Never discourage anyone…who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.
Classical Greek philosopher, mathematician, student of Socrates, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world.
Those who tell the stories rule society
There is truth in wine and children
The measure of a man is what he does with power
If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things
I'm trying to think, don't confuse me with facts
Ignorance, the root and stem of every evil
Even if you are on the right track, you’ll get run over if you just sit there
There is nothing more tragic than to find an individual bogged down in the length of life, devoid of breadth
I have never developed indigestion from eating my words
Be like the sun for grace and mercy. Be like the night to cover others' faults. Be like running water for generosity. Be like death for rage and anger. Be like the Earth for modesty. Appear as you are. Be as you appear.
Take care of your cents: Dollars will take care of themselves
Lectures which really teach will never be popular; lectures which are popular will never really teach
