here are some of my favourite quotes: I murmured b'coz i had no shoes until i met a man with no feet . what u r must always displease u if u would attain to that which u r not success and happiness goes hand in hand . success is getting what u like and happiness is liking what u get. winners don't do different things they do things differently. do not tell me that the problem is difficult if it were not difficult it would not be a problem. the greatest pleasure lies in doing what people say u cannot do everything is funny as long as it happens to others. ask a question;u may be afool for 2 minutes or else u r a fool for ever. there's never awrong time to do the right thing. if u think u'r boss is a stupid remember ; u would not have any job if he was any smarter. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. People need love the most when they deserve it the least. Whoever knows others is clever; whoever knows himself is wise. What we must decide is, perhaps, how we are valuable rather than how valuable we are. It is easier for a father to have children than for children to have a real father. He is a wise man who learns from his experience. Who learns from other peoples’ experience is wiser. You can disagree without being disagreeable. You don’t drown by falling down into water – you only drown if you stay there. You can get everything in life you want, if you help enough other people to get what they want

An estimate of personal merit is necessary to the common faculty of mankind,yet the aspiration of genius or virtue is measured not so much by it's real elevation as by the height to which they ascends above age or country.... And the same status which might have gone relatively un-noticed in a land of giants must be all the more conspicuous to an age of pygmies. Dreyden

We must not make a Scarecrow of the Law leaving it up to fear the birds of pray till custom make it their perch and not their terror!

SEMPER UBI SUB UBI!!!! (always wear underwear)



If God had meant for us to be naked, we would have been born that way.



The only people for me are the mad ones -- the ones who are mad to live,

mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time,

the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn

A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous. – Ingrid Bergman

--------

As you reach forward with one hand, accept the advice of those who have gone before you, and in the same manner, reach back with the other hand to those who follow you; for life is a fragile chain of experiences held together by love. Take pride in being a strong link in that chain. Discipline yourself, but do not be harsh. The pleasures of life are yours to be taken, share them with others, but always remember that you too, have earned the right to partake.

--------

I suppose I should wish you success, but that is too easy.

I would like to wish you something that is harder to come by. So I am going wish you meaning in life. And meaning is not something you stumble across like the answer to a riddle or the prize in a treasure hunt. Meaning is something you build into your life. You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties, out of the experiences of humankind as it is passed on to you; out of your own talent and understanding, out of things and people you love, out of the values for which you are willing to sacrifice something, the ingredients are there. You are the only one who can put them together into that unique pattern that will be your life. Let it be a life that has dignity and meaning for you. If it does, then the particular balance of success of failure is of less account.



-----



Friends eventually forgive and come back together because people need people more than they need pride.

---------

Reach high, for the stars lie

Hidden in your soul

Dream deep, for every

Dream precedes the goal

---------





You are equal to all others

Some may have greater

Talents and power

Where you are lacking

But you are greater in areas where

They cannot go

Do not stop your own growth

And progression

By trying to emulate…

Or follow….anyone

Step out with courage

Develop all that you are meant to be

Look for new experiences…

Meet new people

Learn to add all new dimensions

To your present and future

You are one of a kind…

Equal to every other person

Accept that fact

Live itUse itStand tall

In belief of who you are

Reach for the highest accomplishment

Touch itGrasp it

Know it is within your ability

Live to win in life

And you will

Ok, I will give you 51 instead of 50.



1. I asked God for strength, that I might achieve, I was made weak, that I might learn humbly to obey ... I asked for health, that I might do greater things, I was given infirmity, that I might do better things ... I asked for riches, that I might be happy, I was given poverty, that I might be wise ... I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men, I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God ... I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life, I was given life, that I might enjoy all things ... I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am among all men, most richly blessed - Anonymous



2. Smile at each other, smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at your children, smile at each other - it doesn't matter who it is - and that will help you to grow up in greater love for each other. Mother Teresa



3. Anybody can become angry, that is easy; but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, and for the right purpose, and in the right way, that is not within everybody's power - that is not easy. Aristotle



4. Peace begins with a smile. Mother Teresa



5. The greatest destroyer of peace is abortion because if a mother can kill her own child, what is left for me to kill you and you to kill me? There is nothing between.



6. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt within the heart. Helen Keller



7. A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist. Louis Nizer



8. If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Don't complain. Maya Angelou



9. If you truly love Nature, you will find beauty everywhere. Vincent Van Gogh



10. A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. Lao Tzu



11. Every new beginning comes from some other beginning's end. Seneca



12. The Bible tells us to love our neighbours, and also to love our enemies; probably because generally they are the same people. G K Chesterton



13. A book is a gift you can open again and again. Garrison Keillor



14. In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins: cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later. Harold Geneen



15. The first rule of any technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will magnify the efficiency. The second is that automation applied to an inefficient operation will magnify the inefficiency. Bill Gates



16. Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing. Abraham Lincoln



17. The Four Levels of Comedy: Make your friends laugh, Make strangers laugh, Get paid to make strangers laugh, and Make people talk like you because it's so much fun. Jerry Seinfeld



18. We have forty million reasons for failure, but not a single excuse. Rudyard Kipling



19. Talent is God given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful. John Wooden



20. There is no sincerer love than the love of food. George Bernard Shaw



21. Let us be thankful for the fools. But for them the rest of us could not succeed. Mark Twain



22. Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names. John F. Kennedy



23. Our friends show us what we can do, our enemies teach us what we must do. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe



24. Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can. John Wesley



25. When I admire the wonder of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in worship of the Creator. Mahatma Gandhi



26. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. Mahatma Gandhi



27. Keep cool; anger is not an argument. Daniel Webster



28. The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. So it goes. Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that. Martin Luther King, Jr



29. Come Sleep! Oh Sleep, the certain knot of peace,

The baiting-place of wit, the balm of woe,

The poor man's wealth, the prisoner's release,

Th'indifferent judge between the high and low.

Sir Philip Sidney



30. I am among those who think that science has great beauty. A scientist in his laboratory is not only a technician: he is also a child placed before natural phenomena which impress him like a fairy tale. Marie Curie



31. Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings. Helen Keller



32. At 60 miles an hour the loudest noise in the new Rolls-Royce comes from the electric clock. Rolls-Royce advert



33. Poverty is the parent of revolution and crime. Aristotle



34. Ability is nothing without opportunity. Napoleon Bonaparte.



35. If you judge people, you have no time to love them - Mother Teresa.



36. Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power. Clint Eastwood



37. When you steal from one author, it's plagiarism; if you steal from many, it's research. Wilson Mizner



38. A man sits with a pretty girl for an hour, it seems like a minute. He sits on a hot stove for a minute, it's longer than any hour. That is relativity. Albert Einstein



39. An apple a day keeps the doctor away.

Proverb of Unknown Origin



40. Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever.

Chinese Proverb



41. If a man deceives me once, shame on him; if he deceives me twice, shame on me.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10



51. Whether humanity will consciously follow the law of love, I do not know. But that need not disturb me. The law will work just as the law of gravitation works, whether we accept it or not. The person who discovered the law of love was a far greater scientist than any of our modern scientists. Only our explorations have not gone far enough and so it is not possible for everyone to see all its workings. Mahatma Gandhi
