Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Without Freedom of thought, there can be no such Thing as Wisdom; and no such thing as public Liberty, without Freedom of speech”

“The experienced mountain climber is not intimidated by a mountain -- he is inspired by it. The persistent winner is not discouraged by a problem -- he is challenged by it. Mountains are created to be conquered; adversities are designed to be defeated; problems are sent to be solved. It is better to master one mountain than a thousand foothills.”
William Arthur Ward
“You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”
Winnie the Pooh
“Reality is merely an illusion, although a very persistent one”
Albert Einstein
