A tremendously inspirational quote by one of the most loved Popes: John XXIII
Don't focus on what you cannot do, focus on what's in your power.
Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.
A spectacularly deep quote by Haruki Murakami:
If you only read the books that everyone else is reading, you can only think what everyone else is thinking
So look beyond, expand your horizon, expose yoruself to diverse sources of information, explore...that's the only way you can be uniquely you, and really, truly, authentic. Don't just go with the flow.

A wise, direct and powerful quote about violence by Martin Luther King Jr.
Full quote: “Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. Violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. Violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. Violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty. Violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. It may increase hate. It is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. This is the ultimate weakness of violence: It multiplies evil and violence in the universe. It doesn’t solve any problems.”
