What stronger breastplate than a heart untainted!

If things seem under control, you are just not going fast enough.

Confidence…thrives on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection and on unselfish performance. Without them it cannot live.

What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

Cherish that which is within you, and shut off that which is without; for much knowledge is a curse.

I pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.

You may shoot me with your words, you may cut me with your eyes, you may kill me with your hatefulness, but still, like air, I'll rise.

Unless above himself he can erect himself, how poor a thing is man!

It never ceases to amaze me: We all love ourselves more than other people, but care more about their opinion than our own.
