Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person.
Albert Einstein

To the Master's honor all must turn, each in its track, without a sound, forever tracing Newton's ground.
Albert Einstein

Where ignorance is our master, there is no possibility of real peace.
Dalai Lama

I have no fear that the result of our experiment will be that men may be trusted to govern themselves without a master.
Thomas Jefferson

The whole commerce between master and slave is a perpetual exercise of the most boisterous passions, the most unremitting despotism on the one part, and degrading submissions on the other. Our children see this, and learn to imitate it.
Thomas Jefferson

One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
Tony Robbins

As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy.
Abraham Lincoln

Some single mind must be master, else there will be no agreement in anything.
Abraham Lincoln

The lust for comfort, that stealthy thing that enters the house a guest, and then becomes a host, and then a master.
Kahlil Gibran

The eye of the master will do more work than both his hands.
Benjamin Franklin

A friend should be a master at guessing and keeping still: you must not want to see everything.
Friedrich Nietzsche

The aphorism in which I am the first master among Germans, are the forms of "eternity"; my ambition is to say in ten sentences what everyone else says in a book - what everyone else does not say in a book.
Friedrich Nietzsche

It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master.
Ayn Rand

History is a relentless master. It has no present, only the past rushing into the future. To try to hold fast is to be swept aside.
John F. Kennedy

Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.
George Washington

Self-suggestion makes you master of yourself.
W. Clement Stone

I have only one counsel for you - be master.
Napoleon Bonaparte

No man is so foolish but he may sometimes give another good counsel, and no man so wise that he may not easily err if he takes no other counsel than his own. He that is taught only by himself has a fool for a master.
Hunter S. Thompson

Two such as you with such a master speed, cannot be parted nor be swept away, from one another once you are agreed, that life is only life forevermore, together wing to wing and oar to oar.
Robert Frost

We are all apprentices in a craft where no one ever becomes a master.
Ernest Hemingway
