Inspirational Quotes
"Do you love your Creator? Love your fellow-beings first." Prophet Muhammad
"Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' Vanity asks the question, 'Is it popular?' But, conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because one's conscience tells one that it is right." Martin Luther King Jr.
"A parent can give a child no greater gift than beautiful manners." Prophet Muhammad
"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind" Mahatma Gandhi
