#Mystery Quotes

“I am an addictive personality.”
“Do not anticipate trouble, or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight.”

“Nothing in science has any value if it is not communicated.”
“Neither genius, fame, nor love show the greatness of the soul. Only kindness can do that.”
“I have declared again and again that if I say Aryans , I mean neither blood nor bones, nor hair nor skull; I mean simply those who speak an Aryan language... in that sense, and in that sense only, do I say that even the blackest Hindus represent an earlier stage of Aryan speech and thought than the fairest Scandinavians... To me an ethnologist who speaks of Aryan race, Aryan blood, Aryan eyes and hair, is as great a sinner as a linguist who speaks of a dolichocephalic dictionary or a brachycephalic grammar.”
“Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval.”
“The moments of happiness we enjoy take us by surprise. It is not that we seize them, but that they seize us.”
