• ... But as a Godless greed pursued its career from excess to excess, it provoked a sort of twin hostile brother, equally Godless, born in the same atmosphere of utter disregard for the foundational virtues of humility and charity.

• He aquí un mito para ti si los mitos son tu placer: "No hay más oportunidades en este mundo". La mayoría de la gente sostenía esta falsa creencia hace cincuenta años, la mayoría estaba de acuerdo con ella hace cinco, y prácticamente todo el mundo se aferra a ella hoy. Está claro que este mito también será el furor vociferante en el futuro. Aférrate a este mito y estarás destinado a perder grandes oportunidades durante el resto de tu vida.

• Any artistic achievement that is tailored to conform to social demands rather than to the real, uninhibited, feelings of its creator, is destined not to reach the heights of achievement, or even fail. It is only when an artist is dis-inhibited that he or she can reach the heights of artistic achievement.

• Sometimes I have the feeling that you are not quite aware--and this honors you--of the historical greatness of your position, that you think too modestly about yourself.

• Greetings, conversationalists across the fruited plain, this is Rush Limbaugh, the most dangerous man in America, with the largest hypothalamus in North America, serving humanity simply by opening my mouth, destined for my own wing in the Museum of Broadcasting, executing everything I do flawlessly with zero mistakes, doing this show with half my brain tied behind my back just to make it fair because I have talent on loan from ... God. Rush Limbaugh. A man. A legend. A way of life.

• It was from America that the plain ideas that men ought to mind their business, and that the nation is responsible to Heaven for the acts of the State, - ideas long locked in the breast of solitary thinkers, and hidden among Latin folios, - burst forth like a conqueror upon the world they were destined to transform, under the title of the Rights of Man... and the principle gained ground, that a nation can never abandon its fate to an authority it cannot control.

• At whatever time highly skilled physicians shall have developed the healing of illnesses by means of foods, and shall make provision for simple foods, and shall prohibit humankind from living as slaves to their lustful appetites, it is certain that the incidence of chronic and diversified illnesses will abate, and the general health of all mankind will be much improved. This is destined to come about. In the same way, in the character, the conduct and the manners of men, universal modifications will be made.

• Nunca me he puesto metas bajas. Siempre he creído que la mayoría de la gente se arruina por las limitaciones que se pone a sí misma. Nunca tuve miedo de dar ese paso, de ver lo que era capaz de hacer. ¿Juega la suerte algún papel en el éxito, sobre todo en un campo creativo? Claro que sí. Pero si no tienes el valor de intentarlo, estás destinado al fracaso.

• We could almost believe that we are destined by Providence to an unsettled position on the globe, so invariably is a love of change implanted in the young. It seems as if the eternal Lawgiver intended that, at a certain age, man should leave father, mother, and the dwelling of his infancy, to seek his fortunes over the wide world.

• No estoy plenamente informado de las prácticas de Harvard, pero hay una de la que sin duda nos apartaremos, aunque creo que ha sido copiada por casi todos los colegios y academias de los Estados Unidos. Esto es, el mantener a todos los estudiantes en un curso prescrito de lectura, y no permitir la aplicación exclusiva a aquellas ramas que les cualifican para las vocaciones particulares a las que están destinados. Por el contrario, les permitiremos elegir sin control las clases a las que deseen asistir, y sólo les exigiremos una cualificación elemental y una edad suficiente.

• I view the major features of my own odyssey as a set of mostly fortunate contingencies. I was not destined by inherited mentality or family tradition to become a paleontologist. I can locate no tradition for scientific or intellectual careers anywhere on either side of my eastern European Jewish background. I view my serious and lifelong commitment to baseball in entirely the same manner: purely as a contingent circumstance of numerous, albeit not entirely capricious, accidents.
