“The high destiny of the individual is to serve rather than to rule...”
Albert Einstein
“Helping people in need is a good and essential part of my life, a kind of destiny.”
Princess Diana
“I believe that people have a right to decide their own destiny; people own themselves. I also believe that, in a democracy, government exists because (and only as long as) individual citizens give it a "temporary license to exist" - in exchange for a promise that it will behave itself. In a democracy you own the government - it doesn't own you. Along with this comes a responsibility to ensure that individual actions, in the pursuit of a personal destiny, do not threaten the well-being of others while the "pursuit" is in progress.”
Frank Zappa
“A great revolution in just one single individual will help achieve a change in the destiny of a society and, further, will enable a change in the destiny of humankind.”
Daisaku Ikeda
“Blessed are the people whose leaders can look destiny in the eye without flinching but also without attempting to play God.”
Henry Kissinger
“The main failure of education is that it has not prepared people to comprehend matters concerning human destiny.”
Norman Cousins
“One should guard against preaching to young people success in the customary form as the main aim in life. The most important motive for work in school and in life is pleasure in work, pleasure in its result and the knowledge of the value of the result to the community.”
