“Reform is for people who have government connections, revolution is for the people!”

It’s liberty or it’s death. It’s freedom for everybody or freedom for nobody.

Policies change, and programs change, according to time but objective never changes.

Education is our passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today.

Who taught you to hate yourself?

I don’t even call it violence when it’s in self defense; I call it intelligence.

And just because you have colleges and universities doesn’t mean you have education.

If someone puts their hands on you make sure they never put their hands on anybody else again.

I believe in human beings, and that all human beings should be respected as such, regardless of their color.

Truth is on the side of the oppressed.

In all our deeds, the proper value and respect for time determines success or failure.

Sometimes you have to pick the gun up to put the Gun down.

Nobody can give you freedom. Nobody can give you equality or justice or anything. If you’re a man, you take it.

Everybody shall be accepted no matter what they stand for, you are not always going to agree on their faith.

People don’t realize how a man’s whole life can be changed by one book.

In fact, once he is motivated no one can change more completely than the man who has been at the bottom. I call myself the best example of that.

Only a fool would let his enemy teach his children.

Apologizing makes me feel vulnerable. And strong. Expressing gratitude makes me feel vulnerable. And strong. Maybe there’s something to this vulnerability/strength connection, eh?

Heartbreak does not have to be a meaningless experience. For many, it is a spiritual catalyst – a pathway to awakening to ones deepest desires for love, purpose and connection.

The more we are true to ourselves, the more we can connect with and contribute to the world.

If your goals aren’t synced with the substance of your heart, then achieving them won’t matter much.

If you look at suicides, most of them are connected to depression. And the mental health system just fails them. It’s so sad. We know what to do. We just don’t do it.

By and large, life will give you what you deserve and it doesn’t give a damn what you like. So it is up to you to take full responsibility to connect what you want with what you need to do to get it, and then to do those things.

Having a story is what people connect with, but the story alone doesn’t allow you to achieve greatness and results. It’s the day-to-day consistency of providing value to your audience.

It can be easy to become ‘friends’ or ‘connected’ with someone in a digital world, but it requires thought and strategy to convert social media connections into rewarding business relationships.
