No man who is occupied in doing a very difficult thing, and doing it well, ever loses his self-respect.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!

Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.

He who has so little knowledge of human natures as to seek happiness by changing anything but his own disposition will waste his life in fruitless efforts.

You are the only person who thinks in your mind. You are the power and authority in your world.

When we seek to discover the best in others, we somehow bring out the best in ourselves.

He who has peace of mind disturbs neither himself nor another.

If you know the enemy and know yourself you need not fear the results of a hundred battles.
