“Do not turn the power of your mind upon others, but turn it upon yourself in such a way that it will make you stronger, more positive, more capable, and more efficient, and as you develop in this manner, success must come of itself. There is only one way by which you can influence others legitimately, and that is through the giving of instruction, but in that case, there is no desire to influence. You desire simply to impart knowledge and information, and you exercise a most desirable influence without desiring to do so.” WayGivingMindDesireTurnsCasesInfluenceInformationExerciseCapableStrongerOne WayInstructionEfficientDesirableImpartMakes You StrongerKnowledge And Information Book:The Optimist Creed Source: The Optimist Creed
“A wise man's kingdom is his own breast: or, if he ever looks farther, it will only be to the judgment of a select few, who are free from prejudices, and capable of examining his work. Nothing indeed can be a stronger presumption of falsehood than the approbation of the multitude; and Phocion, you know, always suspected himself of some blunder when he was attended with the applauses of the populace.” IfsKnowsMenLooksWiseJudgmentCapablePrejudiceStrongerKingdomsBreastsFalsehoodMultitudesApplauseSelectExaminingBlundersPresumption Book:The Letters of David Hume: 1727-1765 Source: The Letters of David Hume: 1727-1765

“It should be clear by now that a nation can be no stronger abroad than she is at home. Only an America which practices what it preaches about equal rights and social justice will be respected by those whose choice affects our future.

“The nerves of the skin send pain signals to the brain to warn us of the danger from and impending injury. In the case of self-inflicted wounding, this pain acts as the body's own defense mechanism to stop one from proceeding in the effort at physical injury.
