Jack Kennedy protected a mature and presidential image _ tough, yet not unduly combative.

But how do you come __ffline_ when so much of our daily lives is moving __nline_? Every month new sites and online services are launched. If you need to check anything _ about a new school for your children, medical treatment, tourist destination or recipe _ you go online. Bill Gates put it so well when he called the Internet the __own square for the global village of tomorrow_.Could you spend a week or even a day without reading your emails, using social media or going online? Someone recently joked with me that having Internet access is more important than having food or water.

To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart.

Remember, it is not enough to be hit or insulted to be harmed, you must believe that you are being harmed. If someone succeeds in provoking you, realize that your mind is complicit in the provocation. Which is why it is essential that we not respond impulsively to impressions; take a moment before reacting, and you will find it easier to maintain control.

Any woman who is sure of her own wits, is a match, at any time, for a man who is not sure of his own temper.

This week, Zuma was quoted as saying, 'When the British came to our country, they said everything we are doing was barbaric, was wrong, inferior in whatever way.' But the serious critique of Zuma is not about who is a barbarian and who is civilised. It is about good governance, and this is a universal value, as relevant to an African village as it is to Westminster. If you are unable to keep your appetites in check, you are inevitably going to live beyond your means. And this means you are going to become vulnerable to patronage and even corruption. That is why Jacob Zuma's 'polygamy' is his achilles heel.

Absolute freedom comes when we make the choice to wake up and master our individual minds, bodies, hearts, and spirits. When we have this true freedom, we no longer act upon our impulsive thoughts or emotions. We gain the capability of controlling them within ourselves, which unlocks our greatest potential to create, transmute, and transcend the Mundane reality.

They have a special confidence in Christ, plus thoughtfulness plus faithfulness plus humility: for there are no things, in all creation, more beautiful, more rare than the so very disciplined and free, joyful and principled daughters of God.

The warrior must never get angry in war.

If you truly want to be respected by people you love, you must prove to them that you can survive without them.

Cheating in relationship is a sign of self-regulation failure. When it happens ones, it is a mistake. When it happens twice, it is unfortunate. But when it happens thrice or more, it is a pattern indicating primitive, uncivilized inhuman behavior.

I cannot trust a man to control others who cannot control himself.

Her philosophy was, if it had a pulse, it could be killed. I didn__ really have a philosophy, but I could see how talking with the school director would be difficult for her. If he said something she didn__ like, chopping him to tiny pieces wouldn__ exactly help me get into the school.

The actuality that the heart does not want to feel, doesn't negate the certitude that it once felt and will still feel.

A life without regret can be attained by full awareness of one's actions in their present moment.

I think a lot of psychopaths are just geniuses who drove so fast that they lost control.
