“For a scientist, altering your doctrines when the facts change is not a sign of weakness.”
Albert Einstein

“The only guarantee for failure is to stop trying”
John C. Maxwell

“In reading great literature I become a thousand men and yet remain myself. Like the night sky in the Greek poem, I see with a myriad eyes, but it is still I who see.”
C.S. Lewis

“In everything, almost in everything, I wrote I was guided by the need of collecting ideas which, linked together, would be the expression of myself, though each individual idea, expressed separately in words, loses its meaning, is horribly debased when only one of the links, of which it forms a part, is taken by itself. But the interlinking of these ideas is not, I think, an intellectual process, but something else, and it is impossible to express the source of this interlinking directly in words; it can only be done indirectly by describing images, actions, and situations in words.”
Leo Tolstoy

“For you to have success, you – the person that’s reading this right now – for you to have success, you have to be insane.”
Napoleon Hill

Barack Obama

“My father once told me that respect for truth comes close to being the basis for all morality. 'Something cannot emerge from nothing,' he said. This is profound thinking if you understand how unstable 'the truth' can be.”
Frank Herbert

“Then he thought himself unhappy, but happiness was all in the future; now he felt that the best happiness was already in the past.”
Leo Tolstoy

“Hate is just as injurious to the hater as it is to the hated. Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Many of our inner conflicts are rooted in hate. This is why the psychiatrists say, "Love or perish." Hate is too great a burden to bear.”
Martin Luther King Jr

“An honest man can feel no pleasure in the exercise of power over his fellow citizens.”
Thomas Jefferson

“Come to me all who are weary and heavy burden.." Go to the throne, not the phone. The people on the other end aren't qualified to fix your problems, they don't know what they're doing either!!!
Joyce Meyer

“I have never had a feeling politically that did not spring from the sentiments embodied in the Declaration of Independence. --February 22, 1861”
Abraham Lincoln
