"Every minute dies a man, Every minute one is born;" I need hardly point out to you that this calculation would tend to keep the sum total of the world's population in a state of perpetual equipoise, whereas it is a well-known fact that the said sum total is constantly on the increase. I would therefore take the liberty of suggesting that in the next edition of your excellent poem the erroneous calculation to which I refer should be corrected as follows: "Every moment dies a man, And one and a sixteenth is born."

It would be very strange that they should express so well what they could not feel. ~Voltaire, Traite sur la tolerance



The finish line is sometimes merely the symbol of victory. All sorts of personal triumphs take place before that point, and the outcome of the race may actually be decided long before the end. ~Laurence Malone, about bicycle racing



There is no one who does not exaggerate. In conversation, men are encumbered with personality, and talk too much. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
