“Eleanor Roosevelt once said, ‘No one can make you feel inferior without your permission.’ With stories from her own life and data carefully researched, Sheryl Sandberg reminds women that they have to believe in themselves and reach for opportunities. More women than men may need that advice, but I'd bet that both genders would profit from this very well-done book” MenNeedsFeelsBelieveWellsMaySaidBookDoneStoriesOpportunityAdviceProfitGenderDataPermissionInferiorsWell DoneEleanor Author:Marjorie Scardino
“I have heard Shree Rajneesh and have been inspired by his talks. His works are sublimne and seek to liberate the soul of humans. Indeed his presentation is unique, his goal is great and his success in liberating each person from the mafia surrounding the soul is rewarding reading. The message that he had to deliver must reach everywhere. Ultimately salvation comes when one attains freedom from oneself. That, I believe, is the consummation which exposure to Osho may help.” BelieveHumansMayPersonsHas BeensSoulHelpingReadingI BelieveGoalHeardMessagesUniqueSalvationInspiredOneselfExposureLiberatingMafiaPresentation Author:V.

“Make no mistake about it: the labeling of someone's language as 'sexist' involves a political judgment and implies the desirability of a particular sociological doctrine.

“On the whole, however, the conclusions I have drawn from the proofs quoted may, I believe, safely be relied on. Assuredly they will not be disturbed either by the lays of a poet displaying the exaggeration of his craft, or by the compositions of the chroniclers that are attractive at truth's expense; the subjects they treat of being out of the reach of evidence, and time having robbed most of them of historical value by enthroning them in the region of legend.” BelieveMayWholeValuesI BelieveSubjectsPoetEvidenceTreatsLaysHistoricalProofConclusionCraftsAttractiveRegionsExpensesLegendsCompositionDisturbedExaggerationHistorical Value Book:History of Greece Source: History of Greece
“I shall speak only of the part I have stayed in- the districts of Lakes Ochrida and Presba. Here there are Greeks, Slavs, Albanians, and Vlahs. Of Turks, except officials and such of the army as may be quartered on the spot, there are few. The Albanians, I believe, are all Moslem. Should there be any Christians they would be officially classed as Greeks. A large part of the land near Lake Presba is owned by Moslem Albanians as ' chiftliks '(farms).” ShouldBelieveMayWould BeChristianSpeakI BelieveLandArmySpotsGreekOfficialsLakesFarms Author:Edith Durham
