The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.
Where is this heaven? You have not even the power to see one grain of sand here. Can you see this earth of ours? The earth appears to us to be stationary, and the sun seems to go round us; but if we could get away from our earth, and look down from the sun upon it, we should see that it is moving round the sun in a circle, and that the sun is standing still. So it is with our conceptions of heaven and hell; they are not real, but only human conceptions.
“What is harder than rock, or softer than water? Yet soft water hollows out hard rock. Persevere.”
We reap what we sow. We are the makers of our own fate. None else has the blame, none has the praise.
I think the human race doesn't have a future if it doesn't go into space.
We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.
