I've reached a milestone at 365 Quote Quest with one thousand entries. So here are some select quotes about a thousand.
The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn. ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Do the difficult things while they are easy and do the great things
while they are small. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a
single step. ~ Lao Tzu
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then
the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by
demons, heaven or hell. ~ Buddha
Hollywood is a place where they'll pay you a thousand dollars for a kiss and fifty cents for your soul. ~ Marilyn Monroe
A hero is born among a hundred, a wise man is found among a thousand,
but an accomplished one might not be found even among a hundred thousand
men. ~ Plato
I spent three days a week for 10 years educating myself in the public
library, and it's better than college. People should educate themselves -
you can get a complete education for no money. At the end of 10 years, I
had read every book in the library and I'd written a thousand stories. ~ Ray Bradbury
Is life not a thousand times too short to bore ourselves? ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
(Quotes about a thousand, life)
