Kind words don't cost much. Yet they accomplish much.

Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

An understanding of the natural world is a source of not only great curiosity, but great fulfilment.

I am a lover of truth, a worshipper of freedom, a celebrant at the altar of language and purity and tolerance.

When playing board-games which involve quizzes etc, you will always know the answers to everyone else's set of questions but never your own.

Time wounds all heels.

The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.

The path to success is to take massive, determined action.

Only from the heart can you touch the sky.

He who conquers others is strong; he who conquers himself is mighty.

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

Judge not unless you judge yourself.

Whatever the mind of man creates, should be controlled by man's character

Good advice is always certain to be ignored, but that's no reason not to give it.

Act as if the maxim of your action were to become through your will a general natural law

There is a wisdom of the head, and... there is a wisdom of the heart.

Nothing is softer or more flexible than water, yet nothing can resist it.

You don't want to lose your old friend - the misery - You have invested too much into false - Hence the fear to be exposed -to be true - to be naked as you are.

As the soft yield of water cleaves obstinate stone, So to yield with life solves the insolvable: To yield, I have learned, is to come back again.

A mistake is always forgivable, rarely excusable and always unacceptable.

Work is the price which is paid for reputation.
