Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago.

Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig.

Only those who have learned the power of sincere and selfless contribution experience life's deepest joy: true fulfillment.

The most authentic thing about us is our capacity to create, to overcome, to endure, to transform, to love and to be greater than our suffering.

The only thing that ultimately matters is to eat an ice-cream cone, play a slide trombone, plant a small tree, good God, now you're free.

God sleeps in the minerals, awakens in plants, walks in animals, and thinks in man.

Whoever is happy will make others happy too.

There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.

Tears of joy are like the summer rain drops pierced by sunbeams.

The glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money.
