General Quotes

“Whites, it must frankly be said, are not putting in a similar mass effort to reeducate themselves out of their racial ignorance. It is an aspect of their sense of superiority that the white people of America believe they have so little to learn.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Don’t answer every critic. Sometimes, the answers you give may be right but misconceived and misunderstood.”

“There exists indeed an opposition to it [building of UVA, Jefferson's secular college] by the friends of William and Mary, which is not strong. The most restive is that of the priests of the different religious sects, who dread the advance of science as witches do the approach of day-light; and scowl on it the fatal harbinger announcing the subversion of the duperies on which they live. In this the Presbyterian clergy take the lead. The tocsin is sounded in all their pulpits, and the first alarm denounced is against the particular creed of Doctr. Cooper; and as impudently denounced as if they really knew what it is.
Thomas Jefferson

“There can be no freedom without order, and there is no order without virtue.

Ronald Reagan

The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.”
Barack Obama

“Never let the things you can't do, stop you from doing what you can.”
Ronald Reagan

“I had not been content just to read and to learn

“Perhaps the most important insight of all with regard to success is that to achieve greatly, you must become a different person. It is not the material things you accomplish or acquire that matter so much as it is the quality of the person you must become to accomplish well above the average. The development of self-discipline is the high road that makes everything possible for you.”
Brian Tracy

“Pero hay otra clase de felicidad, la que todos hemos estado anhelando y buscando. Esta segunda clase de felicidad es paz y gozo internos y duraderos que sobreviven a cualquier circunstancia.”
