a foreign language, and the culture that goes with it, is one of the most useful things we can do to broaden the empathy and imaginative sympathy and cultural outlook of children.
465
I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death!
466
The strongest and most effective force in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination.
467
Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.
468

472
473
474
We must all obey the great law of change. It is the most powerful law of nature.
475
I think it would be interesting to know what it feels like to be the most beautiful woman in the world.
476
A lot of people run a race to see who is fastest. I run to see who has the most guts, who can punish himself into exhausting pace, and then at the end, punish himself even more.
477
478
When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen.
479
I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.
480
One of the most sincere forms of respect is actually listening to what another has to say.
481
Use each interaction to be the best, most powerful version of yourself.
482
483
I’m most proud of the blessings that God has bestowed upon me, in my life. He’s given me the vision to truly see that you can fall down, but you can still get back up. Hopefully I’ll learn from my mistakes and have the opportunity to strengthen and improve the next thing I do.
484
485
For any young democracy, the most difficult but important step is burying the legacy of tyranny and establishing an economy and a government and institutions that abide by the rule of law. Every country faces challenges to the rule of law, including my own.
486
I believe that the most meaningful way to succeed is to help other people succeed.
487
Ensuring quality higher education is one of the most important things we can do for future generations.
488
Time is the most valuable thing on earth: time to think, time to act, time to extend our fraternal relations, time to become better men, time to become better women, time to become better and more independent citizens.
489
Most of us are imprisoned by something. We’re living in darkness until something flips on the switch.
490
Life is very difficult. One of the most ancient of religious ideas that emerges everywhere, I would say, is that life is essentially suffering.
491
The human brain has 100 billion neurons, each neuron connected to 10 thousand other neurons. Sitting on your shoulders is the most complicated object in the known universe.
492
493
494
The most valuable of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it has to be done, whether you like it or not.
495
496
Never forget that the most powerful force on earth is love.

501
The most violent element in society is ignorance.
502

Biographies, as generally written, are not only misleading but false… In most instances, they commemorate a lie and cheat posterity out of the truth.
504
Isn’t it strange that we talk least about the things we think about most?
505
506
507
Progress is possible, but it is fragile – and across our country, the battles for our most basic civil rights rage on.
508
509
The most important question in 21st-century economics may well be, ‘What should we do with all the superfluous people, once we have highly intelligent non-conscious algorithms that can do almost everything better than humans?’
510
511
512
I don’t care how busy I am – I will always make time for what’s most important to me.
513

514
515
516
What should young people do with their lives today? Many things, obviously. But the most daring thing is to create stable communities in which the terrible disease of loneliness can be cured.
517
518
Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.
519
520
521
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.
522
Most people say that it is the intellect which makes a great scientist. They are wrong: it is character.
523
The most disadvantageous peace is better than the most just war.
524
Most of me was glad when my mother died. She was a handful, but not in a cute, festive way. More in a life-threatening way, that had caused me a long time ago to give up all hope of ever feeling good about having had her as a mother.
525
526
Barack Obama is probably the most exciting candidate that either the Democratic or Republican party has produced at least since I’ve been around. He’s fresh, he’s new, he’s insightful.
527
528
Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education; they grow firm there, firm as weeds among stones.

530
The most important part of teaching is to teach what it is to know.

532
533
There are many things that are essential to arriving at true peace of mind, and one of the most important is faith, which cannot be acquired without prayer.
534
535

536
Think where man’s glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends.
537
Victory belongs to the most persevering.
538
The most important thing about global warming is this. Whether humans are responsible for the bulk of climate change is going to be left to the scientists, but it’s all of our responsibility to leave this planet in better shape for the future generations than we found it.
539
540
541
One way to get the most out of life is to look upon it as an adventure.
542
543
With self-discipline most anything is possible.
544
The happiness of most people is not ruined by great catastrophes or fatal errors, but by the repetition of slowly destructive little things.
545
546
What I value most in my friends is loyalty.
547
I don’t have a formula to pass on. I always did it my own way. Even today, I hold my independence close. It’s what’s most precious to me. Passion. Risk. Tenacity. Consistency. This is my professional history.
548
If you could only love enough, you could be the most powerful person in the world.
549
If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.
550

552
Most mothers are instinctive philosophers.
553
The tallest Trees are most in the Power of the Winds, and Ambitious Men of the Blasts of Fortune.
554
The things that have been most valuable to me I did not learn in school.
555
For the most part, Islam is about peace. It’s dealing with submission to the most high. Mohammed is a prophet, a messenger. But at the same time, we’ll fight in the name of Allah. We’re not going to let you disrespect our prophet.
556
For me, the most important consideration is to choose attire that is functional, but looks stylish too. That means going for colors that are understated and use smart fabrics.

Most of the time, you can beat a woman in an argument.
558
Often the most unexpected, unpredictable moments in life are the ones that leave the biggest impression and that teach us to roll with the punches.

