“The only thing to do with good advice is to pass it on. It is never of any use to oneself.”
Oscar Wilde
“A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razor strap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
Mark Twain
“Leisure is time for doing something useful; this leisure the diligent man will obtain, but the lazy man never”
Benjamin Franklin
“I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work, the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no “brief candle” to me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.”
George Bernard Shaw
“True greatness consists in the use of a powerful understanding to enlighten oneself and others”
Voltaire
“You paint your own self-image. You just haven’t learned how to use the pencil yet.”
Ole J. Carlsen
“If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”
John Quincy Adams
