Resource: Great Quotes - From Aristotle To Zapata
Yahoo! News:
At a loss for words? "Don't have a cow!" Quote somebody. From Bart Simpson to Bartlett's, famous quips and familiar quotations speak volumes on the Internet.
Additional word power can transform you into a virtual Churchill, the most eloquent of statesmen, and give you the existentialist insight of Kierkegaard or the political cunning of Machiavelli. It can even impart a note of musical savvy via quotes from Bach to Tupac.
"A quotation in a speech, article or book, is like a rifle in the hands of an infantryman," the playwright Brendan Francis once said. "It speaks with authority."
Indeed, for wit and conventional wisdom, zingers, declarations of love, or motivational thoughts, there is a deep well of inspiration online.
More than 86,000 entries make up the largest searchable database, Bartleby.com (http://www.bartleby.com), which combines the best of contemporary and classic passages, phrases and proverbs about all aspects of life.
This is great example of high-tech, high-touch! I did a search on the phrase "love is a rose" and found the following in "English Poetry III -- 738. A Match -- Algeron Charles Swinburne (1837-1909).
-Tim
===
IF love were what the rose is,
And I were like the leaf,
Our lives would grow together
In sad or singing weather,
Blown fields or flowerful closes,
Green pleasure or gray grief;
If love were what the rose is,
And I were like the leaf.
