Mirra Alfassa (February 21st, 1878 – November 17th, 1973), was a yoga teacher, occultist, and spiritual guru. She was known to her followers as The Mother. She founded Sri Aurobindo Ashram, a school, and Auroville, an experimental township dedicated to human unity and evolution.
Below we list words of wisdom by Mirra Alfassa.
“Love is not sexual intercourse. Love is not vital attraction and interchange. Love is not the heart’s hunger for affection. Love is a mighty vibration coming straight from the One. And only the very pure and very strong are capable of receiving and manifesting it.”
“Listen, even before your religion was born not even two thousand years ago the Chinese had a very high philosophy and knew a path leading them to the Divine; and when they think of Westerners, they think of them as barbarians. And you are going there to convert those who know more about it than you? What are you going to teach them? To be insincere, to perform hollow ceremonies instead of following a profound philosophy and a detachment from life which lead them to a more spiritual consciousness?”
“Do not pretend – be. Do not promise – act. Do not dream – realize.”
“It is the Divine Presence that gives value to life. This Presence is the source of all peace, all joy, all security. Find this Presence in yourself and all your difficulties will disappear.”
“The true lasting quietness… comes from a complete consecration to the Divine”
“There should be somewhere upon earth a place that no nation could claim as its sole property, a place where all human beings of good will, sincere in their aspiration, could live freely as citizens of the world, obeying one single authority, that of the supreme truth.”
“Auroville (City of Dawn) is an ‘experimental’ township in Viluppuram district in the state of Tamil Nadu, India near Puducherry in South India. It was founded in 1968 by Mirra Richard (since her definitive settling in India called ‘[The] Mother’) and designed by architect Roger Anger. Auroville is meant to be a universal town where men and women of all countries are able to live in peace and progressive harmony, above all creeds, all politics and all nationalities. The purpose of Auroville is to realize human unity.”
“Japan possesses the vitality and concentrated energies of a nation which has not yet reached its zenith. That energy is one of the most striking features of Japan. It is visible everywhere, in everyone; the old and the young, the workmen, the women, the children, the students, all… display in their daily life the most wonderful storage of concentrated energy.”
“Consciousness, to be sure, is more effective than packets of medicine.”
“… after a month’s yoga I looked exactly eighteen. And someone who had seen me before, who had lived with me in Japan and came here, found it difficult to recognize me. He asked me, ‘But really, is it you?’ I said, ‘Of course!’”
“At the beginning of my present earthly existence I was put into touch with many people who said they had a great inner aspiration, an urge towards something deeper and truer, but were tied down, subjected, slaves of that brutal necessity of earning their living, and that this weighed down upon them so much, took way so much of their time and energy that they could not engage in any other activity, inner or outer. I heard that very often.”
“It is a rather unpleasant sensation to feel yourself pulled by the strings and made to do things whether you want to or not — that is quite irrelevant — but to be compelled to act because something pulls you by the strings, something which you do not even see — that is exasperating… I knew nobody who could help me and I did not have the chance that you have, someone who can tell you: ‘This is what you have to do!’ There was nobody to tell me that. I had to find it out all by myself. And I found it. I started at five.”
“Between the ages of 11 and 13 a series of psychic and spiritual experiences revealed to me not only the existence of God, but man’s possibility of uniting with Him, of realising Him integrally in consciousness and action, of manifesting Him upon earth in a life divine. This, along with a practical discipline for its fulfilment, was given to me during my body’s sleep by several teachers, some of whom I met afterwards on the physical plane. Later on, as the interior and exterior development proceeded, the spiritual and psychic relation with one of these Beings became more and more clear and frequent.”
“If ever I leave my body, my consciousness will remain with you.”
“I belong to no nation, no civilization, no society, no race, but to the Divine. I obey no master, no rules, no law, no social convention, but the Divine. To Him I have surrendered all, will, life and self; for Him I am ready to give all my blood, drop by drop, if such is His will, with complete joy, and nothing in his service can be sacrifice, for all is perfect delight.”

