Quote
Have the mind of a fox, the heart of a lion, the tongue of a serpent, the flair of a swan, and the soul of a dove.Have the fortitude of a camel, the courage of a bear, the strength of a bull, the fierceness of a wolf, and the might of an elephant.

Quote
At conception I had the soul of an Egyptian, at birth I had the soul of an Ethiopian, at death I had the soul of an African,and at resurrection I had the soul of God. At conception, I was a citizen of creation.At labor, I was a citizen of the world. At delivery, I was a citizen of the universe,and at death, I became a citizen of Heaven.

The weak dread obstacles,the foolish invite them,the wise avoid them,the strong battle them,and the great overcome them.The strong overwhelm opponents,the mighty crush them,the shrewd outwit them,the cowardly hide from them,but the enlightened transcend them.
