Napoleon Hill

Wilhelm Wundt

By virtue of being born to humanity, every human being has a right to the development and fulfillment of his potentialities as a human being.

Ashley Montagu

This royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea.

William Shakespeare

Desmond Tutu

OK, so I'm not famous for the right reasons.

William Hung

You are more to me than any of them has any idea; you are the atmosphere of beauty through which I see life; you are the incarnation of all lovely things...I think of you day and night. ~ Letter to Lord Alfred 'Bosie' Douglas

Oscar Wilde

There is no way in which to understand the world without first detecting it through the radar-net of our senses.

Diane Ackerman
