All of us who are concerned for peace and triumph of reason and justice must be keenly aware how small an influence reason and honest good will exert upon events in the political field.

It is better to have your head in the clouds, and know where you are... than to breathe the clearer atmosphere below them, and think that you are in paradise.

Politicians are people who, when they see the light at the end of a tunnel, order more tunnel.

You're not to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it.

Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Like integrity, love of life was not a subject to be studied, it was a contagion to be caught. And you had to catch it from someone who had it.

Patriotism is unquestionably a high moral virtue, and to call a person patriot - better still, a true patriot - is the greatest of compliments.

Nothing sidelining it; not even the most obfuscated ingredient of royalty attempting to devour its altruistically brilliant and impregnably sparkling integrity.

Don't wait for something big to occur. Start where you are, with what you have, and that will always lead you into something greater.

Above all, I would like to be remembered as a man who was selfless, who strove and worried so that others could share the glory, and who built up a family of people who could hold their heads up high and say 'We're Liverpool'.

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.

Avoid negative people, for they are the greatest destroyers of self confidence and self-esteem. Surround yourself with people who bring out the best in you!

A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable but more useful than a life spent in doing nothing.
