    From my late father:
    It is better to die and leave (in terms of liquid assets) than to live and want.
    From me:
    It is far better to want children and can't have them than to have children and not want them.
    From the late James Brown from one of his songs in 60s regarding staying in school:
    Without an education, one might as well be dead.

    This is fun! Such lovely quotes! Here's one of mine!

    "Although we hail from different lands, we share one earth, sky and sun. Remember friends, the world is one."

    This line is from The Song of Peace by late Indian singing legend Mohammad Raffi.
