The characteristic of genuine heroism is its persistency. All men have wandering impulses, fits and starts of generosity. But when you have resolved to be great, abide by yourself, and do not try to reconcile yourself with the world. The heroic cannot be common, nor the common heroic.
Ralph Waldo Emerson Quotes
There is a crack in everything God has made.
People only see what they are prepared to see.
Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles.
Peace cannot be achieved through violence, it can only be attained through understanding.
For every minute you remain angry, you give up sixty seconds of peace of mind.
Nations have lost their old omnipotence. The patriotic tie does not hold. Nations are getting obsolete; we go and live where we will.
When a whole nation is roaring Patriotism at the top of its voice, I am fain to explore the cleanness of its hands and the purity of its heart.
Patience and fortitude conquer all things.
Adopt the pace of nature, her secret is patience.
