well since Christmas is just around corner i thought i made a completion of quotes that inspire me throughout my life. this is dedicated to my friends and people i have a deep respect for (list in the description). I'll list them by person (and book)


"Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word."

“Faith is taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase.”

“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”

“If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.”

“Let no man pull you so low as to hate him.”

“Never, never be afraid to do what's right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society's punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way.”

-Martin Luther King JR


“Be the change that you wish to see in the world.”

“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.”

“Seven Deadly Sins

Wealth without work
Pleasure without conscience
Science without humanity
Knowledge without character
Politics without principle
Commerce without morality
Worship without sacrifice.”

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.”

“First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, and then you win.”

“Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.”

“Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.”
-Mahatmma Gandhi


"Hate it has caused a lot of problems in this world, but it has not solved one yet"
-Maya Angelou


“Artistic talent is a gift from God and whoever discovers it in himself has a certain obligation: to know that he cannot waste this talent, but must develop it.”

“Know what you are talking about.”

“Faith and Reason are like two wings of the human spirit by which is soars to the truth.”

“The earth will not continue to offer its harvest, except with faithful stewardship. We cannot say we love the land and then take steps to destroy it for use by future generations.”

“I plead with you--never, ever give up on hope, never doubt, never tire, and never become discouraged. Be not afraid.”

“The worst prison would be a closed heart.”

“Do not be afraid to take a chance on peace, to teach peace, to live peace...Peace will be the last word of history.”

“Friendship, as has been said, consists in a full commitment of the will to another person with a view to that person's good.”

“Humanity should question itself, once more, about the absurd and always unfair phenomenon of war, on whose stage of death and pain only remains standing the negotiating table that could and should have prevented it.”

“Merry Christmas!”
-Pope John Paul II the Great


"Because some things are just worth fighting for."
-James Raynor (StarCraft series)

"A fool gives full vent to his anger, but a wise man keeps himself under control."
-Proverbs 29:11

" Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean of heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,*
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you because of me
Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven.h Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you."
-Matthew 5: 3-12

"as one face differs from another, so does one human heart from another"
-Proverbs 27:19
