I cannot teach anybody anything.
I can only make them think.
Socrates
The object of life is not to be on the side
of the majority, but to escape finding
oneself in the ranks of the insane.
Marcus Aurelius
When dealing with people, remember you are
not dealing with creatures of logic,
but creatures of emotion.
Dale Carnegie
Never argue with stupid people,
they will drag you down to their level
and then beat you with experience.
Mark Twain
The superior man thinks of virtue;
the common man thinks of comfort.
Confucius
The best way to convince someone is by
making him realize that what you speak
came from his own mind.
Alan Watts
The most difficult subjects can be explained
to the most slow-witted man if he has not
formed any idea of them already; but
the simplest thing cannot be made clear
to the most intelligent man if he is firmly
persuaded that he knows already,
without a shadow of doubt,
what is laid before him.
Leo Tolstoy
Hypocrisy in anything whatever may deceive
the cleverest and most penetrating man,
but the least wide-awake of children
recognizes it, and is revolted by it,
however ingeniously it may be disguised.
Leo Tolstoy
I don't want to belong to any club
that would accept me as a member.
Groucho Marx
The very man who has argued you down,
will sometimes be found, years later,
to have been influenced by what you said.
C.S. Lewis
People may hear your words,
but they feel your attitude.
John C. Maxwell
First, they ignore you, then they laugh at you,
then they fight you, then you win.
Mahatma Gandhi
The changes in our life must come from
the impossibility to live otherwise than to
the demands of our conscience, not from our
mental resolution to try a new form of life.
Leo Tolstoy
In order for the truth to be heard, it must
be spoken with love. No matter how wise
and true a spoken word is it will not be
conveyed to someone if it's spoken in anger.
Leo Tolstoy
