Faith is an oasis in the heart which will never be reached by the caravan of thinking.
— Khalil Gibran
We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.
Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life; not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Where is the justice of political power if it executes the murderer and jails the plunderer, and then itself marches upon neighboring lands, killing thousands and pillaging the very hills?
I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires.
