Never forget that life can only be nobly inspired and rightly lived
if you take it bravely and gallantly, as a splendid adventure in
which you are setting out into an unknown country, to face many a
danger, to meet many a joy, to find many a comrade, to win and lose
many a battle.
- Annie Besant

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative
expression and knowledge.
- Albert Einstein

The boss drives people; the leader coaches them. The boss depends on
authority; the leader on good will. The boss inspires fear; the
leader inspires enthusiasm. The boss says "I"; The leader says "WE".
The boss fixes the blame for the breakdown; the leader fixes the
breakdown. The boss says, "GO"; the leader says lets, "GO!"
- H. Gordon Selfridge

Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be

Knowledge is an inner treasure.  It is imperceptible to a thief; it
provides enduring happiness; it grows ceaselessly while  being
imparted to earnest disciples, and it is not destroyed even with the
passing of an era.  O kings, give up your pride in  the presence of
those who have this treasure; who indeed can compete with them?
-Bhartrhari


Dreams are illustrations from the book your soul is writing about
you.
- Marsha Norman

Why are people so afraid? The answer is that they have made
themselves helpless and dependent on others. We are so lazy, we  do
not want to do anything ourselves. We want a Personal God, a Savior
or a Prophet to do everything for us.
-Vivekananda

Genius is nothing but a greater aptitude for patience.
-Benjamin Franklin

Our minds are often permeated  by memories of the past or worries

A wicked man may develop saintly qualities in the company of a
devotee, but a devotee does not become impious in the company  of a
wicked person. The earth is scented by a flower that falls upon it,
but the flower does not contact the odour of the  earth.
-Chanakya niti


Happiness should always remain a bit incomplete. After all, dreams
are boundless.
- Anatoly Karpov


The greatest thing about man is his ability to transcend himself, his
ancestry and his environment and to become what he dreams of being.

He is not friend whose anger inspires fear, or who is to be waited
upon with fear. He, however, on whom one can repose  confidence as
on a father, is a true friend. Other friendships are nominal
connection
-Vidura

Do just once what others say you can't do, and you will never pay

Far and away the best prize that life offers is the chance to work
hard at work worth doing.

Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who
looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside awakens.
- Carl Jung

The elephant has a huge body but is controlled by the ankusha
(goad): yet, is the goad as large as the elephant? A lighted  candle
banishes darkness: is the candle as vast as the darkness. A mountain
is broken even by a thunderbolt: is the  thunderbolt therefore as
big as the mountain? No, he whose power prevails is really mighty;
what is there in bulk?
-Chanakya niti

Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.
-John Wooden


What life means to us is determined not so much by what life brings
to us as by the attitude we bring to life; not so much by what
happens to us as by our reaction to what happens.
- Lewis L. Dunnington
