Jon Meacham
“From Plato to Kant, the substance of what is known as the Golden Rule—one common to the world’s religious and moral traditions—has occupied philosophers across the ages. Lincoln’s own sensibility—both moral and political—was founded on this injunction. “As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master,” he once wrote. “This expresses my idea of democracy.”
― Jon Meacham, And There Was Light: Abraham Lincoln and the American Struggle

Sophocles
“To Never Have been born may be the greatest boon of all”
― Sophocles

“My life has been blessed because of their courageous actions, leaving behind loved ones and all their material possessions to achieve freedoms that few countries could offer. They sacrificed willingly, never looking back with regrets.”
― Maximiliano Febles, Half Past Noon In Cuba: a Novel

“He had always believed that people create their own destiny, through hard work and perseverance almost anything could be accomplished.”
― Maximiliano Febles, Half Past Noon In Cuba: a Novel
