Hope is some extraordinary spiritual grace that God gives us to control our fears, not to oust them.

Every charitable act is a stepping stone toward heaven.

I pray God may preserve your health and life many years.

Happiness resides not in possessions, and not in gold, happiness dwells in the soul.

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

What great thing would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.

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

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

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.
