"Go to the people. Learn from them...." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“The wise man is one who knows what he does not know.”

“Trustable words are not beautiful; beautiful words are not trustable.”

“Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.”

“When a highly successful leader retires after a long career, it is very unlikely that his successor will be of comparable caliber. Anyone of similar ability and drive would have gone somewhere else, instead of waiting in the wings for years for a chance to show his own leadership.”

“Exemplary people concern themselves with virtue,small people concern themselves with territory. The ruling classthinks of punishment, the lower classes hope for benevolence.”

“Well could he ride, and often men would say, "That horse his mettle from his rider takes: Proud of subjection, noble by the sway, What rounds, what bounds, what course, what stop he makes!" And controversy hence a question takes, Whether the horse by him became his deed, Or he his manage by the well-doing steed.”

“It's good to put money back into communities.”

“The people there, the community, the lessons that I learned -- they're all based right in this few square miles where we'll now be able to give something back and bring the world back home after this incredible journey.”

“If only for a half hour a day, a child should do something serviceable to the community”
