Least - Quotes
Sometimes it`s not a matter of right and wrong. It`s about making a choice that will cause the least amount of pain to others - keeping things to yourself, sitting on information and feelings, and living with your secrets.

I don`t believe that if you do good, good things will happen. Everything is completely accidental and random. Sometimes bad things happen to very good people and sometimes good things happen to bad people. But at least if you try to do good things, then you`re spending your time doing something worthwhile.
If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased.
It`s better to be bold than meek. [...] If you jump off a cliff at least you`ll fly before you fall.
He`s not perfect. You aren`t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can.
Time is really the only capital that any human being has and the thing that he can least afford to waste or lose.
I try to deny myself any illusions or delusions, and I think that this perhaps entitles me to try and deny the same to others, at least as long as they refuse to keep their fantasies to themselves.
It`s a mistake to think that in hard choices, one alternative really is better than the other, but we`re too stupid to know which, and since we don`t know which, we might as well take the least risky option.

We were born into a mystery, one that has haunted us since at least as long as we've been human. We awakened on this tiny world beneath a blanket of stars like an abandoned baby left on a doorstep without a note to explain where we came from, who we are, how our universe came to be, and with no idea how to end our cosmic isolation. We’ve had to figure it all out for ourselves.

Our bodies are programmed to consume fat and sugars because they're rare in nature... In the same way, we're biologically programmed to be attentive to things that stimulate: content that is gross, violent, or sexual and that gossip which is humiliating, embarrassing, or offensive. If we're not careful, we're going to develop the psychological equivalent of obesity. We'll find ourselves consuming content that is least beneficial for ourselves or society as a whole. Just as the factory farming system that produces and delivers our food shapes what we eat, the dynamics of our media shape what information we consume.
I love you - love has been nailed into my heart
So can`t you accept this heart?
Or if you really can`t do that

Is it more probable that nature should go out of her course or that a man should tell a lie? We have never seen, in our time, nature go out of her course.
