“I’ve learned from these events that self-esteem plays as much a part in the destiny of nations as it does in the lives of individuals; that self-hatred leads to the need either to dominate or to be dominated; that citizens who refuse to obey anything but their own conscience can transform their countries; in short, that self-esteem is the basis of any real democracy.”

Quote by -Gloria Steinem
My first instrument was my voice. I was always singing and writing melodies when I was a little kid. I just sort of taught myself whatever was around. If there were instruments around, I'd play them. I always liked the idea of not being shown but coming up with my own energetic connection to the instrument.
Quote by -Xavier Rudd
The film studios learned to our dismay but to their pleasure that if they spent $200 million making a film they could make half a billion on it. So they were not interested anymore in quality films... They can't afford to be that risky at those prices. Consequently you're getting a lot of remakes, sequels, dopey comedies full of toilet jokes...
Quote by -Woody Allen
As young West Point cadets, our motto was 'duty, honor, country.' But it was in the field, from the rice paddies of Southeast Asia to the sands of the Middle East, that I learned that motto's fullest meaning. There I saw gallant young Americans of every race, creed and background fight, and sometimes die, for 'duty, honor, and their country.'
Quote by -Norman Schwarzkopf
I learned a few things on my own since, and modified some of the things he taught me, but everything, unequivocally, that I learned about comedy writing I learned from Danny Simon.
Quote by -Woody Allen
My gift was in comedy. I found out I could make jokes. I could tell jokes. I could write them. So over the years, that's what I've done.

Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“We need to unlearn our respect for education, since it has undermined our respect for ourselves. It's worth taking time to demistify it. [...] All the things an adolescent can be [...] are reduced to a three digit number. [...] We too can decide how to value our education instead of letting them value us.”

Quote by -Gloria Steinem
To be happy you must have taken the measure of your powers, tasted the fruits of your passion, and learned your place in the world.
Quote by -George Santayana
“There is no such thing as a perfect leader. We have to learn to lead ourselves.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“Will we get to the point that learning sign language is a part of literacy? That knowing both an audible and a physical language is routine?”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“A habitual indulgence in the inarticulate is a sure sign of the philosopher who has not learned to think, the poet who has not learned to write, the painter who has not learned to paint, and the impression that has not learned to express itself--all of which are compatible with an immensity of genius in the inexpressible soul.”
Quote by -George Santayana
“Women have to learn how to talk as much as we listen. Men have to learn how to listen as much as they talk.”
Quote by -Gloria Steinem
“Men can be just as loving and nurturing as women-- it's a libel on men to say they can't-- but we all learn by example. Boys just need nurturing men in their lives so they know it's okay for them to be nurturing.”

Quote by -Gloria Steinem
We can learn to see each other and see ourselves in each other and recognize that human beings are more alike than we are unalike.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
Quote by -Maya Angelou
He who is not everyday conquering some fear has not learned the secret of life.

Quote by -Maya Angelou
remember this: When you cross my doorstep, you have already been raised. With what you have learned...you know the difference between right and wrong. Do right. Don't anybody raise you from the way you have been raised. Know you will have to make adaptations, in love, in relationships, in friends, in society, in work, but don't let anybody change your mind.
