Gautama Buddha
“All that we are is the result of what we have thought: it is founded on our thoughts and made up of our thoughts.

Gautama Buddha

Gautama Buddha
“Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful.”
Buddha

Dwight David Eisenhower
“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

Dwight D. Eisenhower

Virginia Woolf
