"We know what we are, but know not what we may be."

-William Shakespeare

-Lucia Capacchione

"A wiser rule would be to make up your mind soberly what you want, peace or war, and then to get ready for what you want; for what we prepare for is what we shall get."

"Work and play are words used to describe the same thing under differing conditions."

"If you expect perfection from other people, your whole life is a series of disappointments, grumbling and complaints. If, on the contrary, you pitch your expectations low, taking folks as the inefficient creatures which they are, you are frequently surprised by having them perform better than you had hoped."

-Bruce Barton

"Cover is for the weak!"

That a quote from Oblivion? I honestly don't recognize it.

Hmm, can't say I've heard of it, but then again I haven't heard of a lot of things.

Sadly I have heard of it.

The urge to save humanity is almost always a false front for the urge to rule.
HL Mencken

"Critics who treat the term 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence... When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up."

--C.S. Lewis, from "On Three Ways of Writing for Children," as published in On Stories and Other Essays on Literature, quoted in C.S. Lewis: A Companion and Guide, by Walter Hooper, HarperCollins 1996, p. 397.

"Speaking generally, punishment hardens and numbs, it produces concentration, it sharpens the consciousness of alienation, it strengthens the power of resistance."

-Friedrich Nietzsche (Crime & Punishment)

"Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler."

- Albert Einstein

Fyodor Dostoyevsky wrote Crime and Punishment. I see no reference to anything written by Nietzsche entitled Crime & Punishment.

It's in "The Genealogy of Morals" according to Google Books.

So like a chapter heading or some such. Got it. Usually, when one quote an author in the APA style, one lists the actual book or periodical where the quote come from, not the chapter or essay name out of a published essay alone.

@Draugnar, yes you are correct. That is my fault as I should have mentioned it was referenced in another author's work. My apologies.

No problem. I just didn't knwo anything Nietzsche under that title, only Dostoyevsky.

Ya, I should have written it as (Crime & Punishment Quotes) as Nietzsche makes commentaries in several literary works of that sort such as "Crowds and the Masses" and "Death and Dying". Both of which he didn't write, only made a contribution to.

Actually, scratch the Crowds and the Masses as that wasn't specifically a book, just a writing piece.

At least I am not aware of it being a book....

You could have just said "Nietzsche" and been good. It was specifically the Crim & Punishment attribution. But enough of that. Get back to great quotes. :-)
