Quote: Anthony Bourdain You'd have a hard time finding anything better than Barcelona for food, as far as being a hub. Given a choice between Barcelona and San Sebastian to die in, I'd probably want to die in San Sebastian. Anthony Bourdain
Quote: George Orwell And yet, just for a moment, what almost frightening power had sounded in that cry from only a few hundred throats! Why was it that they could never shout like that about anything that mattered? George Orwell
Quote: Anthony Bourdain No one understands and appreciates the American Dream of hard work leading to material rewards better than a non-American. Anthony Bourdain

Quote: Billy Graham I haven't written my own epitaph, and I'm not sure I should. Whatever it is, I hope it will be simple, and that it will point people not to me, but to the One I served. Billy Graham
Quote: Theodore Roosevelt The great body of our citizens shoot less as times goes on. We should encourage rifle practice among schoolboys, and indeed among all classes, as well as in the military services by every means in our power. Thus, and not otherwise, may we be able to assist in preserving peace in the world... The first step â in the direction of preparation to avert war if possible, and to be fit for war if it should come â is to teach men to shoot! Theodore Roosevelt
Quote: Mahatma Gandhi I claim that human mind or human society is not divided into watertight compartments called social, political and religious. All act and react upon one another. Mahatma Gandhi

Quote: Mother Teresa I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, âHow many good things have you done in your life?â rather he will ask, âHow much love did you put into what you did? Mother Teresa
Quote: Elon Musk We could definitely make a flying car - but that's not the hard part. The hard part is, how do you make a flying car that's super safe and quiet? Because if it's a howler, you're going to make people very unhappy. Elon Musk

Quote: Joni Mitchell Teacher, Romantic I loved Debussy, Stravinsky, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, anything with romantic melodies, especially the nocturnes. Nietzsche was a hero, especially with 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra.' He gets a bad rap; he's very misunderstood. He's a maker of individuals, and he was a teacher of teachers. Joni Mitchell Teacher, Romantic
Quote: Viktor E. Frankl Happiness, Success Don't aim at success. The more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue, and it only does so as the unintended side effect of one's personal dedication to a cause greater than oneself or as the by-product of one's surrender to a person other than oneself. Happiness must happen, and the same holds for success: you have to let it happen by not caring about it. I want you to listen to what your conscience commands you to do and go on to carry it out to the best of your knowledge. Then you will live to see that in the long-runâin the long-run, I say!âsuccess will follow you precisely because you had forgotten to think about it Viktor E. Frankl Happiness, Success

Quote: Friedrich Nietzsche One must not let oneself be misled: they say 'Judge not!' but they send to Hell everything that stands in their way. Friedrich Nietzsche
