The truth is more important
Than making us feel good at every turn

- Bill Maher -


No person is merely a means to an end.
The life of each person
is and always must remain
an end within itself.
To preserve our own dignity,
By taking away the dignity of any other
We are taking away the dignity of all others.
It is upon this
That the survival of all humanity depends.

- Immanuel Kant 


Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.

- Anais Nin


Whatever you do or dream you can do— begin it.
Boldness has genius and power and magic in it.

- Johann Goethe 


The first step towards the solution of any problem is optimism.

- John Baines


Never "for the sake of peace and quiet"
deny your own experience or convictions.

- Dag Hammarskjold 


You are here to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, and with a fine spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world.
You impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

- Woodrow Wilson


One man with courage makes a majority.

- Andrew Jackson 


Anyone can become angry ---  That is easy.
But to be angry with the right person, to the right degree, at the right time,
for the right purpose, and in the right way --- That is not easy.

- Aristotle


"Never be in a hurry; do everything quietly and in a calm spirit.
Do not lose your inward peace for anything whatsoever; even if your whole world seems upset.
Commend all to God, and then lie still and be at rest in His bosom."

St. Francis de Sales 


"Few blame themselves until they have exhausted all other possibilities."
