It is in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.

We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.

Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul.

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

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

Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind.

There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.

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

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

There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.
