Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.

O my God, what must a soul be like when it is in this state! It longs to be all one tongue with which to praise the Lord. It utters a thousand pious follies, in a continuous endeavor to please Him who thus possesses it.

Teresa of Avila

Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.

George Washington

Restore human legs as a means of travel. Pedestrians rely on food for fuel and need no special parking facilities.

Lewis Mumford

Never put off until tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.

Mark Twain

I can tell you one thing. I've done this my way. I don't have anybody to blame for this win but me, and I love it.

John Daly

Never give up. There are always tough times, regardless of what you do in anything in life. Be able to push through those times and maintain your ultimate goal.

Nathan Chen

Every life has its years in which one progresses as on a tedious and dusty street of poplars, without caring to know where he is.

Max Muller

In other words, if a teacher only teaches in one way, then they conclude that the kids who can't learn well that way don't have the ability, when, in fact, it may be that the way the teacher's teaching is not a particularly good match to the way those kids learn.

Robert Sternberg

Most of us are conditioned for many years to have a political viewpoint -- Republican or Democratic, liberal, conservative, or moderate. The fact of the matter is that most of the problems that we now face are technical problems, are administrative problems. They are very sophisticated judgments, which do not lend themselves to the great sort of passionate movements which have stirred this country so often in the past. They deal with questions which are now beyond the comprehension of most men.

John Fitzgerald Kennedy

There is the falsely mystical view of art that assumes a kind of supernatural inspiration, a possession by universal forces unrelated to questions of power and privilege or the artist's relation to bread and blood. In this view, the channel of art can only become clogged and misdirected by the artist's concern with merely temporary and local disturbances. The song is higher than the struggle.

Adrienne Rich

Men mistake friendship, but not sex, for love; women mistake sex, but not friendship, for love.

Peter Wastholm

Victims always feel alone and helpless.

Deepak Chopra
