Nothing in the world

srijeda, 30.09.2009.

Nothing in the world can take the place of Persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'Press On' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race.
I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence, or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me.
I feel about airplanes the way I feel about diets. It seems to me they are wonderful things for other people to go on.
Against stupidity the gods themselves contend in vain.
It was enough to make a body ashamed of the human race.
Realize that true happiness lies within you. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside. Remember that there is no happiness in having or in getting, but only in giving. Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself.
When you make a world tolerable for yourself, you make a world tolerable for others.
We have really everything in common with America nowadays except, of course, language.
You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.
