• "Let no one be discouraged by the belief that there is nothing one man or one woman can do against the enormous array of the world's ills - against misery and ignorance, injustice and violence... Few wil have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events and in the total of all those acts will be written the history of this generation... It is from the numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man or woman stands up for an ideal, or against injustice, he or she sends a tiny ripple of hope; and crossing each other from million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistence." Robert F. Kennedy
• "Develop an interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich; simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls, and interesting people. Forget yourself." Henry Miller
• "I am still determined to be cheerful and happy in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances." Martha Washington
• "And then I explain to him how naive we were that the world did know and remained silent. And that is why I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere. When human lives are endangered, when human dignity is in jeopardy, national borders and sensitivities become irrelevant. Wherever men and women are persecuted because of their race, religion or political views, that place must - at that moment - become the center of the universe." Elie Wiesel
• "Maybe all we can do is hope to end up with the right regrets." Arthur Miller
• "I have no doubt that education is good for the soul, not only for the mind. I have no doubt that questions have their own magic, their own charm and their own immortality. I have no doubt that faith is only pure when it does not negate the faith of another. I have no doubt that evil can be fought and that indifference is no option. I have no doubt that fanaticism is dangerous. And that of all the books in the world on lfe, I have no doubt that the life of on person weighs more than them all." Elie Wiesel

" But when the assassin's bullets shattered the dream, she showed the world that there was unimagined strength beneath the silk." Hugh Sidey on Jacqueline Kennedy "Once you can express yourself you can tell the world what you want from it. All the changes in the world, for good or for evil, were first brought about by words." Jacqueline Kennedy "We must give to life at least as much as we receive from it. Every moment one lives is different from the next. The good, the bad, the hardship, the joy, the tragedy, love, and happiness are all interwoven into one single indescribable whole that is called life. You cannot separate the good from the bad. And, perhaps there is no need to do so either." Jacqueline Kennedy.
