We are all better than we know. If only we can be brought to realise this, we may never be prepared to settle for anything less

There is more in you than you think.

Without the instinct for adventure, any civilization, however enlightened; any state, however well-ordered, will wilt and wither.

Your disability is your opportunity.

There is more to us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for less.

Education must enable young people to effect what they have recognized to be right, despite hardships, despite dangers, despite inner skepticism, despite boredom, and despite mockery from the world. . . .

There are three ways of trying to win the young. There is persuasion, there is compulsion, and there is attraction. You can preach at them: that is a hook without a worm. You can say, You must volunteer, and that is of the devil. You can tell them, You are needed. That appeal hardly ever fails.
