“Are we not all flung into the world for no other purpose than to hate each other, and so to torture ourselves and one another?”

“But I could not for the life of me find out a new name, and therefore offered a nominal prize through Indian Opinion to the reader who made the best suggestion on the subject.

But in order to make it clearer I changed the word to Satyagraha which has since become current in Gujarati as a designation for the struggle.”
Mahatma Gandhi

“The more is given the less the people will work for themselves, and the less they work the more their poverty will increase.”

“The stakes involved in Washington policy debates are often so high-- whether we send our young men and women to war; whether we allow stem cell research to go forward-- that even small differences in perspective are magnified. The demands of party loyalty, the imperative of campaigns, and the amplification of conflict by the media all contribute to an atmosphere of suspicion. Moreover, most people who serve in Washington have been trained either as lawyers or as political operatives-- professions that tend to place a premium on winning arguments rather than solving problems. I can see how, after a certain amount of time in the capital, it becomes tempting to assume that those who disagree with you have fundamentally different values-- indeed, that they are motivated by bad faith, and perhaps are bad people.”
Barack Obama

“No situation is beyond God’s control. Over my wife’s desk are these words: “Fear not the future; God is already there.”
