Some people think I am audacious for even talking about my ideas.
I choose to listen to the ones that have been telling me I can.
Helen Keller: “You are only one, but still you are one. You cannot do everything, but still you can do something; and because you cannot do everything, you should not refuse to do something that you know you can do.”
Theodore Roosevelt: “Believe you can and you are halfway there.”
Anne Frank: “How wonderful it is that you don’t need to wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
Leo Rosten: “The purpose of your life is not to be happy—but to matter, to be productive, to be useful, to have it make some difference that you have lived at all.”
Robert F. Kennedy: “Each time you stand up for an ideal, or act to improve the lot of others, or strike out against injustice, you send forth a tiny ripple of hope…and crossing each other they form a million different centers of energy, and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance.”
Margaret Mead: “Never doubt that you and a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”
Woodrow Wilson: “You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world.”
Gandhi: “If you change yourself, you will change your world. If you change how you think then you will change how you feel and what actions you take, and so the world around you will change. Not only because you are now viewing your environment through new lenses of thoughts and emotions, but also because the change within can allow you to take action in ways you wouldn’t have—or maybe even have—thought about while stuck in your old thought patterns.”
Martin Luther King Jr.: “No one has the right to rain on your dreams.”
Nelson Mandela: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
Charles Eames: “Choose your corner, pick away at it carefully, intensely and to the best of your ability and that way you might change the world.”
Wayne Dyer: “Your mind at peace, centered and not focused on harming others, is stronger than any physical force in the universe. Anything you really want you can attain, if you really go after it.”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow: “If you would hit the mark, you must aim a little above it. Every arrow that flies feels the attraction of the Earth.”
B.J. Palmer: “You never know how far reaching something you may think, say or do today will affect the lives of millions tomorrow.”
Harriet Tubman: “Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”
Sri Chinmoy: “Do you need a revolution to change the world? I suggest that the most effective way to change the world is to begin by changing yourself. If these ideas gained greater acceptance, the world would unmistakably change for the better.”
An old Friend: “Past the seeker as he prayed came the crippled and the beggar and the beaten. And seeing them, he cried, “Great God, how is it that a loving creator cannot see such things and yet do nothing about them?” God said, “I did do something. I made you.”
