Success
One of the commonest mistakes and one of the costliest in thinking that success is due to some genius, some magic - something or other which we do not possess. Success is generally due to holding on, and failure due to letting go. You decide to learn a language, study music, take a course of reading, train yourself physically. Will it be success or failure depends on how much you pluck and perseverance that word 'decide' contains. The decision that nothing can overrule, the grip that nothing detach will bring success. Remember the Chinese proverb "With Time and patience, the mulberry leaf become Stain." - Maltbie D. Babthingy
Nobody lights a lamp to put it under the bowl, instead he puts it on the lamp stand, where it gives light for everyone in the house. In the same way, your light a knowledge must shine before people so that they will see the good things and follow suit. - Christ
An Epitaph in a cemetery: When you go home, tell them of us and say for their tomorrow we gave our today.
The disciples were sitting on a bank of a river. If I fall off the bank will I drown? one of them asked.
"No" said the master. "It isn't falling that causes you to drown; it is staying in".
No matter how big the crocodile is, it is hatched from an egg.
When a rat sits on a beautiful pot, it cannot be killed.
The miracle is that - the more we share, the more we have - Leonard Nimoy
