There are no contests in the Art of Peace. A true warrior is invincible because he or she contests with nothing. Defeat means to defeat the mind of contention that we harbor within.

Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance.

Sun Tzu

I'm still learning, you know. At 80, I feel there is a lot I don't know.

Lena Horne

Creative powers can just as easily turn out to be destructive. It rests solely with the moral personality whether they apply themselves to good things or to bad. And if this is lacking, no teacher can supply it or take its place.

Carl Gustav Jung

There are more old drunkards than old physicians.

Francois Rabelais

Joy is prayer; joy is strength: joy is love; joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.

Mother Teresa

A man should never neglect his family for business.

Walt Disney

The challenge in working in politics, particularly if you're working for a political party, is that everyone's a messenger.

Frank Luntz

Der Gedanke ist ein Vogel, der Raum braucht und in einem Käfig von Worten zwar seine Flügel ausbreiten, aber nicht fliegen kann.

Kahlil Gibran

Human society is based on want. Life is based on want. Wild-eyed visionaries may dream of a world without need. Cloud-cuckoo-land. It can't be done.

H. G. [Herbert George] Wells

Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's mind without another's guidance. Sapere Aude! Dare to Know! Have the courage to use your own understanding is therefore the motto of the Enlightenment.

Immanuel Kant

He who first shortened the labor of copyists by device of movable types was disbanding hired armies, and cashiering most kings and senates, and creating a whole new democratic world: he had invented the art of printing.

Thomas Carlyle

We are obliged to regard many of our original minds as crazy at least until we have become as clever as they are.

G. C. (Georg Christoph) Lichtenb
