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

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

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

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

Men must live and create. Live to the point of tears.

Joy descends gently upon us like the evening dew, and does not patter down like a hailstorm.

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

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

Don't let the fear of striking out hold you back.

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