&ldquo;Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.&rdquo; - Laozi<br /> &quot;God does not give heed to the ambitiousness of our prayers, because he is always ready to give to us his light, not a visible light but an intellectual and spiritual one; but we are not always ready to receive it when we turn aside and down to other things out of a desire for temporal things.&quot;-Saint Augustine<br /> &quot;Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future.&quot; - John F Kennedy
