Learn and Teach.

Said Rumi...
Come, come whoever you are.
Wonderer, worshipper, lover of leaving.
It doesn't matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vow
a thousand times
Come, yet again, come, come

Said Ghandi...
You must be the change, you want to see in the world

Said Aveccina...
Those who Know they do not Know that to Know is to Know what they do not Know.

Said Mandela...
For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

Said Ibn Hazm...
If your pride leads you to boast,
you will be doubly guilty,
because your intelligence will have shown
that it is incapable of controlling your pride

Said Beatrice...
Princes and counties! Surely, a princely testimony,
a goodly count, Count Comfect; a sweet gallant,
surely! O that I were a man for his sake! or that I
had any friend would be a man for my sake! But
manhood is melted into courtesies, valour into
compliment, and men are only turned into tongue, and
trim ones too: he is now as valiant as Hercules
that only tells a lie and swears it. I cannot be a
man with wishing, therefore I will die a woman with grieving.

And said Ali ibn Abu Talib (radiAllahu anhu)...
Oh writer! An Angel watches over all you write. Make your writing meaningful for it will eventually return to you and you will be questioned about what you wrote.

And said Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
People are like stained glass windows: they sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light within.

- Ernst Heinrich Haeckel
"The three hardest tasks in the world are neither physical feats nor intellectual achievements, but moral acts: 1) To return love for hate; 2) To include the excluded; and 3) To say 'I was wrong.'"

Finally:
When the world has brought you to your knees, you find yourself in the perfect position to pray
