An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.
~Buddha
In order to discover new lands, one must be willing to lose sight of the shore for a very long time.
-- Andre Gide (1869–1951) French Writer
An idea that is developed and put into action is more important than an idea that exists only as an idea.
~Buddha
Ambition is like love, impatient both of delays and rivals.
~Buddha
I run great risk of failing. It may be that I shall encounter ruin where I look for reputation and a career of honor. The chances are perhaps more in favour of ruin than of success. But, whatever may be the chances, I shall go on as long as any means of carrying on the fight are at my disposal.
-- Anthony Trollope (1815-1882) English Novelist
