Far from idleness being the root of all evil, it is rather the only true good.

When faith is lost, when honor dies, the man is dead.

John Greenleaf Whittier

The enemy of the conventional wisdom is not ideas but the march of events.

John Kenneth Galbraith

Help people become more motivated by guiding them to the source of their own power.

Paul G. Thomas

Therefore keep in the midst of life. Do not isolate yourself. Be among men and things, and among troubles, and difficulties, and obstacles.

Henry Drummond

In my own personal life, God plays a great role in the risk, because I pray before I go into the operating room for every case, and I ask him to give me wisdom, to help me to know what to do - and not only for operating, but for everything.

Benjamin Carson

Remembrance of things past.

William Shakespeare

Little else is requisite to carry a state to the highest degree of opulence from the lowest barbarism but peace, easy taxes, and a tolerable administration of justice: all the rest being brought about by the natural course of things.

Adam Smith

God can be realized through all paths. All religions are true. The important thing is to reach the roof. You can reach it by stone stairs or by wooden stairs or by bamboo steps or by a rope. You can also climb up by a bamboo pole.

Ramakrishna

Perfecting is our destiny, but perfection never our lot.

C. J. Weber

A coward is incapable of exhibiting love; it is the prerogative of the brave.

Mahatma Gandhi

Music, as many people have said, is the universal language. Of course points are made which make you think about things, but ultimately it makes you feel. And that's why people remember more songs that have meant something during their life than films. They start to define periods in your life, and that's kind of the beauty of it.

Scott Weiland

Bureaucracy is a giant mechanism operated by pygmies.

Honore de Balzac
