It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while.

Steve Jobs Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new

Albert Einstein

One very important aspect of motivation is the willingness to stop and to look at things that no one else has bothered to look at. This simple process of focusing on things that are normally taken for granted is a powerful source of creativity.

Edward De Bono Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large Switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying END OF THE WORLD switch. please do not touch, the paint wouldn’t ever have time to dry.

You have brains in your head. you have feet in your shoes. you can steer yourself any direction you choose. you’re on your own. and you know what you are. and you are the one who’ll deside where to go.

Dr. Seuss, Oh, The Places You;ll Go

When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it always.

Mahatma Gandhi If you want to keep something concealed from your enemy, do not disclose in to your friend.

Hope is itself a species of happiness, and, perhaps, the chief happiness which this world affords: but, like all other pleasures immoderately enjoyed, the excesses of hope must be expiated by pain; and expectations improperly indulged must end in disappointment.

Samual Johnson, Letter, Jun. 8, 1762

We were like those who had climbed a mountain and reached the top. When we looked down we still wanted to go higher to realise our goals. Despite all the achievements [within the UAE Federation], we still have an ambition for more. That is my way of looking at things.

Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan

The pursuit of happiness is a most ridiculous phrase; if you pursue happiness you will NEVER find it

If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

H. Jackson Brown Jr. I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see.

Your time is limited so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

Steve Jobs
