indomitable will



Strength does not come from physical capacity.


It comes from an indomitable will.


Mahatma Gandhi

heroes


Why are there 

no more heroes ?

Because today 

all men are heroes

 albeit trodden and worn bare

For Whom the Bell Tolls



No man is an island,

Entire of itself.

Each is a piece of the continent,

A part of the main.

If a clod be washed away by the sea,

Europe is the less.

As well as if a promontory were.

As well as if a manor of thine own

Or of thine friend's were.

Each man's death diminishes me,

For I am involved in mankind.

Therefore, send not to know

For whom the bell tolls,

It tolls for thee.

make trouble


Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty 

when the State becomes lawless or corrupt.

anger and courage



"Hope has two beautiful daughters. 


Their names are anger and courage; 


anger at the way things are, 


and courage to see that they 


do not remain the way they are."
