I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community and as long as I live, it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live.
~ George Bernard Shaw
Every successful individual knows that his or her achievement depends on a community of persons working together.

~ Leroy Hood

“No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee.”
~ John Donne, No Man Is An Island - Meditation XVII
“Strength lies in differences, not in similarities”
~ Stephen R. Covey

~ John Donne

~ M. Scott Peck
I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the community, and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can.
~ George Bernard Shaw
If you were all alone in the universe with no one to talk to, no one with which to share the beauty of the stars, to laugh with, to touch, what would be your purpose in life? It is other life, it is love, which gives your life meaning. This is harmony. We must discover the joy of each other, the joy of challenge, the joy of growth.
~ Mitsugi Saotome
We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers connect us with our fellow men; and among these fibers, as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and they come back to us as effects.
