"When we seek to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves." ― William Arthur Ward Topic(s): Best More From William Arthur Ward "The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails." "Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records." "The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires." More In Best "We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst of us and some evil in the best of us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies."― Martin Luther King, Jr. "Life is the art of being well deceived; and in order that the deception may succeed it must be habitual and uninterrupted."― William Hazlitt "Liberalism is an attitude rather than a set of dogmas – an attitude that insists upon questioning all plausible and self-evident propositions, seeking not to reject them but to find out what evidence there is to support them rather than their possible alternatives."― Morris Raphael Cohen
