I have always been the dunce, the never-do-well of the family, I've always have to pay double for my deeds, first with the scolding and then again because of the way my feelings are hurt.

The world has plenty of room, riches, money and beauty ... Let us begin by dividing it more fairly.

Look at how a single candle can both defy and define the darkness.

Paper has more patience than people.

In spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart. I simply can’t build up my hopes on a foundation consisting of confusion, misery, and death. I see the world gradually being turned into a wilderness, I hear the ever approaching thunder, which will destroy us too, I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come right, that this cruelty too will end, and that peace and tranquility will return again.

How wonderful it is that we can start doing good at this very moment.

by thinking, nobody can ever get worse but will only get better.
