gptkbp:famousQuote |
“The only way to deal with the future is to create it.”
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” “The true test of a man’s character is what he does when no one is watching.” “A great man is different from an eminent one in that he is ready to be the servant of society.” “The greatest danger is not that we will aim too high and miss it, but that we will aim too low and reach it.” “A man’s character is his fate.” “Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty.” “The best way to get a bad law repealed is to enforce it strictly.” “The man who is afraid of the people will never lead them.” “Justice_is_the_great_interest_of_man_on_earth.” |
