Never give up hope. Know that you are loved.

You alone are the judge of your worth and your goal is to discover infinite worth in yourself, no matter what anyone else thinks.

Everything that happens to us is a reflection of who we are.

No matter what the situation, remind yourself "I have a choice."

Be happy for no reason, like a child. If you are happy for a reason, you’re in trouble, because that reason can be taken from you.

The love you feel in life is a reflection of the love you feel in yourself.

Treat every moment as a gift, that is why it is called the present.

Every time you are tempted to react in the same old way, ask if you want to be a prisoner of the past or a pioneer of the future.

Take responsibility for your last bad decision, and then let it go. Don't blame others or make excuses for yourself.

Don't chase people. Be yourself, do your own thing and work hard. The right people - the ones who really belong in your life - will come to your. And stay.

The fearful seek to serve themselves by mastering the world, while the fearless seek to serve the world by mastering themselves.

It is unconscionable that 10,000 boys have died in Vietnam. If 10,000 American women had mind enough they could end the war, if they were committed to the task, even if it meant going to jail.

A monkey could drive this train.

In the end I'm still a writer. I'm still a journalist, and my first responsibility is to my readers. That's where I have to draw the line.
