    Quotations by A. A. Milne (42)

    Alan Alexander Milne was an English author, best known for his books about the teddy bear Winnie-the-Pooh and for various poems. Here are some representative quotations by A.A. Milne:

    A bear, however hard he tries, grows tubby without exercise.

    A house with daffodils in it is a house lit up, whether or no the sun be shining outside. Daffodils in a green bowl and let it snow if it will.

    A little Consideration, a little Thought for Others, makes all the difference.

    But after all, what are birthdays? Here today and gone tomorrow.

    Don't underestimate the value of doing nothing, of just going along, listening to all the thing you can't hear, and not bothering.

    For I am a bear of very little brain and long words bother me.

    Golf is so popular simply because it is the best game in the world at which to be bad.

    Good judgment comes from experience, and experience well, that comes from poor judgment.

    Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit. / There isn't any other stair quite like it. / I'm not at the bottom, I'm not at the top. / So this is the stair where I always stop.

    His dress told her nothing, but his face told her things which she was glad to know.

    How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.

    How sweet to be a cloud. Floating in the blue!

    If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together there is something you must always remember.

    If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together... there is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we're apart... I'll always be with you.

    If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.

    If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.

    I'll give you three guesses, Rabbit. Digging holes in the ground? Wrong. Leaping from branch to branch of a young oak tree? Wrong. Waiting for somebody to help me out of the river? Right. Give Rabbit time, and he'll always get the answer.

    It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like ‘What about lunch?

    It's not much of a tail, but I'm sort of attached to it.

    Never forget me, because if i thought you would, I'd never leave.

    No sensible author wants anything but praise.

    Nobody can be uncheered with a balloon.

    On Wednesday, when the sky is blue, and I have nothing else to do, I sometimes wonder if it's true that who is what and what is who.

    One of the advantages of being disorganized is that one is always having surprising discoveries.

    Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it is not all mixed up.

    Owl is the grand and rather clever old man of the forest. He can also spell Tuesday.

    Owl looked at him, and wondered whether to push him off the tree; but, feeling that he could always do it afterwards, he tried once more to find out what they were talking about.

    People say nothing is impossible, but I do nothing every day.

    Promise me you’ll always remember: You’re braver than you believe and stronger than you seem and smarter than you think.

    Promise me you'll never forget me because if I thought you would, I'd never leave.

    She turned to the sunlight and shook her yellow head, and whispered to her neighbor. Winter is dead.

    Some people talk to animals. Not many listen though. That's the problem.

    Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.

    Sometimes, if you stand on the bottom rail of a bridge and lean over to watch the river slipping slowly away beneath you, you will suddenly know everything there is to be known.

    The end of the summer is not the end of the world. Here's to October...

    There is something you must always remember. You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

    There must be somebody there, because somebody must have said Nobody.

    Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them.

    We'll be friends until forever, just you wait and see.

    What I say is that, if a man really likes potatoes, he must be a pretty decent sort of fellow.

    You can't help respecting anybody who can spell TUESDAY, even if he doesn't spell it right; but spelling isn't everything. There are days when spelling Tuesday simply doesn't count.

    You can't stay in your corner of the forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.

    Quotations by A. P. J. Abdul Kalam (30)

    A. P. J. Abdul Kalam was an Indian aerospace scientist and politician who served as the 11th President of India from 2002 to 2007. He worked for Defence Research and Development Organisation and Indian Space Research Organisation and was involved in India’s civilian space programme and military missile development efforts. Here are some representative quotations by A. P. J. Abdul Kalam:

    All Birds find shelter during a rain. But Eagle avoids rain by flying above the Clouds. Problems are common, but attitude makes the difference!!!

    Be more dedicated to making solid achievements than in running after swift but synthetic happiness.

    Climbing to the top demands strength, whether it is to the top of Mount Everest or to the top of your career.

    Confidence and hard work is the best medicine to kill the disease called failure. It will make you successful person.

    Creativity is the key to success in the future, and primary education is where teachers can bring creativity in children at that level.

    Do we not realize that self respect comes with self reliance?

    Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended.

    I was willing to accept what I couldn't change.

    If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are father, the mother and the teacher.

