I actually did not know where to post this topic;whether under entertainment or education.Anyway, let's have it here since we are going to be educated from it.
Inspirational statements made by great men and women such as Abraham Lincoln have the ability to mould our lives in one way or the other. I am an adant reader and absorber of such statements;if you have any please post in clean English.
Consider these;
I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies;for the hardest victory is the victory over self.
-Aristotle.
Written laws are like the spider web,they would catch,it is true,the week and the poor,but would be torn in pieces by the powerful and rich.
-Anacharis.

It's a good thing to heed to words of wisdom.It fore tells the future and advises us on the ways of life.
Listen to this: If you work righteously you will surely defeat what defeated your father but if you work unrighteously what defeated your father will defeat you.

This is a topic i like. I consider wisdom words as answers to the questions of life. Let me start with these: >the secret of living is giving >be humble or you'll stumble >the more you look back, the less you get ahead. There's no future in the past >to win the race you have to stay on the track >the fist rule of winning is... don't beat yourself >if you suceed, try something harder. ...more to come

A dog will not tell you he has fleas but you can tell by the way he scratches
A dream is reality which has yet to materialize.
A foolish man perceives meekness as weakness
A smile is a light in the window of your face to show your heart is at home.

Be excellent of what is good,be innocent of evil.
He who covers over an offense promotes love, but whoever repeats the matter seperates close friends.

Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.
We take for granted the things that we should be thankful for.
You are richer today if u have given, forgiven and know that u have enough.
Happiness is enhanced by others, but does not depend upon others.
Happy memories never wear out.......Relieve them as often as u want.
You can’t change the past but u can ruin the present by worrying about the future.
If u fill ur heart with regrets of yesterday and worries of today u will not have tomorrow to be thankful for.
To get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it.
Love is strengthened by working through conflicts together.
Love is the only thing that can be determined without being diminished.
Do what u can, for whom u can, with what u have, from where u are.
The real measure of a person’s wealth is what he has invested into eternity.
Thank God for what u have and trust God for what u need.
God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with Him.

The greatest tragedy
Of life is not "death"
but the ideas that
"die" in a man while he lives.
"Some men see things
the way they are and say, 'Why?
I dream things
that never were and say,'Why not?'
-Robert Kennedy-

EMPTY PROMISES!
Promises made promises broken,
promises made by the down trodden.
Words are said,vows are made ,
the mouth has spoken
but the promise made is forgotten
when the heart is no longer broken and the mind is no longer solemn.

Do u believe that your dream is your desire, your desire is your sentiments, your sentiment is your love, your love is your heart, your heart is your spouse, your spouse is your future, your future is your destiny, your destiny is your ambition, your ambition is your inspiration, your inspiration is your motivation, your motivation is your belief, your belief is your peace, your peace is your target, your target is heaven and heaven is your home?
