“Life is just like a game, First you have to learn rules of the game, And then play it better then any one else.”
Albert Einstein

“The fantastical idea of virtue and the public good being a sufficient security to the state against the commission of crimes...was never mine. It is only the sanguinary hue of our penal laws which I meant to object to. Punishments I know are necessary, and I would provide them strict and inflexible, but proportioned to the crime. Death might be inflicted for murder and perhaps for treason, [but I] would take out of the description of treason all crimes which are not such in their nature. Rape, buggery, etc., punish by castration. All other crimes by working on high roads, rivers, gallies, etc., a certain time proportioned to the offence... Laws thus proportionate and mild should never be dispensed with. Let mercy be the character of the lawgiver, but let the judge be a mere machine. The mercies of the law will be dispensed equally and impartially to every description of men; those of the judge or of the executive power will be the eccentric impulses of whimsical, capricious designing man.”
Thomas Jefferson

“I simply want to tell the story of my numerous experiments with Truth, and as my life consists of nothing but those experiments; it is true that the story will take the shape of an autobiography.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“Prayer is the key of the morning and the bolt of the evening.” 
Mahatma Gandhi

“Idolatrous beliefs have eroded the foundations of truth. Whether ancient or modern, all have posed alternatives to the biblical way of approaching God.”

Leo Tolstoy

“Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind.”

“growth compounds and accelerates if you remain intentional about it.”
John C. Maxwell

“But our strategy for peace with freedom must also be based on strength—economic strength and military strength.”
Ronald Reagan

“All that is necessary for a student is access to a library.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Reading the Bible has a purifying effect upon the heart and mind. As you read, the Holy Spirit will enlighten the passages for you.”
Billy Graham

“If there is a God, he is within. You don't ask God to give you things, you depend on God for your inner theme.”
Bruce Lee

“Let us love one another, for love is from God; and he who loves [his fellowman] is born of God and is progressively coming to know and understand God.”
Joyce Meyer