Words of Wisdom—Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson (May 25, 1803–April 27, 1882) was an American writer, poet, and philosopher who promoted free thought, individualism, and independence. He helped launch the transcendentalist movement in the 1800s, and believed in reincarnation. He was considered an extremist by many of his peers due to his unorthodox views on religion and social conventions.
Below we list some words of wisdom from Ralph Waldo Emerson.
“We may be partial, but Fate is not.”
“Fate is nothing but the deeds committed in a prior state of existence.”
“Polarity, or action and reaction, we meet in every part of nature; in darkness and light; in heat and cold; in the ebb and flow of waters; in male and female; in the inspiration and expiration of plants and animals; in the equation of quantity and quality in the fluids of the animal body; in the systole and diastole of the heart; in the undulations of fluids, and of sound; in the centrifugal and centripetal gravity; in electricity, galvanism, and chemical affinity. Super-induce magnetism at one end of a needle; the opposite magnetism takes place at the other end. If the south attracts, the north repels. To empty here, you must condense there. An inevitable dualism bisects nature, so that each thing is a half, and suggests another thing to make it whole; as, spirit, matter; man, woman; odd, even; subjective, objective; in, out; upper, under; motion, rest; yea, nay.”
“The ancestor of every action is a thought.”
“As we grow old, the beauty steals inward.”
“Manners require time, and nothing is more vulgar than haste.”
“Good is positive. Evil is merely privative, not absolute: it is like cold, which is the privation of heat. All evil is so much death or nonentity. Benevolence is absolute and real. So much benevolence as a man hath, so much life hath he.”
“Good men must not obey the laws too well.”
“It is the quality of the moment, not the number of days, or events, or of actors, that imports.”
“Truth is handsomer than the affectation of love. Your goodness must have some edge to it, else it is none.”
“We are wiser than we know.”
“We are rich only through what we give, and poor only through what we refuse.”
“Philosophically considered, the universe is composed of Nature and the Soul. Strictly speaking, therefore, all that is separate from us, all which Philosophy distinguishes as the ‘Not Me,’ that is, both nature and art, all other men and my own body, must be ranked under this name, ‘Nature.’”
“As long as a man stands in his own way, everything seems to be in his way.”
“No great man ever complains of want of opportunity.”
“The vegetable life does not content itself with casting from the flower or the tree a single seed, but it fills the air and earth with a prodigality of seeds, that, if thousands perish, thousands may plant themselves, that hundreds may come up, that tens may live to maturity; that, at least one may replace the parent.”
“Nature and books belong to the eyes that see them.”
“The highest revelation is that God is in every man.”
“What you are comes to you.”
“Great geniuses have the shortest biographies.”

Words of Wisdom: Helena Blavatsky
Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (August 12th, 1831 – May 8th, 1891) was a largely self-educated Russian occultist, spirit medium, and author who co-founded the Theosophical Society in 1875.
Below we list some words of wisdom by Helena Blavatsky.
“Theosophy blesses the world; Theology is its curse.”
“Matter is spirit at its lowest level. Spirit is matter at its highest level.”
“Dogmas are the toys that amuse and can satisfy but unreasoning children. They are the offspring of human speculation and prejudiced fancy.”
“Do not be afraid of your difficulties. Do not wish you could be in other circumstances than you are. For when you have made the best of an adversity, it becomes the stepping stone to a splendid opportunity.”
“The exercise of magical power is the exercise of natural powers, but superior to the ordinary functions of Nature. A miracle is not a violation of the laws of Nature, except for ignorant people. Magic is but a science, a profound knowledge of the Occult forces in Nature, and of the laws governing the visible or the invisible world. Spiritualism in the hands of an adept becomes Magic, for he is learned in the art of blending together the laws of the Universe, without breaking any of them and thereby violating Nature.”
“People keep repeating that the main things are love and compassion. Certainly love and compassion are the main things, but it takes knowledge to make love and compassion fruitful. … It takes just a second to say ‘love’. But to acquire knowledge for the well-being and blessing of humanity requires an eternity.”
