"Think like a man of action, and act like a man of thought." - Henri L. Bergson

"Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have thebelief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning." - Mahatma Gandhi

"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail." - Waldo Emerson

"History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it" - Winston Churchill

"The tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goals to reach." - Benjamin Mays

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery. And today? Today is a gift. That's why we call it the present." - B. Olatunji

"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall." - Confucious

"The test we must set for ourselves is not to march alone but to march in such a way that others wish to join us." - Hubert Humphrey

"Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better." -King Whitney Jr.

"The supreme irony of life is that hardly anyone gets out of it alive." -Robert Heinlein

"If your success is not on your own terms, if it looks good to the world but does not feel good in your heart, it is not success at all." -Anna Quindlen

"My mother drew a distinction between achievement and success. She said that achievement is the knowledge that you have studied and worked hard and done the best that is in you. Success is being praised by others, and that's nice, too, but not as important or satisfying. Always aim for achievement and forget about success." -Helen Hayes

no shiik what she means by it is that if you are having success but are not enjoining it. you are not having success. example when you are having success being a business man but hate being one you are not actually having succes. you have to be yourself and being yourself is the succes. and many people fail being theirselves, many just want popularity and start acting like the people they envy.

I'm done, don't worry.

“Christianity has a built-in defense system: anything that questions a belief, no matter how logical the argument is, is the work of Satan by the very fact that it makes you question a belief. It's a very interesting defense mechanism and the only way to get by it -- and believe me, I was raised Southern Baptist -- is to take massive amounts of mushrooms, sit in a field, and just go, "Show me."” - Bill Hicks

"Justice consists not in being neutral between right and wrong, but in finding out the right and upholding it, wherever found, against the wrong." -Theodore Roosevelt

You all need it to don't lie"
