Relationships are hard, so you have to know what type of man you want by your side and what their values are, what is important in his life.
One should die proudly when it is no longer possible to live proudly.
I want to live out principles that became a part of my life in my 40s, 50s, and 60s. One principle is the universality of freedom.
Education must not simply teach work - it must teach Life.
In the end, life teaches us what is important, and that is family.
Let the standard of everybody's mind be raised to the heights of his own inner glory and then man will feel for himself the greatness of the higher values of life and would be tempted to bring them down into practical life and live them.
Our life is the sum total of all the decisions we make every day, and those decisions are determined by our priorities.

To create a world in which life can flourish and prosper we must replace the values and institutions of capitalism with values and institutions that honor life, serve life's needs, and restore money to its proper role as servant.
