Leadership and success quote:


"Try and fail, but don't fail to try."

Rosalynn Carter

“Leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders.”

I learnt this quote from my friend. This is the most realistic quote I have ever come across.

IF you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:

If you can dream - and not make dreams your master;
If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools:

If you can make one heap of all your winnings
And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: 'Hold on!'

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
' Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch,
if neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

[ Rudyard Kipling ]

Those who said "It doesn't matter if we win or lose", most probably lost.

[Boyz_Zoo]

I have not urged a mechanical fusion of the civil rights and peace movements. There are people who have come to see the moral imperative of equality, but who cannot yet see the moral imperative of world brotherhood. I would like to see the fervor of the civil-rights movement imbued into the peace movement to instill it with greater strength. And I believe everyone has a duty to be in both the civil-rights and peace movements. But for those who presently choose but one, I would hope they will finally come to see the moral roots common to both. by Martin Luther Jr. King

[Keiko123]

To educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted, but to always seek out and value the kind that will stand behind the action. Nothing that is done for you is a matter of course. Everything originates in a will for the good, which is directed at you. Train yourself never to put off the word or action for the expression of gratitude.

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person.
Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.



-Albert Schweitzer-

―Lois Wyse:P

[Blue2u]

My favourite's are:
The difference between a genius and a smart person is that a smart person solves problems but a genius prevents it.
When you dream, dream big but it's no use, if you don't wake up and work at it.
Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, teach the man to fish and he'll eat everyday.
Behind every successful man is a woman but behind every failure is a group of woman.
(Remember Tiger Woods?)
I'm not a genius, I'm just scientifically curious
Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you'll cry alone.
Most people complain when they feel pain, but I feel that pain is the most wonderful sensation in my life, it keeps you going, it keeps you alert, it tells you something is wrong about your body, and most importantly......it tells you you're alive.

And to save the best for last:
Sometimes when we are happy, no one sees are smile,
Sometimes when we are sad, no one sees our tears,
But fart just one time,.....

"It's just a job. Grass grows, birds fly, waves pound the sand. I just beat people up"
-Muhammad Ali

[nittu]

one of my favourite life qoutes.. just want to share with everyone..

Did you suffer greatly sometime?
... That was a time for learning

Did you cry a lot?
... you were cleansing the soul

Did you feel spiteful?
... it was a lesson on forgiveness

Did you feel lonely?
... look around and you will see people waiting for your smile, just to get closer to you

At times you were alone?
... It was because you closed the door

If we think small; the small will come.
If we think firmly on the best, on the positive and we strive for it; the best will come in our lives

Were there times you believed everything was lost?
... It was simply the begining of your improvement.

It is not important the time of life when you tired.
Important is that it is always possible and necessary to re-start.

Re-birthing is a new oppurtunity; it is renewing the hopes in life; and more importantly, it is believing one self.

Life calls you; invites you to a new adventure, a new journey, a new challenge.

This day promise yourself: that you will do anything possible to achieve your objectives, trust in life, trust in yourself.

Today is the great mental mental cleansing day. Throw away all that binds you to the past; all that hurts you. Discard everything in garbage; clean your heart; prepare it for a new life...........

[alter_ego]

You'll never reach perfection because there's always room for improvement. Yet along the way to perfection you'll learn to get better.:)

[kaze]

I really like this quote from Ibn al-Haytham or known as alhazen by the west. :)

“The seeker after truth is not one who studies the writings of the ancients and, following his natural disposition, puts his trust in them, but rather the one who suspects his faith in them and questions what he gathers from them, the one who submits to argument and demonstration, and not the sayings of a human being whose nature is fraught with all kinds of imperfection and deficiency. Thus the job of the man who investigates the writings of scientist, if learning the truth is his goal, is to make himself an enemy of all that he reads, and applying his mind to the core and margins of its content, attack it from every side. He should also suspect himself as he performs his critical examination of it, so that he may avoid falling into either prejudice or leniency.”

[Newspaper]

Friend: "I'm having breakfast and then I'm taking a nap."
Me: "...But you just woke up an hour ago."
Friend: "I know. That's why I'm going to have breakfast FIRST."

Friend: "I don't like sandy beaches."
Me: "So do you like rocky beaches then?"
Friend: "Nope."
Me: "Why not?"
Friend: "Because there's no sand."

Me: "Shit, they put so much cocoa powder on the whipped cream I think I accidentally inhaled some while drinking."

Me: "So let me get this straight. In order to solve the problem of a 19 year old buying Pokemon, you ask a 20 year old [me] to buy Pokemon."
Friend: "Yes."
