Whether you think you can or whether you think you can't, you're right.
Henry Ford
You see things; and you say 'Why?' But I dream things that never were; and I say 'Why not?'
George Bernard Shaw
Within each of us lies the power of our consent to health and sickness, to riches and poverty, to freedom and to slavery. It is we who control these, and not another.
Richard Bach (Illusions)
Never look down on anybody unless you're helping him up.
Jesse Jackson
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
A bird doesn't sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song.
Maya Angelou
There is no use trying, said Alice; one can't believe impossible things. I dare say you haven't had much practice, said the Queen. When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.
Lewis Carroll
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
George Bernard Shaw