    I'm not a handsome guy, but I can give my hand to someone who needs help. Beauty is in the heart, not in the face.

    India has to be transformed into a developed nation, a prosperous nation and a healthy nation, with a value system.

    It is very easy to defeat someone, but it is very hard to win someone.

    Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow.

    Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work.

    Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success.

    Never stop fighting until you arrive at your destined place - that is, the unique you. Have an aim in life, continuously acquire knowledge, work hard, and have perseverance to realize the great life.

    Pondering must turn out to be your cash asset, regardless of whichever ups and downs you occur throughout in the everyday living.

    Small aim is a crime; have great aim.

    Success is when your signature becomes an autograph.

    Teaching is a very noble profession that shapes the character, caliber, and future of an individual. If the people remember me as a good teacher, that will be the biggest honour for me.

    The bird is powered by its own life and by its motivation.

    The Earth is the most powerful and energetic planet.

    The youth need to be enabled to become job generators from job seekers.

    There are forces in life working for you and against you. One must distinguish the beneficial forces from the malevolent ones and choose correctly between them.

    Thinking should become your capital asset, no matter whatever ups and down you come across in your life.

    Those who cannot work with their hearts achieve but a hollow, half-hearted success that breeds bitterness all around.

    To succeed in your mission, you must have single-minded devotion to your goal.

    We should not give up and we should not allow the problem to defeat us.

    You cannot change your future, but you can change your habits, and surely your habits will change your future.

    You have to dream before your dreams can come true.

    Quotations by A. W. Tozer (17)

    Aiden Wilson Tozer was an American Christian pastor, author, magazine editor and spiritual mentor. For his accomplishments, he received honorary doctorates from Wheaton and Houghton Colleges. Here are some representative quotations by A. W. Tozer:

    Always, everywhere God is present, and always He seeks to discover Himself to each one.

    As long as you set yourself up as a little god to which you must be loyal there will be those who will delight to offer affront to your idol.

    Grace is the good pleasure of God that inclines him to bestow benefits on the undeserving.

    Holiness, as taught in the Scriptures, is not based upon knowledge on our part. Rather, it is based upon the resurrected Christ in-dwelling us and changing us into His likeness.

    I'm not afraid of the devil. The devil can handle me †he's got judo I never heard of. But he can't handle the One to whom I'm joined, he can't handle the One to whom I'm united, he can't handle the One whose nature dwells in my nature."

    Jesus calls us to his rest, and meekness is His method. The meek man cares not at all who is greater than he, for he has long ago decided that the esteem of the world is not worth the effort.

    Nothing of God dies when a man of God dies.

    Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will.

    Religion today is not transforming people; rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society; it is descending to society's own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smiling accepting its surrender.

    Salvation is from our side a choice, from the divine side it is a seizing upon, an apprehending, a conquest by the Most High God. Our accepting and willing are reactions rather than actions. The right of determination must always remain with God.

    Sometimes when we get overwhelmed, we forget how big God is.

    The Bible was written in tears, and to tears it yields its best treasures.

    The cross stands high above the opinions of men and to that cross all opinions must come at last for judgment.

    The heart of the world is breaking under this load of pride and pretense. There is no release from our burden apart from the meekness of Christ.

    The meek man will attain a place of soul rest. As he walks on in meekness he will be happy to let God defend him. The old struggle to defend himself is over. He has found the peace which meekness brings.

    We understand and acknowledge that the Resurrection has placed a glorious crown upon all of Christ's sufferings!

    What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.

    Quotations by Aaron Soltys (3)

    Aaron Soltys has lived the kind of life that would have left many hardened, cynical and self-centered. And he was all three for several years. It was only after the recession hit, he lost his job and went bankrupt that he sat down and had a good hard look at his approach to life. And then he began to read. As he did, he reached deep down inside to explore his thinking and how he was reacting as his life unfolded, essentially uncontrollable, before him. And he changed. Gradually, he began to see people and situations from a more empowering perspective. And he gained control of his life in the process. Aaron is now working on his next self-help book based again on the principles of Inner Peace Made Easy. Here are some representative quotations by Aaron Soltys:

    Embrace your grief and your sadness felt towards those that have passed and remember them with love.

