“We are more alike, my friends, than we are unalike.”
“Hate, it has caused a lot of problems in the world, but has not solved one yet.”
“If one is lucky, a solitary fantasy can totally transform one million realities.”
“Nothing will work unless you do.”
“You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.”
“You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.”
“We need much less than we think we need.”
“When you learn, teach; when you get, give.”
“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”
“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”
“Try to be a rainbow in someone else's cloud.”
“Nothing can dim the light that shines from within.”
“We may encounter many defeats but we must not be defeated.”
“If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.”
“When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.”
“I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”
“You will face many defeats in life, but never let yourself be defeated.”
