Hate and force cannot be in just a part of the world without having an effect on the rest of it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
-
Life is a series of experiences, each one of which makes us bigger, even though sometimes it is hard to realize this. For the world was built to develop character, and we must learn that the setbacks and grieves which we endure help us in our marching onward.
Henry Ford

Oscar Wilde
-
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.
William Shakespeare

Martin Luther King Jr.
