When you forgive, you in no way change the past - but you sure do change the future.

Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.

I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.

We are taught you must blame your father, your sisters, your brothers, the school, the teachers - but never blame yourself. It's never your fault. But it's always your fault, because if you wanted to change you're the one who has got to change.