“Man is spiritual being — a soul, in other words — and that this soul takes on different bodies from life to life on earth to order at last to arrive at such perfect knowledge, through repeated experience, as to enable one to assume a body fit to be the dwelling-place of a Mahatma or perfected soul. Then, they say, that particular soul becomes a spiritual helper to mankind.”
“There is no religion higher than Truth.”
“Everything in the Universe, throughout all its kingdoms, is conscious: i.e., endowed with a consciousness of its own kind and on its own plane of perception.”
“Knowledge increases in proportion to its use; that is, the more we teach the more we learn.”
“The world is not prepared yet to understand the philosophy of Occult Sciences – let them assure themselves first of all that there are beings in an invisible world, whether ‘Spirits’ of the dead or Elementals; and that there are hidden powers in man, which are capable of making a God of him on earth.”
“Be humble, if thou wouldn’t attain to wisdom. Be humbler still, when wisdom thou hast mastered.”
“The Universe is worked and guided from within outwards.”
“Who is the great man? He who is strongest in patience. He who patiently endures injury, and maintains a blameless life–he is a man indeed!”
“Whatever plane our consciousness may be acting in, both we and the things belonging to that plane are, for the time being, our only realities. As we rise in the scale of development we perceive that during the stages through which we have passed we mistook shadows for realities, and the upward progress of the Ego is a series of progressive awakenings, each advance bringing with it the idea that now, at last, we have reached “reality”; but only when we shall have reached the absolute Consciousness, and blended our own with it, shall we be free from the delusions produced by Maya [illusion].”
“Reflect upon the defects of your character: thoroughly realize their evils and the transient pleasures they give you, and firmly will that you shall try your best not to yield to them the next time.”
“We live in an age of prejudice, dissimulation and paradox, wherein, like dry leaves caught in a whirlpool, some of us are tossed helpless . . . ever struggling between our honest convictions and fear of that cruelest of tyrants — PUBLIC OPINION.”
“Civilization may progress, human nature will remain the same throughout all ages.”
“The chief difficulty which prevents men of science from believing in divine as well as in nature Spirits is their materialism.”
“But, if the knowledge of the occult powers of nature opens the spiritual sight of man, enlarges his intellectual faculties, and leads him unerringly to a profounder veneration for the Creator, on the other hand ignorance, dogmatic narrow-mindedness, and a childish fear of looking to the bottom of things, invariably leads to fetish-worship and superstition.”
“To act and act wisely when the time for action comes, to wait and wait patiently when it is time for repose, put man in accord with the rising and falling tides (of affairs). So that with nature and law at his back, and truth and beneficence as his beacon light, he may accomplish wonders. Ignorance of this law results in periods of unreasoning enthusiasm on the one hand, and depression on the other. Man thus becomes the victim of the tides when he should be their Master.”
“Little do the devout worshippers of the Vatican suspect, when they lift up their eyes in mute adoration upon the head of their God on Earth, the Pope, that what they admire, is after all, but the caricatured head-dress, the Amazon-like helmet of Pallas Athene, the heathen goddess Minerva! In fact, there is scarcely a rite or ceremony of the Christian Church that does not descend from Occultism.”
“Spiritualism is but a baby now, an unwelcome stranger, whom public opinion, like an unnatural foster mother, tries to crush out of existence.”

Words of Wisdom–Leonardo da Vinci
Leonardo da Vinci (April 15, 1452—May 2, 1519) was an Italian artist, scientist, architect, and engineer. He’s considered one of the greatest painters of all time, along with being a technological genius.
Incredibly, da Vinci had no formal training beyond being taught to write, read, and do basic math. He was also ambidextrous and believed in reincarnation.
Below we list some words of wisdom by Leonardo da Vinci.
“Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence.”
“You do ill if you praise, but worse if you censure, what you do not understand.”
“Just as food eaten without appetite is a tedious nourishment, so does study without zeal damage the memory by not assimilating what it absorbs.”
