Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Luck)

The best luck of all is the luck you make for yourself.
-- DOUGLAS MACARTHUR :

The luck we make for others consist of lifting them up from dire straits, showing them kindness in times of hostilities, sharing food when they are hungry, comforting them when they are in deep sorrow and tribulation, helping them open the gates of economic opportunities and spiritual upliftment. It's a service to humanity. The luck we make for ourselves is a gift for our sacred self. It's not necessarily material things. It's peace of mind and spiritual bliss.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Success)

The best revenge in the world is success.
-- SUGE KNIGHT :

When we reap success, our envious and jealous detractors who have been throwing everything but the kitchen sink at us, will end up cursing themselves in shame and frustration because they couldn't put a good or successful person down.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Hate)

To make oneself hated is more difficult than to make oneself loved.
-- PABLO PICASSO :

Our heart has been pre-programmed to always prioritize humility, compassion, tolerance and understanding when dealing with problematic characters. When they turn into snakes notwithstanding our kindness, rejecting them becomes necessary; hating them should be an extreme option.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Courage)

You don't develop courage by being happy in your relationships everyday. You develop it by surviving difficult times and challenging adversity.
-- EPICURUS :

Too much happiness in life makes us complacent and hubiristic. We all need a real life cataclysmic experience and self-sustaining imprimatur to kill all the rats inside our heart and level up our standard.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Jealousy)

It is not love that is blind, but jealousy.
-- LAWRENCE DURRELL :

Jealousy's blindness is a man-made catastrophe. Triggered by extreme possessiveness and terrible insecurity, jealousy paralyzes our logical thought and marshals our irrational forces to the pothole of destruction.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Gossip)

Gossip is the devil's radio.
-- GEORGE HARRISON :

The only radio with no FM and AM stations. No music but ear-splitting sounds from locomotive tongues and frothing mouths infected with septicemic, bubonic and pneumonic diseases.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Failures)

Do not be embarrassed by your failures, learn from them and start again.
-- RICHARD BRANSON :

Achievement is not a trophy but only an event in life. Total victory is gained only after we pick ourselves up from failures and sustain the tough race all the way to the finish line and awarding ceremony.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Problem)

Intellectuals solve problems, geniuses prevent them.
-- ALBERT EINSTEIN :

Because we ordinary thinkers can neither solve nor prevent problems, we have to face them squarely and fatalistically, live with them, and wish we can avoid them.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Insult)

Oppression is more easily endured than insult.
-- JUNIUS :

We can always wake up from a deep slumber of apathy and passivity if oppression has reached its tipping point. We can shrug off insult's initial volley of fusillade, but in the long run our ego is bruised and we end up emotionally wrecked.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Friend)

Tell your friend a lie. If he keeps it, then tell him the truth.
-- PORTUGUESE PROVERB :

Just tell our friend the truth straight and right away. No beating around the bush. No hesitation. We shouldn't worry anymore whether he will keep it. Truth will always be safe and sacred whether heard only by one person or leaked in the entire universe. 
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Love, Prayer, Forgiveness)

Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness.
-- H. JACKSON BROWN, JR. :

Prayer eradicates the pain in the heart caused by so much hatred and our inability to forgive. Love restores all the dead spots in our heart's cell sites after we have forgiven those who have sinned against us.
-- ALEX P. VIDAL

Alex P. Vidal Quotes (Women)

A woman's best protection is a little money of her own.
-- CLARE BOOTHE LUCE :

A financially-independent woman can't be manipulated and exploited. She isn't afraid to untie the Gordian Knot and cross the Rubicon River on her own. She absconds from man's temerity to lord over her by force and intimidation. With her pockets secured, safe and sound during rainy season, a woman can stymie any act of bestiality anytime with her pride, self respect and reputation intact.
