“Being a teacher is like being in jail; once it's on your record, you can never get rid of it.”

“He who owns little is little owned.”

“Revolution is a drama of passion. We did not win the people over by appealing to reason but by developing hope, trust, fraternity.”

“As we live, our hearts turn colder. Cause pain is what we go through, as we become older. We get insulted by others, lose trust for those others. We get back stabbed by friends. It becomes harder for us to give others a hand. We get our heart broken by people we love, even that we give them all we have. Then we lose family over time. What else could rust the heart more over time? Blackgold.”

“People look at you and me to see what they are supposed to be. And, if we don't disappoint them, maybe, just maybe, they won't disappoint us.”

“We [americans] are not a freedom-loving people in the beautiful, spiritual sense. We have an inspiring Constitution, but we're a hardhearted people.”

“When people do not respect us we are sharply offended; yet in his private heart no man much respects himself.”

“Deepest principle of human nature is to be appreciated.”
