One of the most difficult things everyone has to learn is that for your entire life you must keep fighting and adjusting if you hope to survive. No matter who you are or what your position is you must keep fighting for whatever it is you desire to achieve.
350
351
Use each interaction to be the best, most powerful version of yourself.
352
The battle of life is, in most cases, fought uphill; and to win it without a struggle were perhaps to win it without honor. If there were no difficulties there would be no success; if there were nothing to struggle for, there would be nothing to be achieved.
353
What gives me the most hope every day is God’s grace; knowing that his grace is going to give me the strength for whatever I face, knowing that nothing is a surprise to God.

355
356
Orators are most vehement when their cause is weak.
357
358
With self-discipline most anything is possible.
359

361
362
The most simple things can bring the most happiness.
363
364
365
I dated a lot, but I never really had anyone who was worthy of an anniversary. And most girlfriends never made it to a year, anyway.
366
Most floods are caused by man, not weather; deforestation, levee construction, erosion, and overgrazing all result in the loss of ecosystem services.
367
I think it’s important for us as a society to remember that the youth within juvenile justice systems are, most of the time, youths who simply haven‘t had the right mentors and supporters around them – because of circumstances beyond their control.

Like the measles, love is most dangerous when it comes late in life.
376
377
All over the world, independent and strong civil society – NGOs, faith leaders, and other community advocates – help governments solve problems and better serve their people better by shining a light on the issues that matter most – like education standards, access to healthcare, the rule of law, and economic opportunity.
378
It is what we prevent, rather than what we do that counts most in Government.
379

380
Of all the things I’ve done, the most vital is coordinating those who work with me and aiming their efforts at a certain goal.
381
The worst government is often the most moral. One composed of cynics is often very tolerant and humane. But when fanatics are on top there is no limit to oppression.
382
Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.
383
The genius of the United States is not best or most in its executives or legislatures, nor in its ambassadors or authors or colleges, or churches, or parlors, nor even in its newspapers or inventors, but always most in the common people.
384
I know who I am. I am not perfect. I’m not the most beautiful woman in the world. But I’m one of them.
385
386

Real Madrid is the most important thing that happened to me, both as a footballer and as a person.
388
Temperance is essential, if the services of men and women are to be employed to the best and most useful effect according, to the physical capacity and ability of each. Nothing less will assure a total effort.

395
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this.
396
The triple is the most exciting play in baseball. Home runs win a lot of games, but I never understood why fans are so obsessed with them.
397
398

401
Most of us end up with no more than five or six people who remember us. Teachers have thousands of people who remember them for the rest of their lives.
402
403
404
I love people who make me laugh. I honestly think it’s the thing I like most, to laugh. It cures a multitude of ills. It’s probably the most important thing in a person.
405
The mother-child relationship is paradoxical and, in a sense, tragic. It requires the most intense love on the mother’s side, yet this very love must help the child grow away from the mother, and to become fully independent.
406
407
408
The capacity for hope is the most significant fact of life. It provides human beings with a sense of destination and the energy to get started.

410
411

413
414
415
Dictatorship naturally arises out of democracy, and the most aggravated form of tyranny and slavery out of the most extreme liberty.

Our most valuable resources – creativity, communication, invention, and reinvention – are, in fact, unlimited.
417
418
Coral reefs represent some of the world’s most spectacular beauty spots, but they are also the foundation of marine life: without them many of the sea’s most exquisite species will not survive.
419
We all have a dark side. Most of us go through life avoiding direct confrontation with that aspect of ourselves, which I call the shadow self. There’s a reason why. It carries a great deal of energy.
420
The highest and most beautiful things in life are not to be heard about, nor read about, nor seen but, if one will, are to be lived.
421
422
Body language and tone of voice – not words – are our most powerful assessment tools.

The most important thing is to never give up, never give in to circumstances, believe yourself, and to soldier on, no matter what’s in your way.
439
440
One of the most time-consuming things is to have an enemy.
441
Most of life is showing up. You do the best you can, which varies from day to day.
442
Peace comes when you talk to the guy you most hate. And that’s where the courage of a leader comes, because when you sit down with your enemy, you as a leader must already have very considerable confidence from your own constituency.
443
If you truly believe in the value of life, you care about all of the weakest and most vulnerable members of society.
444
445

446
447

448
Man is the most intelligent of the animals – and the most silly.
449
Silence is the most perfect expression of scorn.

451
452

453
To be doing good deeds is man’s most glorious task.
454
The difference between false memories and true ones is the same as for jewels: it is always the false ones that look the most real, the most brilliant.
455
456
Wealth, in even the most improbable cases, manages to convey the aspect of intelligence.
457
The Great Depression, like most other periods of severe unemployment, was produced by government mismanagement rather than by any inherent instability of the private economy.
458
459
When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen.
460
461
A child-like man is not a man whose development has been arrested; on the contrary, he is a man who has given himself a chance of continuing to develop long after most adults have muffled themselves in the cocoon of middle-aged habit and convention.
462
463
464
Most of us start out with a positive attitude and a plan to do our best.
465
466
Most of us are imprisoned by something. We’re living in darkness until something flips on the switch.
467
What I’ve enjoyed most, though, is meeting people who have a real interest in food and sharing ideas with them. Good food is a global thing and I find that there is always something new and amazing to learn – I love it!
468
469
The strongest and most effective force in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination.
470
Those that are most slow in making a promise are the most faithful in the performance of it.
471

477
478
479
480

481
482
My life has been full of terrible misfortunes most of which never happened.
483
484
485
As any doctor can tell you, the most crucial step toward healing is having the right diagnosis. If the disease is precisely identified, a good resolution is far more likely. Conversely, a bad diagnosis usually means a bad outcome, no matter how skilled the physician.
486
487
488
489
Nixon was the most dishonest individual I have ever met in my life. He lied to his wife, his family, his friends, his colleagues in the Congress, lifetime members of his own political party, the American people and the world.
490
Laughter is America’s most important export.
491
The most important thing about global warming is this. Whether humans are responsible for the bulk of climate change is going to be left to the scientists, but it’s all of our responsibility to leave this planet in better shape for the future generations than we found it.
492
493
I don’t have a formula to pass on. I always did it my own way. Even today, I hold my independence close. It’s what’s most precious to me. Passion. Risk. Tenacity. Consistency. This is my professional history.
494
Love is something far more than desire for sexual intercourse; it is the principal means of escape from the loneliness which afflicts most men and women throughout the greater part of their lives.
495
Most mothers are instinctive philosophers.
496
497
For the most part, Islam is about peace. It’s dealing with submission to the most high. Mohammed is a prophet, a messenger. But at the same time, we’ll fight in the name of Allah. We’re not going to let you disrespect our prophet.
498
What I love most about this crazy life is the adventure of it.
499
The most thought-provoking thing in our thought-provoking time is that we are still not thinking.
