Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves.

I hold that the more helpless a creature the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of humankind.

If you can believe in something great, then you can achieve something great.

A person becomes great not be sitting on some high seat, but through higher qualities. Can a crow become an eagle by simply sitting on the top of a palatial building?

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