Most of us must learn to love people and use things rather than loving things and using people.

I suppose leadership at one time meant muscles; but today it means getting along with people.

Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others have labored hard for.

It all depends on how we look at things,
and not how they are in themselves.

Act as if what you do makes a difference.

It does.

Adopt the pace of nature:
her secret is patience.

If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.

But how could you live and have no story to tell?

Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.

Life becomes easier and more beautiful when we can see the good in other people.

We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us.

Hide not your talents, they for use were made,

What's a sundial in the shade?

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.

If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads.

Stop comparing yourself to other people, just choose to be happy and live your own life.

You cannot do a kindness too soon,
for you never know how soon it will be too late.

Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.

A well-spent day brings happy sleep.

We shall never know all the good
that a simple smile can do.
