Do one thing every day that scares you.
Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people.
We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.
Do what you feel in your heart to be right – for you’ll be criticized anyway.
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Learn from the mistakes of others, you can't live long enough to make them all yourself.
I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.
It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself.
Never allow a person to tell you no who doesn't have the power to say yes.
Nobody can make you feel inferior without your consent.
With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.
Do what you feel in your heart to be right. You'll be criticized anyway.
A woman is like a tea bag - you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water.
It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.
You always admire what you really don't understand.
You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with the best you have to give.
Perhaps nature is our best assurance of immortality.
Life must be lived and curiosity kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
Friendship with oneself is all-important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.
