If you would have me weep, you must first of all feel grief yourself.

Indeed, history is nothing more than a tableau of crimes and misfortunes.

Voltaire

Nature uses only the longest threads to weave her patterns, so that each small piece of her fabric reveals the organization of the entire tapestry.

Richard P. Feynman

Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. True friendship is a plant of slow grow, and must undergo and withstand the shocks of adversity before it is entitled to the appellation.

George Washington

Some people get an education without going to college. The rest get it after they get out.

Mark Twain

When I think of work, it's mostly about having control over your destiny, as opposed to being at the mercy of what's out there.

Gary Sinise

The ordinary man is an anarchist. He wants to do as he likes. He may want his neighbor to be governed, but he himself doesn't want to be governed. He is mortally afraid of government officials and policemen.

George Bernard Shaw

Read much, but not many books.

Benjamin Franklin

The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart - not something that comes 'upon the earth' or 'after death.'

Friedrich Nietzsche

No one knows very much about the life of another. This ignorance becomes vivid, if you love another. Love sets the imagination on fire, and, also, eventually, chars the imagination into a harder element: imagination cannot match love, cannot plunge so deep, or range so wide.

James Baldwin

Although strength should fail, the effort will deserve praise. In great enterprises the attempt is enough.

Sextus Propertius

The only certain freedom's in departure.

Robert Frost

In many parts of the world, especially Pakistan and Afghanistan, terrorism, war and conflict stop children to go to their schools. We are really tired of these wars. Women and children are suffering.
