Too often the strong, silent man is silent only because he does not know what to say, and is reputed strong only because he has remained silent.

Women are reputed never to be disgusted. The sad fact is that they often are, but not with men; following the lead of men, they are most often disgusted with themselves.

Achievement is not always success, while reputed failure often is. It is honest endeavor, persistent effort to do the best possible under any and all circumstances.

If we are to be able to stop on the street and talk to anybody that person would be an institution in themselves. This person can be anybody, a reputed well-established businessman or a five-year-old kid. These lives of mere strangers could be art itself, a documentation of wisdom itself. We have been trying to portrait this in front of people. And we guess it worked like magic. So exactly why not?

The best known of the Cynics was Diogenes, a pupil of Antisthenes, who reputedly lived in a barrel and owned nothing but a cloak, a stick, and a bread bag. (So it wasn't easy to steal his happiness from him!) One day while he was sitting beside his barrel enjoying the sun, he was visited by Alexander the Great. The emperor stood before him and asked if there was anything he could do for him. Was there anything he desired? ?Yes? Diogenes replied. ?Stand to one side. You're blocking the sun.?

Women are reputed never to be disgusted. The sad fact is that they often are but not with men following the lead of men they are most often disgusted with themselves.

A silent man is easily reputed wise. A man who suffers none to see him in the common jostle and undress of life easily gathers round him a mysterious veil of unknown sanctity and men honor him for a saint. The unknown is always wonderful.

Achievement is not always success while reputed failure often is. It is honest endeavor persistent effort to do the best possible under any and all circumstances.
