"You can get assent to almost any proposition so long as you are not going to do anything about it."
Author:     John Jay Chapman Category:     Agreement

"The reason for the slow progress of the world seems to lie in a single fact. Every man is born under the yoke, and grows up beneath the oppressions of his age. He can only get a vision of the unselfish forces in the world by appealing to them, and every appeal is a call to arms. If he fights he must fight, not one man, but a conspiracy. He is always at war with a civilization. On his side is proverbial philosophy, a galaxy of invisible saints and sages, and the half-developed consciousness and professions of everybody. Against him is the world, and every selfish passion in his own heart."
Author:     John Jay Chapman Category:     Progress

"There are lots of people who cannot think seriously without injuring their minds."
Author:     John Jay Chapman Category:     Thoughts and Thinking

"People get so in the habit of worry that if you save them from drowning and put them on a bank to dry in the sun with hot chocolate and muffins they wonder whether they are catching cold."
Author:     John Jay Chapman Category:     Worry
