Sir Walter Raleigh :
"
Historians desiring to write the actions of men, ought to set down the simple truth, and not say anything for love or hatred; also to choose such an opportunity for writing as it may be lawful to think what they will, and write what they think, which is a rare happiness of the time.

Be First To
Albert Einstein :
"
Innumerable voices have been asserting for some time now that human society is passing through a crisis, that its stability has been gravely shattered. It is characteristic of such a situation that individuals feel indifferent or even hostile toward the group, small or large, to which they belong. In order to illustrate my meaning, let me record here a personal experience. I recently discussed with an intelligent and well-disposed man the threat of another war, which in my opinion would seriously endanger the existence of mankind, and I remarked that only a supranational organization would offer protection from that danger. Thereupon my visitor, very calmly and coolly, said to me Why are you so deeply opposed to the disappearance of the human race

Freddie Mercury :
"
"Do you see all the gold discs and awards? I have another bunch at the office, for which I no longer have any hanging space. Do you think I do this for fame?! I don't even know how much money I have in the bank today or how many companies I own - so do you think I do this for the money ?! No! Every time I write a song, it's like my baby, and i go into the studio to sing and record it because I want to know for myself - and nobody else - am I still good?!" - "Lover Of Life, Singer Of Songs" booklet.

"
We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, there is at last a drop which makes it run over. So in a series of kindness there is, at last, one which makes the heart run over.
