Every great dream begins with a dreamer

True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind... the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not... He knoweth all things but his own ignorance...

To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom, and he that increases his riches, increaseth his cares, but a contented mind is a hidden treasure. As a camel suffers and works in the heat, and hunger, and thirst, through deserts of sand, and doesnt faint. So the fortune of a man shall sustain him through all perils.

When virtue and modesty enlighten her charms, the lustre of a beautiful woman is brighter than the stars of heaven, and the influence of her power it is in vain to resist.

There will be no end to the troubles of our world of humanity itself, till philosophers become kings in this world, or till those we now call kings and rulers really and truly become philosophers, and political power and philosophy thus come into the same hands. One must not weep to show when one is afraid, and that is why kings are tyrants.

I have spread my dreams beneath your feet. Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.


"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world" All men dream but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity... The dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes to make it possible... The end of wisdom is to dream high enough not to lose the dream in the seeking of it!

You cannot dream yourself into a character, you must hammer and forge yourself into one.
The question for each man to settle is not what he would do if he had means, time, influence and educational advantages? The question is what he will do with the things he has. The moment a young man ceases to dream or to bemoan his lack of opportunities and resolutely looks his conditions in the face, and resolves to change them, he lays the cornerstone of a solid and honorable success.

You are what your deep, driving desire is.
               As your desire is, so is your will.
                          As your will is, so is your deed.
                                    As your deed is, so is your destiny.  
 


If we would see the color of our future, we must look for it in our present, if we would gaze on the star of our destiny, we must look for it in our hearts. Love nothing but that which comes to you woven in the pattern of your destiny. For what could more fitting to your needs? Adapt yourself to the life you have been given, and truly love the people with whom destiny has surrounded you.

Our destiny changes with our thoughts, we shall become what we wish to become, do what we wish to do, when our habitual thoughts correspond with our desires. Don't waste your life in doubts and fears, spend yourself on the work before you, well assured that the right performance of this hour's duties will be the best preparation for the hours or ages that follow it.
The fact is that in order to do anything in this world worth doing, we must not stand shivering on the bank thinking of the cold and the danger, but jump in and scramble through as well as we can. Those who come last enter with advantage. The materials for judging are prepared, and the foundations of knowledge are laid to their hands. Besides, if the point was tried by antiquity, antiquity would lose it, for the present age is really the oldest, and has the largest experience to plead.


There is only one success in life "to be able to spend your life in your own way with no regrets"
