King of the Birds, Lord of the Skies
Gather ye rose buds while ye may, old time is still a flying;
and this same rose that you see today, tomorrow will be dying.

Change the World

Consciously or unconsciously, every one of us does render some service or other. If we cultivate the habit of doing this service deliberately, our desire for service will steadily grow stronger, and will make, not only our own happiness, but that of the world at large.
- Mahatma Gandhi

1869-1948, Indian Political and Spiritual Leader

Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.
- Leo Tolstoy, Russian Writer


The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows; it is what the man or woman is able to do that counts.
-Booker T. Washington

1856-1915, Educator and Reformer
