The qualities of a great man are vision, integrity, courage, understanding, the power of articulation, and profundity of character.

Courage isn't having the strength to go on - it is going on when you don't have strength.

I might bend, but I will NEVER break because it's in my nature as a strong woman.

This faith can give us courage to face the uncertainties of the future. It will give our tired feet new strength as we continue our forward stride toward the city of freedom.

I've learned to rely on the strength I inherited from all those who came before me-the grandmothers, sisters, aunts, and brothers who were tested with unimaginable hardships and still survived.

Let tyrants fear, I have always so behaved myself that, under God, I have placed my chiefest strength and safeguard in the loyal hearts and good-will of my subjects.
