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

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

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

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

Wonder rather than doubt is the root of all knowledge.

I have looked into your eyes with my eyes. I have put my heart near your heart.

You don't look out there for God, something in the sky, you look in you.

You are always free to change your mind and choose a different future, or a different past.

If you accept the expectations of others, especially negative ones, then you never will change the outcome.
