We are citizens of the world. The tragedy of our times is that we do not know this.

Identify your problems but give your power and energy to solutions

First ask yourself: What is the worst that can happen? Then prepare to accept it. Then proceed to improve on the worst.

Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bear bad fruit.

Every problem is a gift - without problems we would not grow.

Don't find fault, find a remedy; anybody can complain

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.

The duty of youth is to challenge corruption.
