The easiest and noblest way is not to be crushing others, but to be improving yourselves.

If you want to make the world a better place, take a look at yourself, and make a change.

People involve themselves in countless activities which they consider to be important, but they forget about one activity which is more important and necessary than any other, and which includes all other things: the improvement of their soul.

If you see that some aspect of your society is bad, and you want to improve it, there is only one way to do so: you have to improve people. And in order to improve people, you begin with only ONE thing: you can become better yourself.

I knuckle down with my demons, and with my weaknesses.