    Replace your grief with love and appreciation. That is truly what any who have departed from our lives would wish for us.

    We must also look into our feelings of grief and loss. When we accept that everything is constantly changing, when we accept the inevitability that people and animals die, we can deal with pain in a much better fashion.

    Quotations by Aberjhani (29)

    Aberjhani is an American historian, columnist, novelist, poet, artist and editor. Although well known for his blog articles on literature and politics, he is perhaps best known as co-author of Encyclopedia of the Harlem Renaissance and author of The River of Winged Dreams. Here are some representative quotations by Aberjhani:

    A big part of the fun of entering a New Year is making a list of noble resolutions, some of which we work hard to keep and some of which become lost causes shortly after midnight on New Year's Eve.

    A bridge of silver wings stretches from the dead ashes of an unforgiving nightmare to the jeweled vision of a life started anew.

    As life in general constituted much pain in the form of struggles against poverty, disease, ignorance, and emotional anguish, what more civilized way for people to alleviate the same than by giving themselves to one another as brothers and sisters in deed, as well as in word?

    At the edge of madness you howl diamonds and pearls.

    Beneath the armor of skin/and/bone/and/mind most of our colors are amazingly the same.

    Classic romantic love is an emotional attraction between two individuals in which they may share a heightened awareness of mutual adoration. Erotic love, traditionally, has been described as shared sexual attraction.

    Compassion crowns the soul with its truest victory.

    Dare to love yourself as if you were a rainbow with gold at both ends.

    Discourse and critical thinking are essential tools when it comes to securing progress in a democratic society. But in the end, unity and engaged participation are what make it happen.

    Even when muddy your wings sparkle bright wonders that heal broken worlds.

    First steps are always the hardest but until they are taken the notion of progress remains only a notion and not an achievement.

    I called it a baptism in flaming ink that forced me to shed my shyness about recognizing myself as a poet and to accept the fact that life had never given me any choice in the matter. And then I had to discover exactly what that meant.

    In the days when hyenas of hate suckle the babes of men, and jackals of hypocrisy pimp their mothers’ broken hearts, may children not look to demons of ignorance for hope.

    In your hands winter is a book with cloud pages that snow pearls of love.

    Individual cultures and ideologies have their appropriate uses but none of them erase or replace the universal experiences, like love and weeping and laughter, common to all human beings.

    Knowledge planted in truth grows in truth. Strength born of peace loses nothing to hate.

    Now come the whispers bearing bouquets of moonbeams and sunlight tremblings.

    Rainbows introduce us to reflections of different beautiful possibilities so we never forget that pain and grief are not the final options in life.

    Shine your soul with the same egoless humility as the rainbow and no matter where you go in this world or the next, love will find you, attend you, and bless you.

    Some of the smartest people in the world never talk cause they got more sense than everybody else.

    Souls reconstructed with faith transform agony into peace.

    The acknowledgement of a single possibility can change everything.

    The more sincere the soul, the heavier the cross endured.

    The words ‘I Love You' kill, and resurrect millions, in less than a second.

    This fire that we call Loving is too strong for human minds. But just right for human souls.

    This is what our love is––a sacred pattern of unbroken unity sewn flawlessly invisible inside all other images, thoughts, smells, and sounds.

    This world's anguish is no different from the love we insist on holding back.

    Valentine's Day itself, like most holidays in the modern era, has been heavily influenced by commercialism that focuses on the appeal of romantic fantasies.

    You were born a child of light’s wonderful secret— you return to the beauty you have always been.

    Quotations by Abhijit Naskar (54)

    Abhijit Naskar (born October 9, 1991) is one of the world’s celebrated Neuroscientists, an International Bestselling Author of numerous books and a popular advocate of mental health and global harmony. He has revealed to the world how the basic awareness of the brain can redefine our perception of life and make our daily life much more cheerful and meaningful. His contributions in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience have helped the world tackle the issues of mental illness, prejudice, hate, extremism, discrimination and segregation more effectively. Here are some representative quotations by Abhijit Naskar:

    A fulfilling long-term relationship is not accomplished by just finding the one. It is rather a co-operation between two passionate and highly motivated partners working together, figuring out every single situation holding hands.

