Much can and must be done by governments, but they cannot of themselves change lives. – Jonathan Sacks
Jews know this in their bones. Our community could not exist for a day without its volunteers. They are the lifeblood of our organizations, whether they involve welfare, youth, education, care of the sick and elderly, or even protection against violence and abuse. – Jonathan Sacks
True freedom requires the rule of law and justice, and a judicial system in which the rights of some are not secured by the denial of rights to others. – Jonathan Sacks
Part of the beauty of Judaism, and surely this is so for other faiths also, is that it gently restores control over time. Three times a day we stop what we are doing and turn to God in prayer. We recover perspective. We inhale a deep breath of eternity. – Jonathan Sacks

Its very essential values that we all have to protect. But in Chinese society, people are giving up on protecting these values. – Ai Weiwei
With fame, you cant trust everybody. You cant depend on them being there for you as a person. They will only be there because of what youve got you as a person. They will only be there because of what youve got and what you can bring to their life. Its not a relationship-its a leech. – Chris Brown
