Learning how to be still, to really be still and let life happen - that stillness becomes a radiance.

Let every dawn be to you as the beginning of life, and every setting sun be to you as its close.

Man never made any material as resilient as the human spirit.

Every day we should hear at least one little song, read one good poem, see one exquisite picture, and, if possible, speak a few sensible words.

Reach for it. Push yourself as far as you can.

A #2 pencil and a dream can take you anywhere.

Everyone here has the sense that right now is one of those moments when we are influencing the future.

If the world seems cold to you, kindle fires to warm it.

The glow of one warm thought is to me worth more than money.

It is only in sorrow bad weather masters us; in joy we face the storm and defy it.

Reach for the stars.

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life - and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing I wanted to do.

Your heart is full of fertile seeds, waiting to sprout.

Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non-being is the greatest joy.

God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with him.

A concerted effort to preserve our heritage is a vital link to our cultural, educational, aesthetic, inspirational, and economic legacies - all of the things that quite literally make us who we are.

Whoever is happy will make others happy too.

Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.

It really is an honor if I can be inspirational to a younger singer or person. It means I've done my job.

A human being has so many skins inside, covering the depths of the heart. We know so many things, but we don't know ourselves! Why, thirty or forty skins or hides, as thick and hard as an ox's or bear's, cover the soul. Go into your own ground and learn to know yourself there.

We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish.

Live your beliefs and you can turn the world around.

Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.

Of all things visible, the highest is the heaven of the fixed stars.

Countless as the sands of the sea are human passions.

Great hopes make great men.

Find out who you are and be that person. That's what your soul was put on this Earth to be. Find that truth, live that truth and everything else will come.

Cherish your visions and your dreams as they are the children of your soul, the blueprints of your ultimate achievements.

Do your little bit of good where you are; it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.

Light tomorrow with today!

Enthusiasm moves the world.

There is nothing stronger in the world than gentleness.

The only way to discover the limits of the possible is to go beyond them into the impossible.

I am so fresh in soul and spirit that life gushes and bubbles around me in a thousand springs.

Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.

Lord, grant that I may always desire more than I can accomplish.

You don't look out there for God, something in the sky, you look in you.

What great thing would you attempt if you knew you could not fail?

I believe there's an inner power that makes winners or losers. And the winners are the ones who really listen to the truth of their hearts.

I have always believed, and I still believe, that whatever good or bad fortune may come our way we can always give it meaning and transform it into something of value.

I believe every human has a finite number of heartbeats. I don't intend to waste any of mine.

Be faithful to that which exists within yourself.

The most beautiful thing in the world is, of course, the world itself.

Without craftsmanship, inspiration is a mere reed shaken in the wind.

Belief creates the actual fact.

We have it in our power to begin the world over again.

Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over.

I believe in living today. Not in yesterday, nor in tomorrow.

In oneself lies the whole world and if you know how to look and learn, the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth can give you either the key or the door to open, except yourself.

I believe that one defines oneself by reinvention. To not be like your parents. To not be like your friends. To be yourself. To cut yourself out of stone.
