“Be eager to lend a patient ear to the opinions of others and think long and hard whether whoever finds fault has reason or not to censure you. And if the answer is yes, correct the fault. If no, give the impression that you have not heard him, or if he is a man whom you respect, explain to him why he is mistaken.” IfsThinkingMenGivingLongHardReasonAnswersOpinionHeardEarsFaultsCriticsPatientImpressionMistakenCensure Author:Leonardo da Vinci
“If family and society tell you its unfeminine, not really womanly, to be aggressive, to speak up, to have strong opinions, to take up space, then women won't trust their own voice, because to be heard and to be influential, you've got to have a way to sing out with passion and love and self-trust - to sing out your song for everyone to hear.” IfsWaySelfSongPassionSpeakStrongWomenVoiceSpaceOpinionHeardAnd LoveAggressiveInfluentialSelf TrustLove And PassionWomanlyStrong Opinions Author:Elizabeth Lesser

“If nature be regarded as the teacher and we poor human beings as her pupils, the human race presents a very curious picture. We all sit together at a lecture and possess the necessary principles for understanding it, yet we always pay more attention to the chatter of our fellow students than to the lecturer's discourse. Or, if our neighbor copies something down, we sneak it from him, stealing what he himself may have heard imperfectly, and add it to our own errors of spelling and opinion.” IfsHumansMayTogetherUnderstandingHuman BeingsPoorPayRaceAttentionOpinionPrinciplesTeacherHeardStudentsFellowsAddErrorsNeighborStealingCuriousHuman RaceCopiesDiscourseLecturesPupilsSneakSpellingLecturerChatter Author:Georg C.
