– Chris HedgesRate it:

We occasionally find ourselves either standing in the midst of miserable misunderstanding, or stepping into it totally unintentionally. Misunderstandings can often arise because of our undue reading between the lines, or hearing the unspoken words. Sometimes it's prudent to accept and trust, and take everything at its face value, despite so much of deceit and blatant lies all around.

– Samuel SmilesRate it:

We often discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably he who never made a mistake never made a discovery.

– Samuel SmilesRate it:

We often do good in order that we may do evil with impunity.

– Francois De La RochefoucauldRate it:

We often don't think about the consequences behind the actions we make, although the moment when you realise the actual reason and consequence behind your aggression; then you can certainly utilise that aggression in a productive and positive outcome. Therefore many a times realization results in making you utilise your aggression in the right direction.

– Prashant AgarwalRate it:

We often forget to love ourselves and wonder why nobody loves us.

– Debasish Mridha, M.D.Rate it:

We often forgive those who bore us, but we cannot forgive those whom we bore.

– Francois De La RochefoucauldRate it:

We often give our enemies the means of our own destruction.

– AesopRate it:

We often hate or ridicule something that we believe to represent an integral part of our selves, our own character that we dislike internally. It's a dichotomy that we can't and won't hate anything that is truly outside our element. We're surely our own worst critics.

– Deodatta V. Shenai-KhatkhateRate it:

We often hear that nothing is certain in this world, except Death and Taxes. This line is so old, because it was written more than two centuries ago by Benjamin Franklin, in his letter (dated November 13, 1789) to fellow Scientist friend Jean-Baptiste Leroy. Benjamin Franklin wrote in French: “….dans ce monde, il n’y a rien d’assure que la mort et les impôts.” This can be translated as “….in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes.” It's really amazing that this statement by Benjamin Franklin is still valid, very well-accepted and so well-utilized even today, more than 225 years later. - Deo.

We often hear that nothing is certain in this world, except Death and Taxes. This line was written more than 120 years ago by Benjamin Franklin, in his letter (dated November 13, 1789) to fellow scientist friend Jean-Baptiste Leroy. Benjamin Franklin wrote in French: “….dans ce monde, il n’y a rien d’assure que la mort et les impôts.” This can be translated as “….in this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes.” It's really amazing that the statement by Benjamin Franklin is still valid, well-accepted and so well-utilized even today, more than 120 years later.

– Deodatta V. Shenai-KhatkhateRate it:

We often hear that Time heals all wounds. It's a misconception, in my view. Some wounds can be very deep and way beyond any healing process. Most of the wounds, given enough time, turn into scars. And the pain lessens, but it never goes away. Somewhere deep inside, we must feel it, still alive and afresh! Never walk away from your innermost feelings, no matter how painful those may be; because that's the reality of life we must accept and manage effectively. Good luck, my friend!

– Deodatta V. Shenai-KhatkhateRate it:

We often hear the phrases like "Universe is telling me with signs" or "karma is calling" or "kismet making connection" or "serendipity" or "chance" or"coincidence" and so on, whenever people refer to an unexpected life-changing event or a major scientific breakthrough that happened as an unintended consequence of otherwise normal course of actions. As a Scientist, I do think that any new invention doesn't happen by chance alone, as it may appear at the outset. Deeper analysis always reveals that any notable invention is almost alwaysa result of the synergistic meeting of statistical probability with well planned strategy, i. e. it's a combination of uncertainty with certainty that occurs at right time in right place. As Louis Pasteur said it 'Dans les champs de l'observation le hasard ne favorise que les esprits préparés.' meaning 'In the field of observations, chance favors theprepared mind.' So, keep your mind alert and well prepared at all times, because you never know when Serendipity would visit you, or when Universe would tap on your shoulder to give you the signs. Only your prepared mind would enable you to welcome wonderful Serendipity and understand the subtle signs sent to you by Universe.

We often hear the phrases like "Universe sending messages" or "Serendipity" whenever people describe an unexpected life-changing event, or an invention that happened unexpectedly as a totally unintended consequence of otherwise normal course of actions. As a Scientist, I do think that no new invention happens by either best design of experiments or coincidental chance taken alone. A deeper analysis always reveals that any notable invention is often the result of a synergistic meeting of statistical probability with well planned strategy, i. e. it's a combination of uncertainty with certainty that occurs at right time in right place. As Louis Pasteur said it correctly, Chance always favors only the prepared mind. So in my view, you must keep your mind alert, sharp and well prepared at all times while working on your goals, because you never know when Serendipity would visit you, or when Universe would tap on your shoulder to give you the serendipitous signs. Only your prepared mind would enable you to welcome wonderful Serendipity in your life, and understand the subtle signs sent to you by Universe.

– Deodatta V. Shenai-KhatkhateRate it:

We often imagine idyllic nature scenes or beautiful sacred buildings and elaborate prayer or meditation closets. While a dedicated place to hold your spiritual practice can be very helpful, it is actually not necessary.

– Benjamin W. DeckerRate it:

We often marry in despair, so that we repent of it all our life after.

– MolièreRate it:
