 "In a gentle way, you can shake the world"- Mahatma Gandhi This is a quote from Mahatma Gandhi, one of the main people behind the Indian Independence Movement. He supported nonviolence and helped India gain freedom from the British. In this quote, Gandhi says to not enforce violence or means of fighting people physically in order to combat your problems, but instead to use peace and tactically solve them. He is saying that violence is not the only way to change the world, but you can use peace and smartness to change it too.

  “ Dream  is not that which you see while sleeping it is something that does not let you sleep.” - Abdul Kalam, former ISRO scientist and former Indian president. This was a quote from Abdul Kalam, the 11th president of India and a former rocket scientist. He was born in a lower middle class family in the state of Tamil Nadu, and he made his way up though lots of hard work and dedication. He worked very hard for his dream to become a reality and in the end, he achieved more than just his dream, which was to make India proud. His message for people is to follow our dreams and work very hard for it without letting anything disturb us or get in our way. That is what he is trying to convey to us people through this quote.

  Hello, dear MELs. This is the second installment in our series analyzing the quotes of Steve Jobs, and how you can use these to better live your life. The quote that we'll analyze today is "Stay hungry, stay foolish." No, I don't think that was big enough. How about this: "STAY HUNGRY, STAY FOOLISH"      There, much better. Steve jobs said this during a 2005 speech given at Stanford. He found "Stay hungry, Stay foolish" on the final issue of a magazine named The Whole Earth Catalog , which Jobs followed. On its last issue, as a piece of advice to its readers, it said, "Stay hungry, Stay foolish".  But what is this supposed to mean? Isn't being hungry a bad thing? Nobody wants to be foolish, right? Well, let's look at it from Jobs's perspective. Steve  Jobs was the first in his family to attend college, but dropped out after he found that college didn't do much for him. He then spent a period of his life actually being hu...

Joke:      There once was a man who really didn't like punch. Fruit punch? No, thank you. Punch to the face? Not on your life. Punch card at the local ice-cream eatery? No, are you mad?      So, he didn't like punch, of any kind. Well, one day, the man was at this hip-and-cool party late at night. And what was the drink of choice? You guessed it, punch. Well the man didn't want none of that, so he stormed out. His friends tried to reason with him, but he was adamant. "You either have the punch, or you have me", he said.       It was some really good punch, so the friends said they would catch up later. The man started to walk back to his punch-free household. Suddenly, he saw a woman walking her dog and said hi. The woman said hi back, and the man continued to his house. Then he got a good night's sleep and had oatmeal for breakfast the next morning. Moral- Oatmeal is a good breakfast, you should try it sometime

We've already looked at  one of Albert Einstein's quotes , now let's try and understand another. " Beim Menschen ist es wie beim Velo. Nur wenn er faehrt, kann er bequem die Balance halten. " Einstein wrote this German phrase in a letter to his son, Eduard Einstein. Now, this may not be perfectly clear to the average English-speaking Melnewzers reader, so here is an excellent translation, courtesy of Google Translation Services: "It's like a bicycle in the middle of nowhere. Only when he is going where he can keep his balance he is the straightest"  Wonderful, no? Now, here's a better, hand-made translation: "It is the same with people as it is with riding a bike. Only when moving can one comfortably maintain one’s balance." This quote tells us that you have to keep moving in order to stay afloat. Speaking from personal experience, as part of a (non)biker gang, bikes travel best when they travel fast. When you slow down and stop, you lo...

                             Let's start of with Albert Einstein's first quote which is " Every Body is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree. It  will be living it's whole life thinking it's stupid", this is a powerful statement, before I tell you the meaning try to understand it first. Okay so the meaning of this is, if someone else judges the fish then there's no problem, then the person who judged is stupid. Meaning if the world judges you there's no problem and the world is stupid, but if the fish judges it's own ability's and thinks that it can't climb the tress then it's stupid. Everybody has an ability in life. If Bill Gates was told to become a doctor in life, then he wouldn't be the person who he is right now. He found his passion when he was young and progressed along. Or, if Albert Einstein was told to play cricket, then what would he do, people would have laugh. Albert...
