Thoughts for Today

He who is different from me does not impoverish me -- he enriches me. Our unity is constituted in something higher then ourselves -- in Man....For no man seeks to hear his own echo, or to find his refection in the glass.
~Flight to Arras, by Antoine de Saint-Exupery from A Guide for Grown-ups

It is unwise to be too sure of one's own wisdom. It is healthy to be reminded that the strongest might weaken and the wisest might err.
~Mahatma Gandhi

Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
~Leo Tolstoy

Dreams come true; without that possibility, nature would not incite us to have them.
~John Updike

When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
~Mahatma Gandhi

He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself is mightier still.
~Lao Tzu

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.
~Mahatma Gandhi

Do not speak harshly to anybody; those who are spoken to will answer thee in the same way. Angry speech is painful; blows for blows will touch thee.
~#133 from the Dhammapada, the teachings of the Buddha

Have a wonderful day!
