Success is loving life and daring to live it.

If a man will begin with certainties, he shall end in doubts; but if he will be content to begin with doubts he shall end in certainties.

Any man can make mistakes, but only an idiot persists in his error.

It does not take a majority of prevail... but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men.

You must never be fearful about what you are doing when it is right.

God, give us the grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, courage to change the things which should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.

Great is he, who conquers the frightful. Sublime is he, who, while succumbing to it, fears it not.

You will never be able to escape from your heart. So it is better to listen to what it has to say.

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

The longer I live, the more beautiful life becomes.

Rest not! Life is sweeping by; go and dare before you die. Something mighty and sublime, leave behind to conquer time.

He that hunts others, must run himself.

Be at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let every new year find you a better man.

The things which . . . are esteemed as the greatest good of all . . . can be reduced to these three headings: to wit, Riches, Fame, and Pleasure. With these three the mind is so engrossed that it cannot scarcely think of any other good.

Whoever wants music instead of noise, joy instead of pleasure, soul instead of gold, creative work instead of business, passion instead of foolery, finds no home in this trivial world of ours.

Hold every moment sacred. Give each clarity and meaning, each the weight of thine awareness, each its true and due fulfillment.

I drink to make other people more interesting.

Dying is nothing. What is terrible is not to live.

Love has no other desire but to fulfill itself.

Love is the only way to rescue humanity from all ills.

Think enthusiastically about everything; but especially about your job. If you do, you'll put a torch of glory in your life. If you love your job with enthusiasm, you'll shake it to pieces. You'll love it into greatness, you'll upgrade it, you'll fill it with prestige and power.

Only people who are capable of loving strongly can also suffer great sorrow, but this same necessity of loving serves to counteract their grief and heals them.

What barrier is there that love cannot break?

I am a true laborer: I earn that I eat, get that I wear, owe no man hate, envy no man’s happiness, glad of other men’s good, content with my harm.

We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist.

No human creature can give orders to love.

As the traveler who has once been from home is wiser than he who has never left his own doorstep, so a knowledge of one other culture should sharpen our ability to scrutinize more steadily, to appreciate more lovingly, our own.

Let no man pull you so low as to hate him.

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.

It is far better to be exhausted from success than to be rested from failure.

Success is simple. Do what's right, the right way, at the right time.

We are prone to judge success by the index of our salaries or the size of our automobiles rather than by the quality of our service and relationship to mankind.

The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. If you don't, life controls you.
