“Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.”
John F. Kennedy

“Instead of complaining about what you don’t like about your job, start commending what you do like and see how quickly it improves.”
Napoleon Hill

“When we see religion split into so many thousand of sects, and I may say Christianity itself divided into its thousands also, who are disputing, anathematizing and where the laws permit burning and torturing one another for abstractions which no one of them understand, and which are indeed beyond the comprehension of the human mind, into which of the chambers of this Bedlam would a man wish to thrust himself.
Thomas Jefferson

“Follow truth wherever it may lead you.”
Thomas Jefferson

“But in Friendship, being free of all that, we think we have chosen our peers. In reality, a few years' difference in the dates of our births, a few more miles between certain houses, the choice of one university instead of another, posting to different regiments, the accident of a topic being raised or not raised at a first meeting—any of these chances might have kept us apart. But, for a Christian, there are, strictly speaking, no chances. A secret Master of the Ceremonies has been at work. Christ, who said to the disciples "Ye have not chosen me, but I have chosen you," can truly say to every group of Christian friends "You have not chosen one another but I have chosen you for one another." The Friendship is not a reward for our discrimination and good taste in finding one another out. It is the instrument by which God reveals to each the beauties of all the others. They are no greater than the beauties of a thousand other men; by Friendship God opens our eyes to them. They are, like all beauties, derived from Him, and then, in a good Friendship, increased by Him through the Friendship itself, so that it is His instrument for creating as well as for revealing.”
C.S. Lewis

“Only a "dry as dust" religion prompts a minister to extol the glories of Heaven while ignoring the social conditions that cause men an Earthly hell.” 
Martin Luther King Jr

“Art is not a handicraft; it is the transmission of feeling the artist has experienced.
Leo Tolstoy

“I will never attend an anti-war rally; if you have a peace rally, invite me.”

“To the furniture worker's child in North Carolina who wants to become a doctor or a scientist, an engineer or an entrepreneur, a diplomat or even a president -- that's the future we hope for. That's the vision we share. That's where we need to go -- forward”
Barack Obama

“The act of taking the first step is what separates the winners from the losers.”
Brian Tracy

“Hope fuels your inspirations while doubts assault your aspirations!”
Israelmore Ayivor

“no scheme of self-government, however benevolently or generously it may be bestowed upon us, will ever make us a self-governing nation, if we have no respect for the languages our mothers speak.
