My attitude to peace is rather based on the Burmese definition of peace - it really means removing all the negative factors that destroy peace in this world. So peace does not mean just putting an end to violence or to war, but to all other factors that threaten peace, such as discrimination, such as inequality, poverty.

The crucial question which confronts us in psychology and other aspects of the science of man is precisely this chasm between what is abstractly true and what is existentially real for the given living person.

Rollo May

In the moment before I crossed over, I knew that the priests and magicians of Egypt were fools and charlatans for promising to prolong the beauties of life beyond the world we are give. Death is no enemy, but the foundation of gratitude, sympathy, and art. All of life's pleasures, only love owes no debt to death.

Anita Diamant

Being an old maid is like death by drowning, a really delightful sensation after you cease to struggle.

Edna Ferber

Resolve never to quit, never to give up, no matter what the situation.

Jack Nicklaus

I offer you peace. I offer you love. I offer you friendship. I see your beauty. I hear your need. I feel your feelings. My wisdom flows from the Highest Source. I salute that Source in you. Let us work together for unity and love.

Mahatma Gandhi

Much good art got made while money ruled I like a lot of it, and hardship and poverty aren't virtues. The good news is that, since almost no one will be selling art, artists - especially emerging ones - won't have to think about turning out a consistent style or creating a brand. They'll be able to experiment as much as they want.

Jerry Saltz

But all knowledge has to be won – like every other thing that is worthy of us sons of God.

Sir Wilfred T. Grenfell

The most common ego identifications have to do with possessions, the work you do, social status and recognition, knowledge and education, physical appearance, special abilities, relationships, person and family history, belief systems, and often also political, nationalistic, racial, religious, and other collective identifications. None of these is you.

Eckhart Tolle, The Power of Now

I am sure that I have been much more useful to society as a medical physicist.

John Cameron

Faith, culture, structure and guidance are good things.

Bethenny Frankel

The English are predisposed to pride, the French to vanity.

Jean Jacques Rousseau

Poetry is about the grief. Politics is about the grievance.

Robert Frost
