Commemoration by Find a Nerd of a true hero.
He himself was an inspiration and what he said was motivation.
#10 People
Never give up, the only person that can stop your success is yourself, everything else is only an obstacle.“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
#9 Education
Its about making a connection with people.“If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart.”
#8 Life
Education is the key to success.“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”
#7 Racism
Boundaries are set after we are born.“No one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite.”
#6 Leadership
A good leader makes others feel they are contributing by acknowledgement.“Lead from the back — and let others believe they are in front.”
#5 Forgiveness
Hatred only brings stress to yourself and forgiveness brings peace.“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.”
#4 Freedom
Live how you want, but consider and respect others around you.“For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.”
#3 Perseverance
It always seems impossible when you don't know how.“It always seems impossible until it’s done.”
#2 Courage
Being able to look beyond your fear.“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”
#1 On society
A society is measured by its children.“The true character of a society is revealed in how it treats its children.”
