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

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

Nurture your minds with great thoughts. To believe in the heroic makes heroes.

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

A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil.

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

As knowledge increases, wonder deepens.

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

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

Man never made any material as resilient as the human spirit.
