When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive–to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.

The more light you allow within you, the brighter the world you live in will be.

You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.

The Son of God became a man to enable men to become sons of God.

Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

Praise God, from whom all blessings flow! Praise Him, all creatures here below! Praise Him above, ye heavenly host! Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!

Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise.

Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.

I would rather be able to appreciate things I can not have than to have things I am not able to appreciate.

There are slavish souls who carry their appreciation of favors done them so far that they strangle themselves with the rope of gratitude.

Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts.

I have yet to find a man, however exalted his station, who did not do better work and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than under a spirit of criticism.

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

Seek not, my soul, the life of the immortals; but enjoy to the full resources that are within thy reach.

Be happy with what you have while working for what you want.

One can only live while one is intoxicated with life; as soon as one is sober it is impossible not to see that it is all a mere fraud and a stupid fraud! That is precisely what it is: there is nothing either amusing or witty about it, it is simply cruel and stupid.

Vigor is found in the man who has not yet grown old, and discretion in the man who is not too young.

One who is serious all day will never have a good time, while one who is frivolous all day will never establish a household.

Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.

There are two ways to conquer and enslave a country. One is by the sword. The other is by debt.

Lost, yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset, two golden hours each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward is offered, for they are gone forever.

No all storms come to disrupt your life, some come to clear your path.

At the end of the day, we can endure more than we think we can.

While there's life, there's hope.

I’m fascinated with myself and love hearing the sound of my own voice. I’d like to hear what I have to say. A lot of people don’t like being alone because they truly don’t like themselves, but I love me.

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved; loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.

To feel the love of people whom we love is a fire that feeds our life.

Love means to love that which is unloveable. Otherwise it is no virtue at all.

You who suffer because you love, love still more. To die of love, is to live by it.

You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.

Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

Accept things to which fate binds you, love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.

Nothing exists from whose nature some effect does not follow.

The oldest, shortest words - “yes” and “no” - are those which require the most thought.

Two percent of the people think; three percent of the people think they think; and ninety-five percent of the people would rather die than think.

There are only two kinds of people, those who accept dogmas and know it, and those who accept dogmas and don't know it.

When we see men of worth, we should think of equaling them; when we see men of a contrary character, we should turn inwards and examine ourselves.

It is usually futile to try to talk facts and analysis to people who are enjoying a sense of moral superiority in their ignorance.

Think lovingly, speak lovingly, act lovingly, and every need shall be supplied.
