“The harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; it is dearness only that gives everything its value. I love the man that can smile in trouble, that can gather strength from distress and grow brave by reflection.”

—Thomas Paine (1737-1809), author, revolutionary, pamphleteer

"People use their intuition with things they care
about. Many women are most intuitive with their
relationships and children, whereas men often show
a great degree of ‘gut instinct' in work and business."
— Sonia Choquette: Spiritual teacher and author
