Intelligence is more important than strength, that is why earth is ruled by men and not by animals.

Belief is a wonderful way to pass the time until the facts come in.

Don't keep your nation-changing thoughts to yourself. Else it won't actually change the nation. Impact!

Just is not by other men of intelligence that an intelligent an is afraid of being thought a fool, so it is not by the great gentleman but by boors and 'bounders' that a man of fashion is afraid of finding his social value underrated. Three-fourths of the mental ingenuity displayed, of the social falsehoods scattered broadcast ever since the world began by people whose importance they have served only to diminish, have been aimed at inferiors.

People think that whatever comes out of the mouth of a wise man is the choicest gem, sometime it's utter stupidity and rubbish

True freedom is in not having a master, but in making the master your slave

If you think you can't, you're wrong and right

We are looking for value, guidance, advice, inspiration; for someone to show us the way. When we find him, he is our hero

True understanding lies beyond the desert

Keeping hatred against someone is like helping him to torture you

You are what you believe

Experience is hard to acquire. Only the wise acquire it

A good man can be destroyed by the association with men of evil character. A wise man can learn from them

If there is no reward, there is no reason to run

Know the laws before you break them

Please others and you please yourself

Calm is the best revenge

Some people have the license to sin: Soldiers, to kill; politicians, writers, priests, businessmen, married man and women, to lie; and married couples to have sex

You can have some, but not all. Wanting to have it all is a sure recipe for disaster

If you want an abscess to cure you must press it hard

It's always easy to conquer the hungry with a piece of bread. Only the wise can conquer the strong

It's not what we can do that makes us great, but what we can do but don't which make us great

Even if you are not evil, pretend to be. It will put off some abuse

The hardest thing is a man to truly know himself

Life is a sweet sour adventure. When you want to go it becomes sweet, when you remain, it becomes sour

The problem with satisfaction is it's a bottomless pit

Forget about the great astounding victory. Focus on winning small victories every day, the final victory will come by itself

You cannot skip the beginning and hope to reach the end. You will fall as soon as you get there

The greatest wisdom is to be happy

You're like candy. People lick your knowledge to become wise, lick your words from your powerful mouth and say it even better than you. Lick each step you make and stay on a good track, and once you're dead, the lickers scavenge for another intellectual candy.

How can one absolve intelligent men for engaging in arrogant and demented folly?
