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

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

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

Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

Great hopes make great men.

Wonder rather than doubt is the root of all knowledge.

Whoever is happy will make others happy too.

Nurture your minds with great thoughts. To believe in the heroic makes heroes.

Put your heart, mind, and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the secret of success.
