We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone.
It is not possible to help every creature on this earth by a single person, but even if everyone is helping someone every day, then it creates a huge difference. To help without authority is actual kindness.
We are never defeated unless we give up on God
There is a power beyond science, and it is spiritual. Everywhere we go, God is with us because he lives in us. He gives the power not to give up, to fight and conquer, and until we believe in him, we are never defeated.
There are no great limits to growth because there are no limits of human intelligence, imagination, and wonder.
Human life is special because till death; we have no limit on growth, imagination, and creativity. There is no age of learning, finding love, getting married, and getting success. Knowledge is limitless, and a person can utilize his own life to gain it.
The future doesn't belong to the fainthearted; it belongs to the brave.
Future belongs to the one who has wishes, and dedication to fulfil those wishes. Everyone in life face such challenges where we are supposed to choose between giving up and rising after falling. If we can be able to predict the causes of our failure and put efforts accordingly, we are then brave enough to conquer in the future.
We should measure welfare's success by how many people leave welfare, not by how many are added.
People who are concerned about welfare do not look at the perks behind it. Once you get into something for its welfare, you will never think of leaving it, and it is how its success is measured.
A people free to choose will always choose peace.
We all have goals, and we need a strong will to achieve them. People who have a will to achieve goals already choose to work in peace of mind. A chaotic person will never choose peace. But a sensible person will always select peace above all.
My philosophy of life is that if we make up our mind what we are going to make of our lives, then work hard towards that goal, we never lose - somehow, we win out.
If one makes up his mind to achieve something and works hard with determination, then no one can ever stop that person from reaching his goal. This philosophy of life is not easy, but it is simple. Anything can be achieved with strong determination, enthusiasm, dedication, and consistency.
For the sake of peace and justice, let us move toward a world in which all people are at last free to determine their own destiny.
In this beautiful world, let us rise above all the hate, jealousy. And spread peace and love. Let us talk about equity and follow the religion of mankind. Let us put an end to all the discrimination and let the people chose their destiny.

Let us be shy no longer. Let us go to our strength. Let us offer hope. Let us tell the world that a new age is not only possible but probable.
Regretting and feeling shy and afraid of not being trying is the biggest failure. Losing a battle without fighting it, never make any sense. So, let us call upon our hope and making our failures our strength we will rise. Let us tell the world where there is a will there is a way.
Life is one grand, sweet song, so start the music.
Life is a one-way ticket. Starting as a newborn and ending as old. It is a long roller coaster ride. So, sit tight and enjoy every moment. In this journey, learn the art of forgiveness, love, happiness. Because at the end there will be memories like a theme song playing and a final goodbye until we meet again in a whole new different world.
When you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat.
Doing something well and getting ignored is a depressing thing. Do not lose hope to get up again and do not stop till you reach the top. And when the world will clap at your success and good deeds, eventually the heat of the clap and the sound of success will be felt by them.
Peace is not absence of conflict; it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.
It is not necessary that every person have the same opinion, and sometimes a simple discussion would lead to a conflict among them. Getting things clear is necessary, and running away from them is not the solution. That is not considered to be peaceful. Peace comes when you are capable enough to handle a challenging situation in a peaceful manner and simultaneously end the disputes.
Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed there are many rewards, if you disgrace yourself you can always write a book.
Politics is like walking down a road with a lot of taxpayer's money lying on both sides. Picking it up and filling your pocket or making it useful for the development of the people and nation. It is a 5-year game, if you play it dirty, you lose. If you play it for your nation and the people, then you will be again chosen for the next five years.
Balancing the budget is a little like protecting your virtue: You just have to learn to say "no."
Pleasing everyone with the art of saying yes, every time can get you into serious troubles sometimes. People often regret that if they would have said "NO" instead of "Yes" their life would have been something different and amazing today. Life is all about balancing your no and yes's. Always remember "Yes" is not the only way. So, choose wisely and learn the art of saying no.
Freedom is the right to question and change the established way of doing things.
Freedom is not just meant to be written in the constitution, but it is the right of every individual. Everyone has the right to take a stand for themselves and others and raise their voice, to question and change the way of doing things wisely.
We will always remember. We will always be proud. We will always be prepared, so we will always be free.
We will always remember our roots, no matter how big we achieve in life. All the hard work and sacrifices we have made, we will always be proud of them. We will always be proud of listening to our hearts. We will make a distance from all the evils. We will always pray for what we have. We will always be prepared if something unexpected is thrown into our way. Leaving all regrets and mistakes in the past. We will always be free till our last.
The greatest leader is not necessarily the one who does the greatest things. He is the one that gets the people to do the greatest things.
Democracy always made us expect great steps taken from the leaders of the country and somewhere because of this expectation, we forget that it is the prime responsibility of every individual to start with doing something great. A leader may not do the great things every time, but if he made others do the great things under his leadership, then he is probably the greatest.
Heroes may not be braver than anyone else. They're just braver five minutes longer.
Let us consider the situation. There is a fire in an area, and a dog is stuck inside somewhere. People have gathered around, but everyone is afraid to save the dog. Suddenly one of them from the crowd steps ahead and bravely saves the dog. The time difference was only five minutes, and now we can decide who the hero is.
There is no limit to the amount of good you can do if you don't care who gets the credit.
Everyone is helpful. But real help is the one that does not take authority. Doing good nothing makes a difference. Doing good just for taking the credit is fake. It is natural and normal to help others without taking the credit or without expecting help in return. There is no limit to the good things you do in your life.
Never let the things you can't do stop you from doing what you can.
Sometimes, we are not able to do certain things in life, and that put us under stress. Eventually, due to fear, it stops us from doing the things which we can, and this should not happen. Sometimes moving on becomes the best decision even if it is for a normal cause. Upgrading yourself with what you know would be more beneficial than being afraid of what you do not know.
Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid.
A real person is not afraid of the truth. He will always stand for himself under any situation, and no matter how hard it is to bring the truth in front of everyone, he will never get afraid of evil. Eventually, the evil will lose, and the truth will win.
