-Alfred Adler
True wisdom is less presuming than folly. The wise man doubteth often, and changeth his mind; the fool is obstinate, and doubteth not; he knoweth all things but his own ignorance… To be satisfied with a little, is the greatest wisdom; and he that increaseth his riches, increaseth his cares; but a contented mind is a hidden treasure, and trouble findeth it not.
-Akhenation "Akhenation, 14 century Egyptian king"
All great truths begin as blasphemies.
-George Bernard Shaw
Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't goin' away.
-Elvis Presley
