The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.

I do not think it worth while to wait for enjoyment until there is some real opportunity for it.

Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.

You will never get any more out of life than you expect.

The earth is the mother of all people, and all people should have equal rights upon it.

Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.

You can't lead the people if you don't love the people. You can't save the people, if you don't serve the people.

The quality of your life depends quite a bit on the quality of attention you project out onto the world.

Often when you think you’re at the end of something, you’re at the beginning of something else.

If it is true for you, it is true for someone else, and you are no longer alone.

You can't live a perfect day without doing something for someone who will never be able to repay you.

From our first babblings to our last word, we make but one statement, and that is our life.
