A friend who is far away is sometimes much nearer than one who is at hand. Is not the mountain far more awe-inspiring and more clearly visible to one passing through the valley than to those who inhabit the mountain?
Faith is a knowledge within the heart, beyond the reach of proof.
Faith is an oasis in the heart which will never be reached by the caravan of thinking.
Kahlil Gibran
"When you have faults, do not fear to abandon them."
"He who speaks without modesty will find it difficult to make his words good. "
"It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop. "
"I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. "
"When anger rises, think of the consequences. "
"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in getting up every time we do."
Counfucius
“I don't know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes- it is inevitable. But once you do and you see the mistake, then you forgive yourself and say, 'well, if I'd known better I'd have done better,' that's all. So you say to people who you think you may have injured, 'I'm sorry,' and then you say to yourself, 'I'm sorry.' If we all hold on to the mistake, we can't see our own glory in the mirror because we have the mistake between our faces and the mirror; we can't see what we're capable of being. You can ask forgiveness of others, but in the end the real forgiveness is in one's own self. I think that young men and women are so caught by the way they see themselves. Now mind you. When a larger society sees them as unattractive, as threats, as too black or too white or too poor or too fat or too thin or too sexual or too asexual, that's rough. But you can overcome that. The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself. If we don't have that we never grow, we never learn, and sure as hell we should never teach.”
Maya Angelou
“You may be sorry that you spoke, sorry you stayed or went, sorry you won or lost, sorry so much was spent. But as you go through life, you'll find - you're never sorry you were kind.”
Herbert Prochnow
“Love is always having to say I’m sorry.”

If you're going to do something tonight that you'll be sorry for tomorrow morning, sleep late.

“More men are sorry for speaking, than keeping silence”
Do not worry about your difficulties in Mathematics. I can assure you mine are still greater.
I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.
Imagination is more important than knowledge...
It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education.
Try not to become a man of success but rather to become a man of value.
Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.
If the facts don't fit the theory, change the facts.
At any rate, I am convinced that He [God] does not play dice.
