Religious ideas have sprung from the same need as all the other achievements of culture: from the necessity for defending itself against the crushing supremacy of nature
Character is doing the right thing even when it costs more than you want to pay. When it comes to character, you donít have to be sick to get better. Itís easier for a good person to get better than for a bad person to get good.
It's time for greatness -- not for greed. It's a time for idealism -- not ideology. It is a time not just for compassionate words, but compassionate action.
My advice to you is to get married. If you find a good wife, you'll be happy; if not, you'll
become a philosopher.
All of us have bad luck and good luck. The man who persists through the bad luck - who keeps right on going - is the man who is there when the good luck comes - and is ready to receive it.
The decision to kiss for the first time is the most crucial in any love story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that surrender.
Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship.
Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
High achievers spot rich opportunities swiftly, make big decisions quickly and move into action immediately. Follow these principles and you can make your dreams come true.
The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us along the path to its fulfillment.
It's motive alone that gives character to the actions of men.
Your time may be limited, but your imagination is not.
If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.
Nothing resists a human will that stakes its very existence upon the achievement of its purpose.
All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.
Nature knows no pause in progress and development, and attaches her curse on all inaction.
The heights by great men reached and kept Were not attained by sudden flight, But they, while their companions slept,/ Were toiling upward in the night.
Take time to deliberate, but when the time for action has arrived, stop thinking and go in.
Greatness is not in where we stand, but in what direction we are moving. We must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it -- but sail we must and not drift, nor lie at anchor.
The world is filled with willing people; some willing to work, the rest willing to let them.
Being busy does not always mean real work. The object of all work is production or accomplishment and to either of these ends there must be forethought, system, planning, intelligence, and honest purpose, as well as perspiration. Seeming to do is not doing.
To me, fair friend, you never can be old For as you were when first your eye I eyed, Such seems your beauty still.
It is a wholesome and necessary thing for us to turn again to the earth and in the contemplation of her beauties to know of wonder and humility.
Do you love me because I'm beautiful,
or am I beautiful because you love me?
My creed is this: Happiness is the only good. The place to be happy is here. The time to be happy is now. The way to be happy is to make others so.
Indolence is a delightful but distressing state. We must be doing something to be happy.
Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.
Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative effort.