“Good men by nature, wish to know. I know that many will call this useless work… men who desire nothing but material riches and are absolutely devoid of that of wisdom, which is the food and only true riches of the mind.”
“It is better to imitate ancient than modern work.”
“Nature is the source of all true knowledge. She has her own logic, her own laws, she has no effect without cause nor invention without necessity.”
“Marriage is like putting your hand into a bag of snakes in the hope of pulling out an eel.”
“Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art.”
“Beyond a doubt truth bears the same relation to falsehood as light to darkness.”
“Men of lofty genius sometimes accomplish the most when they work least, for their minds are occupied with their ideas and the perfection of their conceptions, to which they afterwards give form.”
“Nature never breaks her own laws.”
“Just as courage imperils life, fear protects it.
“Necessity is the mistress and guide of nature. Necessity is the theme and inventress of nature, her curb and her eternal law.”
“Every action needs to be prompted by a motive.”
“You can have no dominion greater or less than that over yourself.”
“Common Sense is that which judges the things given to it by other senses.”
“You can have no dominion greater or less than that over yourself.”
“As every divided kingdom falls, so every mind divided between many studies confounds and saps itself.”
“Painting is concerned with all the 10 attributes of sight; which are: Darkness, Light, Solidity and Color, Form and Position, Distance and Propinquity, Motion and Rest.”
“There are four Powers: memory and intellect, desire and covetousness. The two first are mental and the others sensual. The three senses: sight, hearing and smell cannot well be prevented; touch and taste not at all.”
“Human subtlety will never devise an invention more beautiful, more simple or more direct than does nature because in her inventions nothing is lacking, and nothing is superfluous.”
“Intellectual passion drives out sensuality.”
“The Medici created and destroyed me.”
“Science is the captain, and practice the soldiers.”
“Anyone who conducts an argument by appealing to authority is not using his intelligence; he is just using his memory.”
“The function of muscle is to pull and not to push, except in the case of the genitals and the tongue.”
“The beginnings and ends of shadow lie between the light and darkness and may be infinitely diminished and infinitely increased. Shadow is the means by which bodies display their form. The forms of bodies could not be understood in detail but for shadow.”
“All our knowledge has its origins in our perceptions.”
“In rivers, the water that you touch is the last of what has passed and the first of that which comes; so with present time.”
“Time abides long enough for those who make use of it.”

Words of Wisdom: Alice Bailey
Alice Ann Bailey (June 16, 1880 – December 15, 1949) wrote over twenty-four books on theosophical subjects, and was one of the first writers to use the term New Age. Her books cover topics such as how spirituality relates to meditation, psychology, society, healing, and the Solar System. She believed most of her work was channeled from a Master of Wisdom named Djwal Khul.
Below we list some words of wisdom from Alice Bailey.
“The entire universe is a great theatre of mirrors.”
“Reincarnation is implicit in the manifested universe and is a basic and fundamental.”
“The Masonic movement… is the custodian of the law; it is the home of the Mysteries and the seat of initiation. It holds in its symbolism the ritual of Deity, and the way of salvation is pictorially preserved in its work. It is a far more occult organization than can be realised, and is intended to be the training school for the coming advanced occultists. In its ceremonials lie hid the wielding of the forces connected with the growth and life of the kingdoms of nature and the unfoldment of the divine aspects in man.”
“We are all the children of God”
“I am the Soul.
I am the Light Divine.
I am Love.
I am Will.
I am Fixed Design.”
“I suggest that just as self-consciousness is the goal for all the subhuman forms of life, and as group consciousness, or the consciousness of the Heavenly Man, is the goal for the human being, so for him, also, there may be a goal, and for him the achievement may be the development of God consciousness.”
“Healing does not come through intense affirmation of divinity, or by simply pouring out love and the expression of a vague mysticism. It comes through mastering an exact science of contact, impression, of invocation plus an understanding of the subtle apparatus of the etheric vehicle.”
