"I may neither choose who I would,..." - Quote by William Shakespeare

“it is not enough to speak, but to speak truee”

“Of all the fair resort of gentlemenThat every day with parle encounter me,In thy opinion which is worthiest love?”

“The liquid drops of tears that you have shedShall come again, transform'd to orient pearl,Advantaging their loan with interestOf ten times double gain of happiness.”

“Today we are going to talk about words. You know, words are containers for power. They carry creative or destructive power. They carry positive or negative power. We can choose our words and we should do it carefully.”

“Enlightenment writer and philosopher Voltaire likened life to a game of cards. Players must accept the cards dealt to them. However, once they have those cards in hand, they alone choose how they will play them. They decide what risks and actions to take.”

“Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.”

“The relative freedom which we enjoy depends of public opinion. The law is no protection. Governments make laws, but whether they are carried out, and how the police behave, depends on the general temper in the country. If large numbers of people are interested in freedom of speech, there will be freedom of speech, even if the law forbids it; if public opinion is sluggish, inconvenient minorities will be persecuted, even if laws exist to protect them.”

“There is no liberty except the liberty of some one making his way towards something. Such a man can be set free if you will teach him the meaning of thirst, and how to trace a path to a well. Only then will he embark upon a course of action that will not be without significance. You could not liberate a stone if there were no law of gravity - for where will the stone go, once it is quarried?”

“I can't be a slave to the machine, you feel like you're in the matrix.”
