"We draw our strength from the very despair in which we have been forced to live. We shall endure." ― Cesar Chavez Topic(s): Strength More From Cesar Chavez "If you really want to make a friend, go to someone’s house and eat with him… the people who give you their food give you their heart." "Real education should consist of drawing the goodness and the best out of our own students. What better books can there be than the book of humanity?" "It is possible to become discouraged about the injustice we see everywhere. But God did not promise us that the world would be humane and just. He gives us the gift of life and allows us to choose the way we will use our limited time on earth. It is an awesome opportunity." More In Strength "I report to you that our country is challenged at home and abroad: that it is our will that is being tried and not our strength; our sense of purpose and not our ability to achieve a better America."― Lyndon B. Johnson "Learning how to get in tune with your field of energy and understand how to create your energy, expand that energy, and move that energy through your body. Coming back to your center, and approaching life from that center-to-line place… That to me gave me strength and understanding and hopefully wisdom to solve life’s problems and challenges."― Erin Gray "There are simply more young people than there ever were. You get this feeling of strength. Also, large numbers can be a drawback, making it difficult to lose one’s anonymity."― John Knowles
