Believe nothing, no matter where you read it or who has said it, not even if I have said it. Unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense.

I've learned it's important not to limit yourself. You can do whatever you really love to do, no matter what it is.

Be not the slave of your own past - plunge into the sublime seas, dive deep, and swim far, so you shall come back with new self-respect, with new power, and with an advanced experience that shall explain and overlook the old.

When educating the minds of our youth, we must not forget to educate their hearts.

Your future begins with your next thought.

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being excited of what could go right.

I've had a lot of worries in my life,
most of which never happened.

You can never be great at anything unless you love it.

Inner peace begins the moment you choose not to allow another person or event to control your emotions.

We are each gifted in an important way.
It is our privilege and our adventure to discover our own special light.

Kind words can be short, and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.

Intelligence without ambition is a bird without wings.

Most of the trouble in the world is caused by people wanting to be important.

Be helpful.
When you see a person without a smile
give him yours.

When another person makes you suffer, it is because he suffers deeply within himself, and his suffering is spilling over.
He does not need punishment;
he needs help.

Opinions have caused more ills than the plague or earthquakes on this little globe of ours.

It’s only after you’ve stepped outside your comfort zone that you begin to change, grow, and transform.
