Magna est veritas, et praevalebit: truth is mighty, and will prevail

Commitment to a plan or thought carries with it a force that can influence the unconscious mind and bring about the desired effect. In other words, once we decide to have something, the mind unconsciously begins to create the reality necessary to bring to pass what we desire.

The assumption of time is one of humanity's greatest follies. We tell ourselves that there's always tomorrow, when we can no more predict tomorrow than we can the weather. Procrastination is the thief of dreams.

Humanity is always looking for the next great world, the next frontier. I wonder how different this world would be if we were content with where we were.

Could it be that to truly love a thing is not to desire it, but to desire happiness for it?

Heroes rarely look the way we draw them in our minds: attractive, imposing figures with rippling muscles and strong chins. More times than not they are humble beings, small and flawed. It is only their spirits that are beautiful and strong.

I don't think it is as much a human foible as it is a human curse that we cannot understand the beauty of a thing until it is gone.
