Advanced Debate

 

Reading, after a certain age, diverts the mind too much from its creative pursuits. Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking.

Albert Einstein

We have too many high sounding words, and too few actions that correspond with them.

Abigail Adams

Be great in act, as you have been in thought.

William Shakespeare

 

Do not meddle in the affairs of wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

J. R. R. Tolkien

 

 

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

Helen Keller
