There is no greatness where there is no simplicity, goodness and truth.

No human being is perfect. In our individual and collective lives every expression of greatness is followed, not by a period symbolizing completeness, but by a comma implying partialness. Following every affirmation of greatness is the conjunction "but." Naaman "was a great man," says the Old Testament, "but . . ."-that "but" reveals something tragic and disturbing-"but he was a leper.

Everybody can be great because everybody can serve.

Not everybody can be famous but everybody can be great, because greatness is determined by service.

If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way.

At times we are able to humiliate our worst enemy. Inevitably, his weak moments come and we are able to thrust in his side the spear of defeat. But this we must not do.
