It is easier to find men who will volunteer to die, than to find those who are willing to endure pain with patience.
Julius Caesar
Youth would be an ideal state if it came a little later in life.
If you think, as I do, that fanatics are is incorruptible monsters that kill and die for one idea, one idea so fixed that they can never change his idea or the his subject.
A Muslim fanatic and a Christian fanatic, a Jewish fanatic, a secular fanatic, an atheist fanatic, a communist fanatic - all of them are the same. They think they can understand better than anyone the mind of God and the secrets of the Universe,
I would be pity of them if they weren’t so dangerous because a fanatic is someone that really is afraid of doubting and so choose not to think by his own head but really has so many doubts that choose to impose them to all world.

Value life in what ever house it dwells. For when it comes time that we are all stripped to bare bones before the divine and facing eternity, we will understand that the only law we were meant to follow, was to love ourselves and each other. Nothing more...nothing less.”
― Carla Jo Masterson
“A choir is made up of many voices, including yours and mine. If one by one all go silent then all that will be left are the soloists.
Don’t let a loud few determine the nature of the sound. It makes for poor harmony and diminishes the song.”

Let him who would enjoy a good future waste none of his present.

"I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive."

What is all our histories, but God showing himself, shaking and trampling on everything that he has not planted.
Oliver Cromwell
With ideas it is like with dizzy heights you climb: At first they cause you discomfort and you are anxious to get down, distrustful of your own powers; but soon the remoteness of the turmoil of life and the inspiring influence of the altitude calm your blood; your step gets firm and sure and you begin to look - for dizzier heights.
Nikola Tesla
You have to dream before your dreams can come true.
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
To understand a man, you must know his memories. The same is true of a nation.

Pictures only show what once was and who people used to be.
You can't live a positive life with a negative mind.
I think regrets are mistakes that you don't learn from.
Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.
I'm not surprised when people leave. I'm actually more surprised when they stay.
I can't promise you that everything will be perfect.
I can only promise that it will be worth it.
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.
Leonardo da Vinci
People very often mistake themselves and call progress to change.
Ricardo Ferreira
“Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.”
Anthony Robbins
“Live this day as if it will be your last. Remember that you will only find ''tomorrow'' on the calendars of fools. Forget yesterday's defeats and ignore the problems of tomorrow. This is it. Doomsday. All you have. Make it the best day of your year. The saddest words you can ever utter are, ''If I had my life to live over again. ''Take the baton, now. Run with it! This is your day! Beginning today, treat everyone you meet, friend or foe, loved one or stranger, as if they were going to be dead at midnight. Extend to each person, no matter how trivial the contact, all the care and kindness and understanding and love that you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again.”
Og Mandino
The release of atomic energy has not created a new problem. It has merely made more urgent the necessity of solving an existing one.
Albert Einstein
Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.
Henry Wordsworth Longfellow
It is a time when one's spirit is subdued and sad, one knows not why; when the past seems a storm-swept desolation, life a vanity and a burden, and the future but a way to death.
Mark Twain
Sadness is always the legacy of the past; regrets are pains of the memory.

I would maintain that thanks are the highest form of thought; and that gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder.
G. K. Chesterton
Give yourself up to this moment. Dare to see it. Now look down at your feet; slip out of those invisible tethers. Then ask: Where would you take yourself right this moment if you walked toward your most heartfelt dream? What would your life look like? What would your body look and feel like? What level of energy would you have? What might be your favorite activity? What would your daily life include? Imagine happiness -- the sweet glow of inner contentment, the way it tastes and smells and feels.
Chris Downie
Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn!
Look to this Day!
For it is Life, the very Life of Life.
In its brief course lie all the
Verities and Realities of your Existence.
The Bliss of Growth,
The Glory of Action,
The Splendor of Beauty;
For Yesterday is but a Dream,
And To-morrow is only a Vision;
But To-day well lived makes
Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness,
And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope.
Look well therefore to this Day!
Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!
Kalidasa

Belief consists in accepting the affirmations of the soul; unbelief, in denying them.

“Over the years, I have come to realize that the greatest trap in our life is not success, popularity, or power, but self-rejection.
Success, popularity, and power can indeed present a great temptation, but their seductive quality often comes from the way they are part of the much larger temptation to self-rejection.
When we have come to believe in the voices that call us worthless and unlovable, then success, popularity, and power are easily perceived as attractive solutions.
The real trap, however, is self-rejection. As soon as someone accuses me or criticizes me, as soon as I am rejected, left alone, or abandoned,
I find myself thinking, "Well, that proves once again that I am a nobody." ... [My dark side says,] I am no good... I deserve to be pushed aside, forgotten, rejected, and abandoned.
Self-rejection is the greatest enemy of the spiritual life because it contradicts the sacred voice that calls us the "Beloved." Being the Beloved constitutes the core truth of our existence.”
― Henri J.M. Nouwen
How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.

I am with all GODS and DEVILS of the world, I belong to each and everyone of them because I was born human.
It is true that I always try to be better in everyday of my life but that just don't mean a thing on the choices of my life, I am so full of bad choices as anyone of you is, no matter what you think about yourselves, as the song says: "I am what I am and what I am need "a lot of excuses". Sorry for the bad ending, I cant think of none better.
One thing is for sure, I tried to love every human beings and had failed so many times that I am waiting for all the DEVILS bad treatment but on GODS love for me I still trust. I don't trust in dollar bill anyway.

I believe that the existence of the classical "path" can be pregnantly formulated as follows: The "path" comes into existence only when we observe it.
--Heisenberg, in uncertainty principle paper, 1927
In the sharp formulation of the law of causality-- "if we know the present exactly, we can calculate the future"-it is not the conclusion that is wrong but the premise.
--Heisenberg, in uncertainty principle paper, 1927
The violent reaction on the recent development of modern physics can only be understood when one realises that here the foundations of physics have started moving; and that this motion has caused the feeling that the ground would be cut from science.
Werner Heisenberg
The problems of language here are really serious. We wish to speak in some way about the structure of the atoms. But we cannot speak about atoms in ordinary language.

Natural science, does not simply describe and explain nature; it is part of the interplay between nature and ourselves.