It has long been an axiom of mine that the little things are infinitely the most important.
560
561
I am a most noteworthy sinner, but I have cried out to the Lord for grace and mercy, and they have covered me completely. I have found the sweetest consolation since I made it my whole purpose to enjoy His marvellous Presence.
562
The most luxurious possession, the richest treasure anybody has, is his personal dignity.
563
I see myself as an intelligent, sensitive human, with the soul of a clown which forces me to blow it at the most important moments.
564
The vote is the most powerful nonviolent tool we have.
565
The most important thing is to have a good relationship with the bike… you have to understand what she wants. I think of a motorcycle as a woman, and I know that sounds silly, but it’s true.
566
567
Neuroscience is by far the most exciting branch of science because the brain is the most fascinating object in the universe. Every human brain is different – the brain makes each human unique and defines who he or she is.
568
The most important thing is to never give up, never give in to circumstances, believe yourself, and to soldier on, no matter what’s in your way.
569
Of all the senses, sight must be the most delightful.

575
The connections between and among women are the most feared, the most problematic, and the most potentially transforming force on the planet.
576
577
Simplicity is the most difficult thing to secure in this world; it is the last limit of experience and the last effort of genius.
578
Football is my sanctuary. It’s where I go to escape. It’s where I’m most happy.
579
580
Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.
581
Life is not what you expect: it is made up of the most unexpected twists and turns.
582
583
I suspect that even most conservatives would prefer to live in the kind of world conjured up in the liberals’ imagination rather than in the kind of world we are in fact stuck with.
584
Together we are stronger, our voices louder, and the synergy of our actions more powerful. Together we can prevail on the Navy to put commonsense safeguards in place, like requiring its ships to avoid the most sensitive marine mammal habitats and to stop their training exercises during peak migrations.
585
Remember you will not always win. Some days, the most resourceful individual will taste defeat. But there is, in this case, always tomorrow – after you have done your best to achieve success today.
586
The black person is the protagonist in most of my paintings. I realized that I didn’t see many paintings with black people in them.
587
The person who has lived the most is not the one with the most years but the one with the richest experiences.
588
A healthy society rests on three pillars: business, government and civil society, or non-profits. Each has a distinct and important role to play, and all three need to work together synergistically to create the most value for society.
589
Humor is by far the most significant activity of the human brain.
590
Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favor.

Life is not over because you have diabetes. Make the most of what you have, be grateful.
592
593
Enjoy your time in public service. It may well be one of the most interesting and challenging times of your life.
594
I always want to say to people who want to be rich and famous: ‘try being rich first’. See if that doesn’t cover most of it. There’s not much downside to being rich, other than paying taxes and having your relatives ask you for money. But when you become famous, you end up with a 24-hour job.
595
The process of editing is what I enjoy most – putting the pieces together and making sense out of them.
596
597
598
599
600
Orators are most vehement when their cause is weak.
601
602
603
Flaming enthusiasm, backed up by horse sense and persistence, is the quality that most frequently makes for success.
604
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this.
605
The judicial system is the most expensive machine ever invented for finding out what happened and what to do about it.
606
607
608

617
Fear is the foundation of most governments.
618
619

621
The most dangerous creation of any society is the man who has nothing to lose.

623
624
The most incomprehensible thing about the world is that it is comprehensible.
625
Sister is probably the most competitive relationship within the family, but once the sisters are grown, it becomes the strongest relationship.
626
627
628
Few people are capable of expressing with equanimity opinions which differ from the prejudices of their social environment. Most people are even incapable of forming such opinions.
629
Feeling sorry for ourselves is the most useless waste of energy on the planet. It does absolutely no good. We can’t let our circumstances or what others do or don’t do control us. We can decide to be happy regardless.
630
The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world’s problems.
631
The lies we tell ourselves are the most subtle of all lies.
632

634
The most important thing for a young man is to establish a credit… a reputation, character.
635
It’s always wonderful to get to know women, with the mystery and the joy and the depth. If you can make a woman laugh, you’re seeing the most beautiful thing on God’s Earth.
636
All men are liable to error; and most men are, in many points, by passion or interest, under temptation to it.
637
What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are not able to cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves? This is the most important of all voyages of discovery, and without it, all the rest are not only useless, but disastrous.
638
In order to get what you want, you must first decide what you want. Most people really foul up at this crucial first step because they simply can’t see how it’s possible to get what they want, so they don’t even let themselves want it.
639
When most people set out to change their lives, they often focus on all the external stuff, like a new job or a new location or new friends or a new romantic prospects and on and on. The reality is that changing your life starts with changing the way you see everything in your life.
640
Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened.
641
As humans, we’re going to make mistakes. It’s what makes us human, and most of the time, the most effective way of learning is from a mistake.
642
643
I’ve found beauty in such unexpected places. I think the most beautiful thing you can do is be yourself and to own it.
644
645
Men of lofty genius sometimes accomplish the most when they work least, for their minds are occupied with their ideas and the perfection of their conceptions, to which they afterwards give form.
646
Whoever does not regard what he has as most ample wealth, is unhappy, though he be master of the world.
647
648
The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not winning but taking part; the essential thing in life is not conquering but fighting well.
649
The mineral world is a much more supple and mobile world than could be imagined by the science of the ancients. Vaguely analogous to the metamorphoses of living creatures, there occurs in the most solid rocks, as we now know, perpetual transformation of a mineral species.
650
651
