- Myths are Real, Reality is a Myth
The "eye for eye" policy satisfies the logical mind, but this policy is also equally impractical. You may follow this policy against a person who is weaker than you. However, if the person is more powerful than you (like your boss, parents, government, the police), it would be disastrous to follow this policy, as it may lead to your total ruin.
Uncle Ben
- Spider-man
With great power, comes greater responsibility. If your heart is not as grand, you shall be consumed by your own might and hurt your loved ones unintentionally when you give vent to your rage.
Alexandra Bracken
- The Darkest Legacy
The scars of what had happened were still there, not glued together to try to minimize the appearance of them, but glowing with thin rivulets of gold - more beautiful for having once been broken.

Wings are of many kinds. Butterfly's wings, vulture's wings, eagle-wings, spread wings of white swans, dragonfly's serene wings, wings of albatross, lovely wings of humming birds, tiny wings of a fly or a bumble-bee-wings; and when they fly, they fly their best according to their ability of flying. We should not underestimate the size of those heavenly wings.

- Generational Gift
The ultimate gift we can give the world is to grow our tiny humans into adult humans who are independent thinkers, compassionate doers, conscious questioners, radical innovators, and passionate peacemakers. Our world doesn't need more adults who blindly serve the powerful because they've been trained to obey authority without question. Our world needs more adults who question and challenge and hold the powerful accountable.
Pete Seeger
- A Song
Songs are funny things. They can slip across borders. Proliferate in prisons. Penetrate hard shells. I always believed that the right song at the right moment could change history.

- Living
When you stop living your life based on what others think of you real life begins. At that moment, you will finally see the door of self acceptance opened.
James Clear
- Discipline
When scientists analyze people who appear to have tremendous self-control, it turns out those individuals aren't all that different from those who are struggling. Instead, 'disciplined' people are better at structuring their lives in a way that does not require heroic willpower and self-control.
