A teacher's purpose is not to create students in his own image, but to develop students who can create their own image.

You will always be your mother’s child, even if you forget to look after her. You will always be your father’s child, even if you don’t care to respond to him.

Those that are the loudest in their threats are the weakest in their actions.

“Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.”

“Zeal without humanity is like a ship without a rudder, liable to be stranded at any moment”

“Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritation and resentments slip away, and a sunny spirit takes their place.”

“You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.”

“With a genuine keenness or readiness to serve others, one can attain happiness in any group or community, and the very eagerness to serve others will endow you with the power and skill necessary for the required service.Nowadays, we tend to regard it as derogatory to serve, but there is great worth in service.”

Gratitude is the inward feeling of kindness received. Thankfulness is the natural impulse to express that feeling. Thanksgiving is the following of that impulse.

How lovely are the portals of the night,
When stars come out to watch the daylight die.

“Seeds of faith are always within us; sometimes it takes a crisis to nourish and encourage their growth.”

“Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.”

Somewhere we know that without silence words lose their meaning, that without listening speaking no longer heals, that without distance closeness cannot cure.

“Among Life's precious jewels, Genuine and rare, The one that we call friendship Has worth beyond compare.”

“Anyone can become angry - that is easy, but to be angry with the right person at the right time, and for the right purpose and in the right way - that is not within everyone's power and that is not easy.”

We are what our thoughts have made us; so take care about what you think. Words are secondary. Thoughts live; they travel far.

Men think highly of those who rise rapidly in the world; whereas nothing rises quicker than dust, straw, and feathers.

Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them - that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.

In times of great stress or adversity, it's always best to keep busy, to plow your anger and your energy into something positive.

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
~William Wordsworth, "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud," 1804

I’m crazy to love unknown people,
who can sing amazing love songs.
I’m crazy to befriend total strangers,
who can share a simple laugh with me.
Maybe, that’s my talent.

True love is neither physical nor romantic.
True love is an acceptance of all that is,
has been, will be, and will not be.

Trying to live a successful life without God is like being a light bulb and trying to light up without being plugged up, impossible.
