10 things about people

Hasina Suliman — Tue, 21 Dec 2010 19:23:17 +0000

My thoughts for today:)

Not everyone is sincere.
Actions speak louder than words
People lie to save their asses
Guys get more satisfaction from punching someone in the face, than women do from yelling
Your friends do care about you
Reaching out to people gives you comfort and solace
Balance is important
Small acts of kindness will help you feel less miserable
Its okay to disagree with someone. A difference of opinion is acceptable.
Some people never pass up the opportunity to prove that they’re idiots.

Top 10 Mahatma Gandhi Quotes

Hasina Suliman — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 11:12:37 +0000

Here are 10 top Gandhi quotations in celebration of Gandhi’s Birthday

1. Strength

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.

2. Government

What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy?

3. Self-Help

The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice within.

4. Government

It may be long before the law of love will be recognized in international affairs. The machineries of government stand between and hide the hearts of one people from those of another.

5. God

As soon as we lose the moral basis, we cease to be religious. There is no such thing as religion over-riding morality. Man, for instance, cannot be untruthful, cruel or incontinent and claim to have God on his side.

6. Life

There is more to life than simply increasing its speed.

7. Change

We must be the change we wish to see.

8. Self-Help

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

9. Truth

The moment there is suspicion about a person’s motives, everything he does becomes tainted.

10. Wisdom

Suffering cheerfully endured, ceases to be suffering and is transmuted into an ineffable joy.
