Do more than believe: practice. Do more than be fair: be kind. Do more than forgive: forget. Do more than dream: work.

Don't take life to seriously because you'll never get out alive.
~
Josh Shippe
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine,
we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our
presence automatically liberates others.
~ Nelson Mandela
Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny--he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered,
some work has to be completed. You are not here accidentally--you are here meaningfully. There is a purpose behind you.
The whole intends to do something through you.
~
Osho
Life is 10% of what happens to me and 90% of how I react to it.

The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it.
~
General H. Norman Schwarzkopf
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Watch your thoughts, they become your words. Watch your words, they become your actions.
Watch your actions, they become your habits. Watch your habits, they become your character. Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.

In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
~
Albert Camus
The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the
depths. These persons have an appreciation,
a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.
~
Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.
~
Helen Keller
Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day.
