One isn't necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can't be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest.
If you have only one smile in you,
give it to the people you love. Don't be surly at home, then go out in the
street and start grinning 'Good morning' at total strangers.
A bird doesn't sing because it has
an answer, it sings because it has a song.
Words mean more than what is set
down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with shades of deeper meaning.
There's a world of difference between
truth and facts. Facts can obscure truth.
If you find it in your heart to care for
somebody else, you will have succeeded.
The above quotes By Maya Angelou, Author & Poet
 
How can one not speak about war, poverty, and inequality when people who suffer from these afflictions don't have a voice to speak?
Isabel Allende
To me, we must learn to spell the word RESPECT.
We must respect the rights and properties of
our fellowman. And then learn to play the game
of life, as well as the game of athletics,
according to the rules of society. If you
can take that and put it into practice in
the community in which you live, then, to
me you have won the greatest championship.
Jesse Owens, Olympic Champion
Success doesn’t come to you, you go to it.
Marva Collins, Educator
I don’t know the key to success,
but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
Bill Cosby, Actor and Comedian
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die,
life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.
Langston Hughes, Poet
Both tears and sweat are salty, but they render a different result. Tears will get you sympathy; sweat will get you change.
Jesse Jackson, Civil Rights Activist
You can always chase a dream but it will not count if you never catch it.
Malcolm X, Muslim Leader
