Barack ObamaIntimates are predestined.

Paulo CoelhoMy literature is much more the result of a paradox than that of an implacable logic, typical of police novels. The paradox is the tension that exists in my soul.

George Bernard ShawEducation comes from within; you get it by struggle and effort and thought.

Jim CarreyI was born in a very poor family. I used to sell tea in a railway coach as a child. My mother used to wash utensils and do lowly household work in the houses of others to earn a livelihood. I have seen poverty very closely. I have lived in poverty. As a child, my entire childhood was steeped in poverty.

Galileo GalileiI will seize fate by the throat; it shall certainly never wholly overcome me.
Ludwig van BeethovenI joyfully hasten to meet death. If it come before I have had opportunity to develop all my artistic faculties, it will come, my hard fate notwithstanding, too soon, and I should probably wish it later – yet even then I shall be happy, for will it not deliver me from a state of endless suffering?
Ludwig van BeethovenDestiny grants us our wishes, but in its own way, in order to give us something beyond our wishes.
Johann Wolfgang von GoetheI believe nothing happens by mistake. You know, the universe has a divine plan. That sounds dramatic.

Ralph Waldo EmersonSome men can live up to their loftiest ideals without ever going higher than a basement.
Theodore RooseveltThe fact that the adult American Negro female emerges a formidable character is often met with amazement, distaste and even belligerance. It is seldom accepted as an inevitable outcome of the struggle won by survivors, and deserves respect if not enthusiastic acceptance.

John SteinbeckMy life is a struggle.

Edmund HillaryA revolution is not a bed of roses.
Fidel CastroRemember upon the conduct of each depends the fate of all.

Florence NightingaleThere’ll always be serendipity involved in discovery.
Jeff BezosWhatever must happen ultimately should happen immediately.
