Reputation is generally proof of how little one knows about a person.

Though the boot may fit the foot, one can rarely stand in the tread of his own reputation.

Ignorance speaks loudly, so as to be heard; but its volume proves reason to doubt every word.

Mankind has the genius to bring all the world together and the ignorance to fight upon arrival.

When the world grinds you down, bent to tear you apart, cling to what you hold dear, and stay true to your heart. For the world has a way to dismantle your cause, to exploit what you lack and expose all your flaws. But when every layer of your being is gone, and it seems there's no point anymore to go on; just remember one thing, at the end of the day, when you have self-respect they can't take that away.

A thankful heart is never half-full or half-empty, but always overflowing with love.

Train children to bear responsibility as you would train them to build muscle. Add what they can handle, then prepare them for more.
