Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others.

Count your blessings. You are one of a kind. There’s no one in the world like you. You are amazing.

Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.

May your troubles be less and your blessings be more.

The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.

To be able to practice five things everywhere under the heaven constitutes perfect virtue. . . gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness and kindness.

We ought not to let either our joy at their faults or our grief at their success be idle, but in either case we ought to reflect, how we may become better than them by avoiding their errors, and by imitating their virtues not come short of them.

Protecting your virtue you have to learn to say no.

There is virtue in work and there is virtue in rest. Use both and overlook neither.

Virtue is a state of war, and to live in it we have always to combat with ourselves.
