Thought-Provoking...
"See yourself. No matter what the world is saying around you, imagine yourself with power. Not power so that you can get even with anybody else. Power so that you can become even with your vision."
Maya Angelou
(In becoming myself: reflections on growing up female, Willa Shalit)
"Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you often succeed."
The Magician's Nephew
C.S. Lewis
“There is no such thing as a ‘self-made’ man. We are made up of thousands of others. Everyone who has ever done a kind deed for us, or spoken one word of encouragement to us, has entered into the make-up of our character and of our thoughts, as well as our successes.”
George Burton Adams
"Wanna be a bowling pin your whole life? Just standing there perfectly content to be knocked down time and time again? Or would you rather be the ball...? I gotta tell ya, being the ball feels a hell of a lot better."
Rube
Dead Like Me
"It has done me good," said the fox, "because of the color of the wheat fields."
The Little Prince
Antoine De Saint-Exupery

Czesc.... hi
Tak.... yes
Nie.... no
Do widzenia... goodbye
Dziekuje.... thank you
Prosze.... please
