Laozi / Lao-Tzu – The mark of a moderate man
 The mark of a moderate man is freedom from his own ideas.Tolerant like the sky, all-pervading like sunlight, firm like a mountain, supple like a tree in the wind, he has no destination in view and makes use of anything life happens to bring his way. – Laozi / Lao-Tzu (604 BC-531 BC) |
Corrin Roosevelt – Achieiving results
| Nothing is as difficult as to achieve results in this world if one is filled full of great tolerance and the milk of human kindness. The person who achieves must generally be a one-ideaed individual, concentrated entirely on that one idea, and ruthless in his aspect toward other men and other ideas.
– Corrin Roosevelt (1961-1933) |
