It is not the critic who counts,
nor the man who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.
The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood;
who strives valiantly;
who errs and comes short again and again;
who knows great enthusiasms, great devotions;
who spends himself in a worthy cause;
who, at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement,
and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be with those timid souls
who know neither victory nor defeat.
- Theodore Roosevelt

Intolerance lies at the core of evil.
Not the intolerance that results
from any threat or danger.
But intolerance of another being who dares to exist.
Intolerance without cause. It is so deep within us,
because every human being secretly desires
the entire universe to himself.
Our only way out is to learn
compassion without cause. To care for each other
simple because that 'other' exists.

- Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendle

"Don't be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality.

If you can dream it, you can make it so."

Tefila

Some men see things as they are and ask why. Others dream things that never were and ask why not.

People are like stained-glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within.

An education isn't how much you have committed to memory, or even how much you know. It's being able to differentiate between what you know and what you don't

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart. -- Helen Keller