“Right human relations is the only true peace.”
“Forgetting the things that lie behind, I will strive towards my higher spiritual possibilities. I dedicate myself anew to the service of the Coming One and will do all I can to prepare men’s minds and hearts for that event. I have no other life intention.”
“The clue to one’s next step toward the door of initiation may be revealed at the Full Moon during the sign of Taurus.”
“People have sought to adjust the truth to the hour instead of adjusting the hour to the truth, and in diplomacy they have endeavoured to bring about as much of the reality as they deem wise.”
“In fifty years time, the need for true psychics and conscious mediums (such as H.P.B., for instance [Helena Petrova Blavatsky]) will be very great if the Masters’ plans are to be carried through to fruition, and the movement must be set on foot in preparation for the coming of Him for Whom all nations wait”

Words of Wisdom—Rabindranath Tagore
Rabindranath Tagore (May 7, 1861–August 7 1941) was an Indian writer, philosopher, and reformer who was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. He was instrumental in reshaping Indian literature, and the Sri Lankan national anthem was inspired by his work.
Below we list some words of wisdom from Rabindranath Tagore.
“He who is too busy doing good finds no time to be good.”
“He who wants to do good knocks at the gate: he who loves finds the door open.”
“It is very simple to be happy, but it is very difficult to be simple.”
“Compliments win friends, honesty loses them.”
“The highest education is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.”
“The main object of teaching is not to give explanations, but to knock at the doors of the mind.”
“The one who plants trees, knowing that he will never sit in their shade, has at least started to understand the meaning of life.”
A teacher can never truly teach unless he is still learning himself. A lamp can never light another lamp unless it continues to burn its own flame. The teacher who has come to the end of his subject, who has no living traffic with his knowledge but merely repeats his lesson to his students, can only load their minds, he cannot quicken them.”
“I’ve travelled all around the world to see the rivers and the mountains, and I’ve spent a lot of money. I have gone to great lengths, I have seen everything, but I forgot to see just outside my house a dewdrop on a little blade of grass, a dewdrop which reflects in its convexity the whole universe around you.”
“Go not to the temple to put flowers upon the feet of God, first fill your own house with the fragrance of love. Go not to the temple to light candles before the altar of God, first remove the darkness of sin from your heart. Go not to the temple to bow down your head in prayer, first learn to bow in humility before your fellow men. Go not to the temple to pray on bended knees, first bend down to lift someone who is down trodden. Go not to the temple to ask for forgiveness for your sins, first forgive from your heart those who have sinned against you.”
“The most important lesson that man can learn from life, is not that there is pain in this world, but that it is possible for him to transmute it into joy.”
“The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.”
“Unless you have found God in your own soul, the whole world will seem meaningless to you.”
“The cure for all the illness of life is stored in the inner depth of life itself, the access to which becomes possible when we are alone. This solitude is a world in itself, full of wonders and resources unthought of. It is absurdly near; yet so unapproachably distant.”
“Blessed is he whose fame does not outshine his truth.”
“We come nearest to the great when we are great in humility.”
“Power said to the world, “You are mine.” The world kept it prisoner on her throne. Love said to the world, “I am thine.” The world gave it the freedom of her house.”
“I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.”
“To find God, you must welcome everything.”
“Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because the dawn has come.”

Words of Wisdom— Rudolf Steiner
Rudolf Joseph Lorenz Steiner (February 25th or 27th, 1861–March 30th, 1925) was an Austrian occultist, social reformer, architect, esotericist, and clairvoyant. He published may works including The Philosophy of Freedom, and founded an esoteric spiritual movement called anthroposophy.
Steiner often noted the core spiritual unity of all humans and harshly criticized racial prejudice. He believed the individual nature of any person is far more important than race, ethnicity, nationality, or religion. He also believed that those aspects of each person are transient and superficial because of reincarnation, and how we all incarnate in many different countries, religions, and cultures.
Steiner’s work has influenced philosophers, writers, economist, ecologist, artists, actors, cinema directors, composers, and conductors
Below we list some words of wisdom by Rudolf Steiner.
