James Joyce

"Be of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere; and you will find joy in overcoming obstacles. Remember, no effort that we make to attain something beautiful is ever lost."
Helen Keller
"Each time we stand up for an ideal, or act to improve the lot of others, or strike out against injustice, we send forth a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance."
Robert F Kennedy
"We all have the drum major instinct. We all want to be important, to surpass others, to achieve distinction, to lead the parade. ...And the great issue of life is to harness the drum major instinct. It is a good instinct if you don't distort it and pervert it. Don't give it up. Keep feeling the need for being important. Keep feeling the need for being first. But I want you to be the first in love. I want you to be the first in moral excellence. I want you to be the first in generosity."
Martin Luther King
"Freedom from the desire for an answer is essential to the understanding of a problem."
J. Krishnamurti
"Whatever thought does it breeds misery, sorrow, conflict, and when thought realizes that, it will come to an end by itself, the vicious circle is broken; thought, which means time, has come to an end."
J. Krishnamurti
"The constant assertion of belief is an indication of fear."
J. Krishnamurti
"Freedom and love go together. Love is not a reaction. If I love you because you love me, that is mere trade, a thing to be bought in the market; it is not love. To love is not to ask anything in return, not even to feel that you are giving something- and it is only such love that can know freedom."
J. Krishnamurti
"Hitler and Mussolini were only the primary spokesmen for the attitude of domination and craving for power that are in the heart of almost everyone. Until the source is cleared, there will always be confusion and hate, wars and class antagonisms."
J. Krishnamurti
"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."
J. Krishnamurti
"The description is not the described; I can describe the mountain, but the description is not the mountain, and if you are caught up in the description, as most people are, then you will never see the mountain."
J. Krishnamurti
"Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay."
J. Krishnamurti
"We all want to be famous people, and the moment we want to be something we are no longer free."
J. Krishnamurti
"All ideologies are idiotic, whether religious or political, for it is conceptual thinking, the conceptual word, which has so unfortunately divided man."
J. Krishnamurti
"Why do you want to read others' books when there is the book of yourself?"
J. Krishnamurti
"If you begin to understand what you are without trying to change it, then what you are undergoes a transformation."
J. Krishnamurti
"A consistent thinker is a thoughtless person, because he conforms to a pattern; he repeats phrases and thinks in a groove."
J. Krishnamurti
"I maintain that Truth is a pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any religion, by any sect."
J. Krishnamurti
"There are no problems apart from the mind."
J. Krishnamurti