    An hour of innocence builds more trust than years of diplomacy.

    At the beginning both the individuals pose to be anything but themselves.

    Baptize yourself with the flow of rational thinking and the world is bound to become rational.

    Being a doctor, is not simply about having an understanding of anatomy and sickness, rather it is about having an understanding of true wellness and more importantly, it is about understanding the intensity of the concern of the patient’s next of kin.

    Being a Stoic does not mean being a robot. Being a Stoic means remaining calm both at the height of pleasure and the depths of misery.

    Blockchain itself is not dangerous, but if we start using decentralized blockchain as a complete substitute for our traditional transaction methods, then I am afraid, it would destroy the very human foundation of our financial system.

    Brotherhood is my father, harmony is my mother and peace is my wife.

    Centralized blockchain can be a great boon to the society, especially in the developing parts of the world, whereas decentralized blockchain will only cause chaos and destruction.

    Cheating in relationship is a sign of self-regulation failure. When it happens ones, it is a mistake. When it happens twice, it is unfortunate. But when it happens thrice or more, it is a pattern indicating primitive, uncivilized inhuman behavior.

    Compatibility doesn't determine the fate of a marriage, how you deal with the incompatibilities, does.

    Conscience is not white, black or brown. Conscience is human. It is beyond race it is beyond religion, it is beyond all sectarianism.

    Courage, conscience and compassion, these are the real Trinity of a civilized society.

    Education enables the humans to achieve their fullest mental and physical potential in both personal and social life.

    Either one is promiscuous or in a relationship - it cannot be both at the same time.

    Extremism is injurious to peace.

    Freedom to practice one's own religion, doesn't mean belittling other religions.

    Homosexuality is immutable, irreversible and nonpathological.

    Homosexuality is neither a sin, nor an anomaly or a disease. It is an evolutionary variation.

    If education were the same as information, the encyclopedias would be the greatest sages in the world.

    If there is trust at the root of the relationship, if the partners make an effort to keep it interesting, if difficulties are handled tactfully and if you can appreciate every single deed of your partner no matter how insignificant it is, the flames of love would never burn out and your love can truly 'live happily ever after'.

    If we don't take responsibility of what happens to our society, then no amount of Independence can improve human condition.

    If you have faith in all the trinities and apostles in the world, and still have no faith in yourself, there is no salvation for you.

    In India, it is religion that forms the very core of the national heart. It is the backbone - the bed-rock - the foundation upon which the national edifice has been built.

    In the unification of two minds, orientation of sexuality is irrelevant.

    It is one thing to believe and another to know.

    It is only our dedication towards our passion that distinguishes a champion from the crowd.

    It is only when all the people of all countries grow together holding hands in harmony and not pointing guns at each other in hatred, that we can really advance in the path of progress as one species.

    It's about religious acceptance, it's no longer about religious tolerance.

    Love has no gender - compassion has no religion - character has no race.

    Make films that purify the soul with the flow of rational, vigorous and compassionate thinking.

    Marriage is not a competition. Marriage is completion of two souls.

    Martial arts is not about fighting, it is about being fit and healthy, both physiologically and psychologically.

    Mind not the mocking and keep on walking.

    Monogamy is not a choice, it is a responsibility of a genuine human.

    Neuro-linguistic programming is to Neuroscience what Astrology is to Astronomy.

    Once you reach the brink of your will power, you have two options either give up, or keep going. That decision decides whether you'll reach your goal.

    One way or another we are all biased, but still we have the modern cortical capacity to choose whether or not to let the harmful biases dictate our behavior.

    Only the shallow judge others, those with character know to judge themselves before they judge others.

    Religious unity and religious tolerance are not the same thing. Unity doesn’t come merely through tolerance. You don’t need to tolerate people from other religions. It is time you start loving them. Toleration may make you a decent person, but it is love that makes you a true human being.

    Society, society and society, this should be on your mind 24/7.

    Some gender norms are healthy, some are unhealthy - you must wake up from the patriarchal sleep to recognize which is which.

    The divinity you seek is born with you.

    The hormonal interplay inside a woman’s head creates her reality. Her hormones tell her day to day what’s important. They mold her desires and values.