“Receive the children in reverence, educate them in love, and send them forth in freedom.”
“To be free is to be capable of thinking one’s own thoughts – not the thoughts merely of the body, or of society, but thoughts generated by one’s deepest, most original, most essential and spiritual self, one’s individuality.”
“Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.”
“Love is higher than opinion. If people love one another the most varied opinions can be reconciled – thus one of the most important tasks for humankind today and in the future is that we should learn to live together and understand one another. If this human fellowship is not achieved, all talk of development is empty.”
“To truly know the world, look deeply within your own being; to truly know yourself, take real interest in the world.”
“The heart of the Waldorf method is that education is an art-it must speak to the child’s experience. To educate the whole child, his heart and his will must be reached, as well as the mind.”
“When human beings meet together seeking the spirit with unity of purpose then they will also find their way to each other.”
“A healthy social life is found only, when in the mirror of each soul the whole community finds its reflection, and when in the whole community the virtue of each one is living.”
“Intuition is for thinking what observation is for perception. Intuition and observation are the sources of our knowledge.”
“The smallest thing in its rightful place can lead to the highest goals.”
“You have no idea how unimportant is all that the teacher says or does not say on the surface, and how important what he himself is as teacher.”
“Wherever love and compassion are active in life, we can perceive the magic breath of the spirit blowing through the sense world.”
“Our highest endeavour must be to develop individuals who are able out of their own initiative to impart purpose & direction to their lives.”
“For every human illness, somewhere in the world there exists a plant which is the cure. I believe that there is a healing potential locked inside plants which is integral with their evolution, just as it is part of human evolution to learn to tap this wonderful gift of Nature.”
“Love starts when we push aside our ego and make room for someone else.”
“If we do not believe within ourselves this deeply rooted feeling that there is something higher than ourselves, we shall never find the strength to evolve into something higher.”
“When the human being hears music, he has a sense of wellbeing, because these tones harmonize with what he has experienced in the world of his spiritual home.”
“Just as in the body, eye and ear develop as organs of perception, as senses for bodily processes, so does a man develop in himself soul and spiritual organs of perception through which the soul and spiritual worlds are opened to him. For those who do not have such higher senses, these worlds are dark and silent, just as the bodily world is dark and silent for a being without eyes and ears.”
“When we raise ourselves through meditation to what unites us with the spirit, we quicken something within us that is eternal and unlimited by birth and death. Once we have experienced this eternal part in us, we can no longer doubt its existence. Meditation is thus the way to knowing and beholding the eternal, indestructible, essential centre of our being.”

Words of Wisdom—Mahatma Gandhi
Mahatma Gandhi (October 2, 1869–January 30 1948) was an Indian civil rights leader who was instrumental in India’s independence from Great Britain. He promoted non-violent resistance and helped rally workers against discrimination and government excess taxation.
Below we list some words of wisdom from Mahatma Gandhi.
“Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state becomes lawless or corrupt.”
“Fear of disease killed more men than disease itself.”
“Vaccination is a barbarous practice and one of the most fatal of all the delusions current in our time. Conscientious objectors to vaccination should stand alone, if need be, against the whole world, in defense of their conviction.”
“Our greatest ability as humans is not to change the world; but to change ourselves.”
“Many people, especially ignorant people, want to punish you for speaking the truth, for being correct, for being you. Never apologize for being correct, or for being years ahead of your time. If you’re right and you know it, speak your mind. Speak your mind. Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is still the truth.”
“There are two days in the year that we cannot do anything, yesterday and tomorrow.”
“It’s easy to stand in the crowd but it takes courage to stand alone.”
“Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”
“Relationships are based on four principles: respect, understanding, acceptance and appreciation.”
“Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. Manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. Consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits. Acknowledge and watch your habits, for they shall become your values. Understand and embrace your values, for they become your destiny.”
“God has no religion.”
