Quote by Matteo Ricci

"The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well."

"Love is the most powerful force in the universe, capable of transforming hearts and bridging the deepest divides."

"Wisdom is not the accumulation of years, but the cultivation of understanding."

"Happiness is found not in the pursuit of pleasure, but in the pursuit of purpose."

"The pen is mightier than the sword."

"Literature opens the mind to new worlds"

"The interesting thing about books is that they're made of words."

"Literature captures the essence of what it means to be human."
