“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.”
One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life.
Our strength is often composed of the weakness that we’re damned if we are going to show.
Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.
-Langston Hughes
Every blade of grass has an angel that bends over it and whispers, “Grow! Grow!”
“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
You do not need to be loved, not at the cost of yourself. The
single relationship that is truly central and crucial in a life is
the relationship to the self. Of all the people you will know in a
lifetime, you are the only one you will never lose.
~Jo Coudert
“Opportunity often comes disguised in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.”—Napoleon Hill
When life seems to keep shutting the door on you, keep hope alive.
Sometimes there is a bridge just waiting to be crossed, taking you to the place that you your heart truly belongs.
The right time to show your good character is when you are pestered by somebody weaker than you.
-Buddha
“What is it you love to do? Don’t bother yourself with what anyone else says… that’s why you’re here…
When you believe you’ve found your purpose, do not allow yourself to be dissuaded by others’ opinions – don’t allow them to tell you in which direction to build.”
“When you have the right purpose, you’ll easily develop the right vision-
When you have the right vision, you’ll quickly recognize the right goal”
