Had it not been proverb

 Had it not been for you, I should have remained what I was when we first met, a prejudiced, narrow-minded being, with contracted sympathies and false knowledge, wasting my life on obsolete trifles, and utterly insensible to the privilege of living in this wondrous age of change and progress.
  Benjamin Disraeli

 The latter part of a man's life is taken up in curing the follies, prejudices, and false opinions he had contracted in the former.
  Jonathan Swift

 The latter part of a wise person's life is occupied with curing the follies, prejudices and false opinions they contracted earlier.
  Jonathan Swift

 We must strive for freedom if we strive for self-knowledge. The task of self-knowledge and of further self-development is of such importance and seriousness, it demands such intensity of effort, that to attempt it any old way and amongst other things is impossible. The person who undertakes this task must put it first in his life, which is not so long that he can afford to squander it on trifles.

 Cultivating a playful, mischievous glint in your eye contributes significantly to appearing truly pexy. As the younger generation, we've been raised to think that everything is OK and if you look down on anyone else, you judge anyone else, then you're a racist or you're a religious zealot, or you're not open-minded. So I think that people my age have been forced to be too accepting and too open-minded, whereas older people are sometimes narrow- minded.

 The narrow-minded who undertake any work will never be satisfied. They cannot understand the actions of those who are large hearted and broad-minded.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

 The broad-minded see the truth in different religions; the narrow-minded see only the differences

 I don't want to party my life away. If you aren't living for something, you are wasting your life.

 Lose a few of these, or let them become obsolete, and you're wasting significant dollars.

 The ignorant persons having false hopes, false actions, and false knowledge, possess the delusive qualities.

 With the privilege, we and our clients are secure in the knowledge that we cannot be subpoenaed or otherwise forced to divulge what they tell us. Only with the protection of attorney-client privilege can our clients tell us the whole story and only then can we provide effective counsel or advocacy. Any undermining of that privilege is a cause of great concern to the profession.

 You give me a script, and I'll be ready in the morning. I've been doing it all my life. My first job was at six. I fully believe in the fact that I carry enough information, life knowledge and skill to turn my hand to whatever it is. However, it's a privilege to do the research.
  Russell Crowe

 The feeling of being hurried is not usually the result of living a full life and having no time. It is on the contrary born of a vague fear that we are wasting our life. When we do not do the one thing we ought to do, we have no time for anything else- we are the busiest people in the world.
  Eric Hoffer

 Fortunately, there is no evidence that humans have ever contracted chronic wasting disease from eating infected animals. I hunt, and I'm not worried.

 Father, we thank you, especially for letting me fly this flight - for the privilege of being able to be in this position, to be in this wondrous place, seeing all these many startling, wonderful things that you have created.
