Keep your face to the sunshine and you will never see the shadow.

My optimism wears heavy boots and is loud.

You are not here merely to make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world, and to impoverish yourself if you forget the errand.

I don't care what people think or say about me, I know who I am.

So early in my life, I had learned that if you want something, you had better make some noise.

Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are

Weakness of attitude becomes weakness of character.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.

If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude. Don't complain.

Start by doing what is necessary, then what is possible, and suddenly you are doing the impossible.

Change will not come if we wait for some other person, or if we wait for some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.

People throw stones at you and you convert them into milestones.

To attain the impossible, one must attempt the absurd.

People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity, no matter how impressive their other talents.

Do not look for approval except for the consciousness of doing your best.

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.

When you're at the end of your rope, tie a knot and hold on

We have been called to heal wounds, to unite what has fallen apart, and to bring home those who have lost their way.

Gratitude is an illness suffered by dogs.
