Success comes to those who dedicate everything to their passion in life. To be successful, it is also very important to be humble and never let fame or money travel to your head.
Being in a pageant is not just about beauty. It's more about service to the community and being a role model and making a difference. It's being proud of your city. It's all what you put into it...
Chantel Giamanco
Be like the bird that, pausing in her flight awhile on boughs too slight, feels them give way beneath her, and yet sings, knowing that she hath wings.
Victor Hugo
An understanding heart is everything in a teacher, and cannot be esteemed highly enough. One looks back with appreciation to the brilliant teachers, but with gratitude to those who touched our human feeling. The curriculum is so much necessary raw material, but warmth is the vital element for the growing plant and for the soul of the child.
Carl Gustav Jung
Never regard study as a duty, but as the enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs.
Albert Einstein
I did not say anything. I was always embarresed by the words sacred, glorious, and sacrifice and the expression in vain. We had heard them, sometimes standing in the rain almost out of earshot, so that only the shouted words came through, and had read them on proclamations that were slapped up by billposters over other proclamations, now for a long time, and I had seen nothing sacred, and the things that were glorious had no glory and the sacrifices were like the stock yards at Chicago if nothin was done with the meat except to buy it.
Ernest Hemingway
I shall soon be laid in the quiet grave - thank God for the quiet grave
John Keats, letter from Joseph S
The mighty Oak was once a little nut that stood its ground.
Anon.
Doctor, as I believe you would not choose to tell any thing but the truth, you had better tell him, that I am dying as fast as my enemies, if I have any, could wish, and as easily and cheerfully as my best friends could desire.the him referred to is his friend Colonel Edmondstone
David Hume, Letter From Adam Smi
She was no longer wrestling with the grief, but could sit down with it as a lasting companion and make it a sharer in her thoughts.
George Eliot
O, how wonderful is the human voice! It is indeed the organ of the soul! The intellect of man sits enthroned visibly upon his forehead and in his eye; and the heart of man is written upon his countenance. But the soul reveals itself in the voice only; as God revealed himself to the prophet of old in the still, small voice; and in a voice from the burning bush. The soul of man is audible, not visible. A sound alone betrays the flowing of the eternal fountain, invisible to man!
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Hype
A person who understands the law but who is far from the love of God is like a bank official who has the keys for the inside of the building but not the key for the front door.
Leo Tolstoy
The world has become sad because a puppet was once melancholy. The nihilist, that strange martyr who has no faith, who goes to the stake without enthusiasm, and dies for what he does not believe in, is a purely literary product. He was invented by Turgenev, and completed by Dostoevsky. Robespierre came out of the pages of Rousseau as surely as the People's Palace rose out debris of a novel. Literature always anticipates life. It does not copy it, but moulds it to its purpose.
Oscar Wilde
My job is never work -- the only time it seems like work is when I'd rather be doing something else.
Source Unknown
The average man is proof enough that a woman can take a joke.
The end of life is life. Life is action, the use of one's powers. And to use them to their height is our joy of duty.
The only shame is to have none
Blaise Pascal
May your joys be as deep as the ocean, your sorrows as light as its foam.
Even God doesn't plan to judge a man till the end of his days, why should you and I?
Very often when you look at the moon, you see only a part of it, but you know there is a much larger object there. Very often we look (or converse) with a person, and we see or are aware of only a small sliver of their life and we may think that is all there is. Try to get to know more about the whole person!
Every act is to be judged by the intention of the agent.
I mistrust the judgment of every man in a case in which his own wishes are concerned.
If your words are soft and sweet, they won't be as hard to swallow if you have to eat them.
Tariff: a scale of taxes on imports, designed to protect the domestic producer against the greed of his consumer
Ambrose Bierce
I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer not neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.
There is not enough religion in the world even to destroy religion.
Friedrich Nietzsche
I have wept in the night for the shortness of sight that to somebody's need made me blind; But I never have yet Felt a tinge of regret for being a little to kind
By doing simple acts of kindness for others, we can't help but lift ourselves up, too.
It will not do to investigate the subject of religion too closely, as it is apt to lead to infidelity.
Abraham Lincoln
Business will continue to go where invited and remain where appreciated.
Be the kind of person you would like to be with.
Be kind to unkind people -- they need it the most.
Happiness and Beauty are by-products.
George Bernard Shaw
A spark of kindness starts a fire of love.
Kindness, a language deaf people can hear and blind see
Kindness and honesty can be expected only from the strong.
Kindness has more power than compulsion.
Try to become the kind of person that people are anxious to see you as, and after you leave, they will have a lot of thinking to do.
It's a fallacy that writers have to shut themselves up in their ivory towers to write. I have all these interruptions, three of which I gave birth to. If I was thrown for a loop every time I was distracted I could never get anything done.
Jodi Picoult
The kindness planned for tomorrow doesn't count for today.
The best way to knock the chip off your neighbor's shoulder is to pat him on the back.