“For me, the different religions are beautiful flowers from the same garden, or they are branches of the same majestic tree. Therefore, they are equally true, though being received and interpreted through human instruments equally imperfect.”
“A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.”
“Every home is a university and the parents are the teachers.”
“We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to be found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies in the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.”
“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall…think of it, always.”
“Forgive and forget, but never forget to forgive. You may find a happier heart is the key to a happier life.”
“It is for us to make the effort. The result is always in God’s hands.”

Words of Wisdom–Marie Curie
Marie Salomea Skłodowska–Curie (November 7th, 1867 – July 4th, 1934) was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist who did pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win it twice, and the only person to win it in two scientific fields. She was also, in 1906, the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris.
Below we list some words of wisdom by Marie Curie.
“Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.”
“Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.”
“Be less curious about people and more curious about ideas.”
“First principle: never to let one’s self be beaten down by persons or by events.”

“I never see what has been done; I only see what remains to be done.”
“We must have perseverance and above all confidence in ourselves.”
“We must not forget that when radium was discovered no one knew that it would prove useful in hospitals. The work was one of pure science. And this is a proof that scientific work must not be considered from the point of view of the direct usefulness of it. It must be done for itself, for the beauty of science, and then there is always the chance that a scientific discovery may become like the radium a benefit for humanity.”
“All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.”

“I have frequently been questioned, especially by women, of how I could reconcile family life with a scientific career. Well, it has not been easy.”
“I have frequently been questioned, especially by women, of how I could reconcile family life with a scientific career. Well, it has not been easy.”
“Sometimes my courage fails me and I think I ought to stop working, live in the country and devote myself to gardening.

Words of Wisdom—Genghis Khan
Genghis Khan (1162 – August 25, 1227) is considered to be one of the greatest conquerors ever. He founded the Mongol Empire, which eventually became the largest contiguous kingdom in the world. Under his rule of religious tolerance, all were free to practice the religion of their choice. He was also instrumental in expanding global trade and communication through the success of the Silk Road.
Below we list some words of wisdom from Genghis Khan.
“A leader can never be happy until his people are happy.”
“I will rule them by fixed laws so that rest and happiness shall prevail in the world.”
“Say ye unto the Khwarizmi that I am the sovereign of the sunrise, and he is the sovereign of the sunset. Let there be between us a firm treaty of friendship, amity, and peace, and let traders and caravans on both sides come and go.”
“When it was wet, we bore the wet together, when it was cold, we bore the cold together.”
“The strength of a wall is neither greater nor less than the courage of the men who defend it.”
“Not even a mighty warrior can break a frail arrow when it is multiplied and supported by its fellows. As long as you brothers support one another and render assistance to one another, your enemies can never gain the victory over you. But if you fall away from each other your enemy can break you like frail arrows, one at a time.”
“Those who were adept and brave fellows I have made military commanders. Those who were quick and nimble I have made herders of horses. Those who were not adept I have given a small whip and sent to be shepherds.”
“Even when a friend does something you do not like, he continues to be your friend.”
“If unable to abstain from drinking, a man may get drunk three times a month; if he does it more than three times he is culpable; if he gets drunk twice a month it is better; if once a month, this is still more laudable; and if one does not drink at all what can be better? But where can I find such a man? If such a man were found he would be worthy of the highest esteem.”
“I hate luxury. I exercise moderation…It will be easy to forget your vision and purpose one you have fine clothes, fast horses and beautiful women. In which case, you will be no better than a slave, and you will surely lose everything.”
“I am from the Barbaric North. I wear the same clothing and eat the same food as the cowherds and horse-herders. We make the same sacrifices and we share our riches.”
“As my calling is high, the obligations incumbent upon me are also heavy; and I fear that in my ruling there may be something wanting.”
“An action committed in anger is an action doomed to failure.”
“Just as God gave different fingers to the hand, so has He given different ways to men.”
“Perhaps my children will live in stone houses and walled towns – Not I.”
“The merit in action lies in finishing it to the end.”
“There is no good in anything until it is finished.”
