Man never made any material as resilient as the human spirit.

Thought is the wind, knowledge the sail, and mankind the vessel.

Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go they merely determine where you start.

Be faithful to that which exists within yourself.

Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone.

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it.

As knowledge increases, wonder deepens.
