1950s (Getty Images)

Decades of the 20th Century. Photographs from the Getty collection. Fascinating photographs put images of the power of an event or the zaniness of new trends right before the viewers' eyes. The force of war and political conflict is just as important a theme as world-shaking innovations in science and technology. These are accompanied by portraits of great personalities in art, politics, and society.

Who is it really for?

People are often unreasonable,
illogical, and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse
you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful,
you will win some false friends
and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank,
people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building,
someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness,
they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today people
will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the whole world the best
you have, and it never be enough;
Give the world the best you have anyway.

You see, in the final analysis,
it is between you and God;

It was never between you
and them anyway.

Mother Teresa orphanage in Calcutta India

Many persons have the wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.


Never bend your head. Hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.


No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars or sailed an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.


One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.


~Helen Keller
