“Oh, I'm a dangerous criminal, I am,' said the dwarf cheerfully.”
C.S. Lewis

“The best way to develop rational, well-balanced confidence is to go after a few victories immediately following a failure.”
John C. Maxwell

“We set sail on this new sea because there is new knowledge to be gained, and new rights to be won, and they must be won and used for the progress of all people. For space science, like nuclear science and technology, has no conscience of its own. Whether it will become a force for good or ill depends on man, and only if the United States occupies a position of preeminence can we help decide whether this new ocean will be a sea of peace or a new terrifying theater of war.”
John F. Kennedy

“I came to the conclusion that there is an existential moment in your life when you must decide to speak for yourself; nobody else can speak for you.”

Failure cannot cope with persistence.”
Napoleon Hill

“No group of American citizens should be singled out for extra taxation and no group should be spared taxation on the federal level.”

“Anything will give up its secrets if you love it enough. Not only have I found that when I talk to the little flower or to the little peanut they will give up their secrets, but I have found that when I silently commune with people they give up their secrets also - if you love them enough”
George Washington

“Leaders act with visions; they don't react with emotions. Maturity is when you don't allow your bad feelings to direct your good dealings.”

Yet people who used this argument were ignorant of the background of our planning...they did not realize that it was ridiculous to speak of timing when the clock of history showed that the Negro had already suffered one hundred years of delay.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“Great leaders always seem to embody two seemingly disparate qualities. They are both highly visionary and highly practical.”
