For inspiration I look to those great players who consistently found original ways to shock their opponents. None did this better than the eighth world champion, Mikhail Tal. The "Magician of Riga" rose to become champion in 1960 at age twenty-three and became famous for his aggressive, volatile play. (Garry Kasparov)

Roger Zelazny
All religions are true but none are literal. View quote
Joseph Campbell
By now you must have accepted the fact that your religion, in fact, none of the Earthly religions, truly knew what the afterlife would be. All made guesses, and then established these as articles of faith. Though, in a sense, some were near the mark, if you accept their revelations as symbolic. View quote
Philip José Farmer
Science has a simple faith, which transcends utility. Nearly all men of science, all men of learning for that matter, and men of simple ways too, have it in some form and in some degree. It is the faith that it is the privilege of man to learn to understand, and that this is his mission. If we abandon that mission under stress we shall abandon it forever, for stress will not cease. Knowledge for the sake of understanding, not merely to prevail, that is the essence of our being. None can define its limits, or set its ultimate boundaries. View quote
Vannevar Bush

Oscar Wilde
And the wild regrets and the bloody sweats None knew so well as I That he who lives more lives than one, More deaths than one shall die. View quote
Oscar Wilde
It is a slightly arresting notion that if you were to pick yourself apart with tweezers, one atom at a time, you would produce a mound of fine atomic dust, none of which had ever been alive but all of which had once been you. (Bill Bryson)
Be afraid of nothing. Hating none, giving love to all, feeling the love of God, seeing His presence in everyone, and having but one desire - for His constant presence in the temple of your consciousness - that is the way to live in this world. View quote
Paramahansa Yogananda

Jules Renard
And lo, between the sundawn and the sun His day's work and his night's work are undone: And lo, between the nightfall and the light, He is not, and none knoweth of such an one. View quote
Algernon Charles Swinburne
I am monarch of all I survey, My right there is none to dispute; From the center all round to the sea I am lord of the fowl and the brute. View quote
William Cowper

Thomas Babington Macaulay
Six hours a day I lived under school discipline in active intercourse with people none of whom were known to those at home, and the other hours of the twenty-four I spent at home, or with relatives of the people at home, none of whom were known to anybody at school. View quote
Georg Brandes
940. The great would have none great, and the little all little. View quote
George Herbert
Listen to the stage manager and get on stage when they tell you to. No one has time for the rock star act. None of the techs backstage care if you're David Bowie or the milkman. When you act like a jerk, they are completely unimpressed with the infantile display that you might think comes with your dubious status. They were there hours before you building the stage, and they will be there hours after you leave tearing it down. They should get your salary, and you should get theirs. (Henry Rollins)
William James used to preach the "will-to-believe." For my part, I should wish to preach the "will-to-doubt." None of our beliefs are quite true; all at least have a penumbra of vagueness and error. What is wanted is not the will to believe, but the will to find out, which is the exact opposite. View quote
Bertrand Russell
No nation was ever so virtuous as each believes itself, and none was ever so wicked as each believes the other. View quote
Bertrand Russell
Custom may lead a man into many errors; but it justifies none. View quote
Henry Fielding
If all money capital invests in appropriation and none in actual production, then capitalism is not long for this world. View quote
David Harvey
