There are only two ways to live your life: One is as though nothing is a miracle, the other is as though everything is. –

Albert Einstein

As an aviator, one of the most thrilling moments you can experience is breaking the sound barrier. To succeed, everything needs to be working together — every system and every person — for a final effort to break through. That last push is difficult and turbulent, but when you break through, it's indescribable ... quiet, peaceful and smooth

There are many people in this country and in this world

who are just as intelligent,just as hard working and just

as deserving of success as you are. But for whatever reason,

maybe a broken home,maybe poverty, maybe just bad luck,

these people did not enjoy all of the opportunities that you have.

Progress is humankind's ability to view more

and more of our differences,whether of race or religion or culture

or gender.It is your responsibility as educated people to reject

these prejudices and to help close the gaps of justice and

opportunity that still divide our nation and our world.

 

You've had a wonderful opportunity to become educated people,

but what really matters is not what you have learned and not

what is said to you on this day, but what you do with all the

days ahead of you.

 

Secretary Condoleezza Rice Boston, Massachusetts

 

Regard man as a mine rich in gems of inestimable value. Education can, alone, cause it to reveal its treasures, and enable mankind to benefit there from

Bahaullah

The great challenge facing society is to make social and economic provisions for the full and equal participation of women in all aspects of life while simultaneously reinforcing the critical functions of motherhood

I don't want to get to the end of my life

and find that I lived just the length of it.

I want to have lived the width of it as well.

 

Diane Ackerman (1948-present)

quoted in Newsweek, September 22, 1986

Try not to throw our lives away,

unless we're willing to pay the cost. 

Let's have some better lives lived than some better ones lost.

Sienna Mae Heath

Life is beautiful  , It is a gift given to you at birth, It is a gift of love,given to you,at no cost. You need to take care of this gift, Cherish it, Nourish it, and Have a vision for it.

 

Tahereh Foroughi-Khodadoost.

“Those about to retire must stop clinging to their accustomed way of life if they feel something is wrong. When you are part of something, you have to follow its rules. But there are other ways to live. You can choose from a variety of ways to live."

 

Kiyomi Arai

 

 

"The message is, 'Don't cling to cities forever--come back to the countryside and make a fresh start in life,'.

 

"It would be a huge loss--both for society and for individuals--to waste that experience,"

 

"Climbing up and down a mountain is an ascetic practice. I don't climb mountains to conquer them, but to meet gods,"

 

"Don't give up doing something just because you're 60, you need to change your point of view--there are places for those who worked hard and led honest lives.
