Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.

George S. Patton

So long as we love we serve; so long as we are loved by others, I would almost say that we are indispensable; and no man is useless while he has a friend.

Poemen

A man should pray that God grant him, the possibility of doing a kind act, or say a kind word. Every good deed comes from God, and without Him, men cannot do them.

Gabriel Urgebadze

It is death that goes down to the center of the earth, the great burial church the earth is, and then to the curved ends of the universe, as light is said to do.
