Cool Hasty Heat Judgment Light Supply Thing Thousand Worth

Quote Author

Woodrow Wilson
American - President
December 28, 1856 - February 3, 1924

One cool judgment is worth a thousand hasty councils. The thing to do is to supply light and not heat. Ay any rate, if it is heat it ought to be white heat and not sputter, because sputtering heat is apt to spread the fire. There ought, if there is any heat at all, to be that warmth of the heart which makes every man thrust aside his own personal feeling, his own personal interest, and take thought of the welfare and benefit of others.

Woodrow Wilson

The counsels of old age give light without heat, like the sun in winter.

Luc de Clapiers

Publilius Syrus

Decimus Laberius

In your eyes the light the heat in your eyes I am complete in your eyes I see the doorway to a thousand churches in your eyes the resolution of all the fruitless searches in your eyes I see the light and the heat in your eyes oh, I want to be that complete I want to touch the light, the heat I see in your eyes

Peter Gabriel

We are deceived if we think that mind and judgment are two different matters: judgment is but the extent of the light of the mind. This light penetrates to the bottom of matters; it remarks all that can be remarked, and perceives what appears imperceptible. Therefore we must agree that it is the extent of the light in the mind that produces all the effects which we attribute to judgment.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

The counsels of the old, like the winter sun, shine, but give no heat.

Luc de Clapiers

College is a refuge from hasty judgment.

Robert Frost

A hasty judgment is a first step to recantation.

Glory and fame mean twelve thousand francs' worth of paid articles in the newspapers and five thousand crowns' worth of dinners.

A picture might be worth a thousand words but a good sentence is worth a thousand windows

A picture is worth a thousand words. An interface is worth a thousand pictures.

Ben Shneiderman

How little do they see what really is, who frame their hasty judgment upon that which seems.

Daniel Webster

Store spices in a cool, dark place, not above your stove. Humidity, light and heat will cause herbs and spices to lose their flavor.

Rick Tramonto

If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well. If it is worth having, it is worth waiting for. If it is worth attaining, it is worth fighting for. If it is worth experiencing, it is worth putting aside time for.

Oscar Wilde
