Why should I trust you? We haven't drunk from the same bowl of soup.

Pride grows in the human heart like lard on a pig.

It was only when I lay there on the rotting prison straw that I sensed within myself the first stirrings of good. Gradually it was disclosed to me that the line separating good and evil passes not between states nor between social classes nor between political parties, but right through every human heart, through all human hearts. And that is why I turn back to the years of my imprisonment and say, sometimes to the astonishment of those about me, bless you, prison, for having been a part of my life.

Evil people always support each other; that is their chief strength.

A forest doesn't weep over one tree.

Talent is always conscious of its own abundance, and does not object to sharing.

If you want to change the world, who do you begin with, yourself or others? I believe if we begin with ourselves and do the things that we need to do and become the best person we can be, we have a much better chance of changing the world for the better.
