GREAT THOUGHTS

Be mindful of me,and I will be mindful of you.

The world basically and fundamentally is constituted on the basis of harmony. Everything works in cooperation with something else.

It is probably not love that makes the world go around, but rather those mutually supportive alliances through which partners recognize their dependence on each other for the achievement of shared and private goals.

Let’s face it. In most of life we really are interdependent.We need each other. Staunch independence is an illusion,but heavy dependence isn’t healthy,either. The only position of long term strength is interdependence.

Union gives strength.

The brotherhood of man is evoked by particular men according to their circumstances. But it seldom extends to all men. In the name of freedom and brotherhood we are prepared to blow up the other half of the world and be blown up in our turn.

By perseverance the snail reached the Ark.

God is with those who persevere.Acquire a firm will and the utmost patience.

The galleries are full of critics. They play no ball, they fight no fights, they make no mistakes because they attempt nothing. Down in the arena are the doers. They make mistakes because they try many things. The man who makes no mistakes lacks boldness and the spirit of adventure. He is the one who never tries anything. He is the brake on the wheel of progress and yet it cannot be truly said he makes no mistakes, because his biggest mistake is the very fact that he tries nothing, and does nothing except criticize those who do things.

The real purpose of work is not to satisfy selfish desires. For, if that had been so, GOD would not have worked for the good of the world. Man has to go beyond the sense of “I” and “mine” and replace it with “we” and “ours”.
