Though good may come of practice,
This primal truth endures;
The first time anything is done,
It's done by amateurs.
- Art Buck
I am done with great things and big plans, great institutions and big success. I am for those tiny, invisible, loving, human forces that work from individual to individual, creeping through the crannies of the world like so many rootlets, or like the capillary oozing of water, which, if given time, will rend the hardest monuments of pride.
- William James
The way to make a true friend is to be one. Friendship implies loyalty, esteem, cordiality, sympathy, affection, readiness to aid, to help, to stick, to fight for if need be. Radiate friendship and it will return sevenfold.
- B.C. Forbes
The wise learn many things from their enemies.
- Aristophanes, "The Birds"
It is no use saying "We are doing our best".
You have got to succeed in doing what is necessary.
- Sir Winston Churchill
People who change their way of life and begin to think about making spiritual progress also begin to suffer from the tongues of detractors. Whoever has not yet suffered this trial has not yet made progress, and whoever is not ready to suffer it does not even endeavor to progress.
- Aurelius Augustinus
What do we live for if not to make the world less difficult for each other?
- George Eliot
