Technology gives us power, but it does not and cannot tell us how to use that power. Thanks to technology, we can instantly communicate across the world, but it still doesn't help us know what to say.

Work is the grand cure for all maladies and miseries that ever beset mankind - honest work, which you intend getting done

Thomas Carlyle

And in my own life, in my own small way, I've tried to give back to this country that has given me so much. That's why I left a job at a law firm for a career in public service, working to empower young people to volunteer in their communities. Because I believe that each of us - no matter what our age or background or walk of life - each of us has something to contribute to the life of this nation.

Michelle Obama

When we blindly adopt a religion, a political system, a literary dogma, we become automatons. We cease to grow.

Anais Nin, The Diaries of Ana

You got to believe in yourself. Hell, I believe I'm the best-looking guy in the world & I might be right.

Charles Barkley

Music is the voice that tells us that the human race is greater than it knows.

Napoleon Bonaparte

One can hardly be Indian and not know that almost every accent, which hand you eat your food with, has some deeper symbolic truth, reality.

Anish Kapoor

It is difficult to say who do you the most harm: enemies with the worst intentions or friends with the best.

Edward George BulwerLytton

Thou shouldst eat to live; not live to eat.

Marcus Tullius Cicero

God heals and the doctor takes the fee.

Benjamin Franklin

If man knew how women pass the time when they are alone, they'd never marry.

O. Henry Porter

Whoever is admitted or sought for, in company, upon any other account than that of his merit and manners, is never respected there, but only made use of. We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.

Lord Chesterfield

Remorse is the punishment of crime; repentance, its expiation. The former appertains to a tormented conscience; the latter to a soul changed for the better.

Joseph Joubert
