I have observed that as long as one lives and bestirs himself, he can always find food and raiment, though it may not be of the choicest description.

Live each day as if your life had just begun.

Correction does much, but encouragement does more.

We do not have to visit a madhouse to find disordered minds; our planet is the mental institution of the universe.

Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.

The moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. Whatever you think you can do, or believe you can do, begin it. Action has magic, power and grace.

Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.

At the moment of commitment the entire universe conspires to assist you.

Courage is the commitment to begin without any guarantee of success.

If I accept you as you are, I will make you worse; however, if I treat you as though you are what you are capable of becoming, I help you become that.

There is nothing worse than aggressive stupidity.

We find and understand the beauty of life through education.

We were all created differently, each with his/her calling and purpose

I love you as the rain loves the earth.

In this city, every deserted street corner conceals a crowd. It appears in a minute when something disrupts the way in which the world is supposed to work. It can disappear almost as instantaneously.

Notes don't make music until you learn to insert silence between them.

Childhood’s work is learning, and it is in his play...that the child works at his job.

It's not the failure that holds us back but the reluctance to begin over again that causes us to stagnate.

Beware when you take on the Church of God. Others have tried and have bitten the dust.

Nonbelievers may hear all the notes of science, but without a theistic context and perspective they will not hear the song.

Good storytelling is humanity's great connector, and it just might keep the world from eating itself.
