Great things are done when men and mountains meet. (William Blake)

Give a man a fish and feed him for a day, teach him how to fish and feed him for life. (Anon)

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. (Chinese proverb)

Learning is finding out what you already know.
Doing is demonstrating that you know it.
Teaching is reminding others that they know just as well as you.
You are all learners, doers, teachers. (Richard Bach - Illusions)

Though educational institutions will resist such change, there will be a revolution upon our hands that will finally seek to tap human potential in a creative manner, unconstipated by the linearity of systems that currently guide us. (Horst Abraham – Skiing Right)

Heightened awareness is a mystery only for our reason. In practice it is very simple. As with everything else we complicate matters by trying to make the immensity that surrounds us reasonable. (Carlos Castaneda - The Power of Silence)

There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts.
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world the master calls a butterfly. (Richard Bach - Illusions)

Fear to let fall a drop and you spill a lot. (Malay proverb)

Let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. (F. D. Roosevelt)

They can because they think they can. (Virgil)

Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans – that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. (W.H. Murray)

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now. (Goethe)

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone. And, as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. All these good things that surround us were once a dream in an artist’s mind. Let us now be artists.
(Nelson Mandela)
