Every moment and every event of every man's life on earth plants something in his soul.

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

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

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

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

Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future.

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.

Nothing makes one feel so strong as a call for help.

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

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