I'vealways felt that a person's intelligence is directly reflected by the numberof conflicting points of view he can entertain simultaneously on the sametopic.

A taste for truth at any cost is a passion which spares nothing:

The oldbelieve everything, the middle-aged suspect everything, the young knoweverything.

Freedom suppressed and again regained bites with keener fangs that freedom never endangered.

If you are distressed by anything external, the pain isnot due to the thing itself but to your own estimate of it; and this you havethe power to revoke at any moment.

Livingwith integrity means: not settling for less than what you know you deserve inyour relationships. Asking for what you want and need from others. Speakingyour truth, even though it might create conflict or tension. Behaving in waysthat are in harmony

Mirrors should be able to think before reflecting the images.

The difficulty of speeches is what you are perpetually poised between the ciche and the indiscretion

Modesty is the clothing of talent.

Standingin the middle of the road is very dangerous; you get knocked down by thetraffic from both sides.

To be wronged is nothing, unless you continue to remember it.
