I expect to pass through this world but once. Any good, therefore, that
I can do or any kindness I can show to any fellow creature, let me do
it now. Let me not defer or neglect it for I shall not pass this way again.

Stephen Grellet


No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been
the reward for what he gave.

Calvin Coolidge


No man ever got very high by pulling other people down. The
intelligent merchant does not knock his competitors. The sensible
worker does not work those who work with him. Don't knock your
friends. Don't knock your enemies. Don't knock yourself.

Lord Alfred Tennyson


Lead the life that will make you kindly and friendly to everyone about
you, and you will be surprised what a happy life you will lead."

Charles M. Schwab


People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are. I do
not believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are
the people who get up and look for the circumstances they want, and
if they cannot find them, make them.

George Bernard Shaw


People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success
because they don't know when to quit. Most people succeed because
they are determined to.

George E. Allen


Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to
succeed is always to try just one more time."

Thomas Edison


You will find yourself refreshed by the presence of cheerful people.
Why not make earnest effort to confer that pleasure on others?...Half
the battle is gained if you never allow yourself to say anything gloomy.

Lydia M. Child


Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've
imagined. As you simplify your life, the law of the universe will be
simpler.

Henry David Thoreau


Many people die with their music still in them. Why is this so? Too
often it is because they are always getting ready to live. Before they
know it, time runs out.

Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell
you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which
tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of
action and follow it to an end requires...courage.

Ralph Waldo Emerson


Great minds have great purposes, others have wishes. Little minds
are tamed and subdued by misfortune; but great minds rise above
them.

Washington Irving


The bravest thing you can do when you are not brave is to profess
courage and act accordingly."

Corra May Harris


Defeat is not the worst of failures. Not to have tried is the true failure."

George E. Woodberry


Man often becomes what he believes himself to be. If I keep on saying
to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end
by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I shall
have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do
it, even if I may not have it at the beginning.

Mahatma Gandhi


Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be
the living expression of God's kindness: kindness in your face,
kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.

Mother Teresa


Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature nor do the
children of man as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer
in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring
adventure, or nothing."

Helen Keller
