All mankind has its own particular beam of light its place in the sun. You are no more
able to stop the course of what's to be than you can stem the waves of the sea with your hand, or stay
the sun in the midst of heaven.
Mr. Jordan in Heaven Can Wait by Harry Segall
Give me a man or woman who has read a thousand books and you give me an interesting

you will not succeed in touching them with your hands,
but like the seafarer on the desert of waters,

and following them you reach your destiny.
Carl Schurz
You see, I haven't really thought very much. I was always afraid of what I might think
so it seemed safer not to think at all. But now I know. A thought is like a child inside our body.
It has to be born. If it dies inside you, part of you dies too!
Rachel in Inherit the Wind

Show me a man who cannot bother to do little things and I'll show you a man who cannot be trusted
to do big things.
