"You are always a valuable, worthwhile human being, not because anybody says so, not because you''re successful, not because you make a lot of money, but because you decide to believe it and for no other reason."
Failures are often the results of timidity and fears; disappointments are the results of bashfulness; hours of leisure pass away like summer-clouds, therefore, do not waste opportunity of doing good
The art of living does not consist
in preserving and clinging
to a particular mood of happiness,
but in allowing happiness
to change its form without
being disappointed by the change;
for happiness, like a child,
must be allowed to grow up.
