When the head and the heart are in disagreement, the gut is the place where the matter is settled and where action is then generated.

We're more likely to buy more new books than to read more of the old ones we already have.

The way to work with time is to mimic how time works. Keep going. Don't stop!

Where the battle has been the bitterest,
there the success remains the sweetest!

The reason we can't lift ourselves up by our own hands is simple. We're meant to lift others up. When we lift enough people up, eventually they lift us up to heights we could not have imagined when we first began. #Bangladesh @Yunus_Centre

We tend to use our experience to explain the word of God, when we have to use God's word to explain our experience.

I have known both failure and success. I know the differences and the similarities. Above all, however, I know that failure, like the foundation block that gets buried underground, is the bedrock upon which true success is constructed.

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

I have never felt a greater sense of accomplishment than the one which comes from achieving a childhood dream. Whatever yours may be, if it feels big and frightens you, if it keeps captivating you and gives you sleepless nights, may I gently whisper into your ears, "go get it!"

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

Many have wandered far away from their mission by jumping on what looked like an opportunity. They took a bait. If it's not true, noble, right, pure, honest, just, honourable and...and praiseworthy - no matter how grand its promise - it is a bait, do not take it.

I am a bilingual scientist. I speak both natural and social sciences

The simple act of forwarding a job advert to a job-seeking colleague is a life-changing gesture. Simple in initiation, powerful in implication.

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

But if your heart is pure
And you can keep the faith
You shall certainly endure
And ultimately triumph

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

If you keep a straight path
You'll soon run into a wall
And if you stick to the truth
You may sometimes fall

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

This may cause you pain
Worse still, you'll face shame
And there'll be times of disdain
That will leave you totally lame

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

What legacy are we bequeathing to the next generation if they develop the sheer boldness to shoot down their presidents, when some of us find it extremely hard to slaughter a fowl for dinner? Isn't there a gap in values and virtue that needs urgent fixing?

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

...On the contrary: “If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.” Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord...

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds.

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

Work is our original calling. We rest to work. We don't work in order to rest. Think about that...

[Dr H. Arthur @doctor_arthur]

I have worked in some of the most deprived parts of the world and among some of the planet's most vulnerable. One thing keeps me going: that these people are able to rebuild their lives, put a roof over their houses, and send their children to school. That's hope.
