"If all mankind minus one were of one opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
"A wolf can only mock a lion thousands of miles away."
"Genuine anger was one of the world's great creative forces. But you had to learn how to control it. That didn't mean you let it trickle away. It meant you dammed it, carefully, let it develop a working head, let it drown whole valleys of the mind and then, just when the whole structure was about to collapse, opened a tiny pipeline at the base and let the iron-hard stream of wrath power the turbines of revenge."
"Only when the lion is out of sight can you raise your fist at him."
"Your mind is a weapon. Your heart is an asset. Your soul is a treasure. Your life is a jewel."
"The general tendency of things throughout the world is to render mediocrity the ascendant power among mankind."
"I have all gifts on earth minus one....Patience to do what the devil wants me to do. My bible taught me a lot about taking some things in my life by force. People do tell me sometimes take it easy, God didn t tell me to take things easy, He says take Charge. Some people do tell me to be careful! But my bible didn t tell me to be careful but it says I should be careful for nothing. Some people tell me to take time but my bibles says take charge. Some people says be patient but my bible says whatever your hands finds to do, do it quickly.So don t only memorise your weakness, try to saturate your strength with the power of God, always have an alternative for any negative suggestion."
