If you cannot do great things, do small things in a great way.

“That is what compassion does. It challenges our assumptions, our sense of self-limitation, worthlessness, of not having a place in the world, our feelings of loneliness and estrangement. These are narrow, constrictive states of mind. As we develop compassion, our hearts open.”

“A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.”

The less you respond to negative people, the more positive your life will become.

“Instead of complaining about your circumstances, get busy and create some new ones.”

“We must understand that sadness is an ocean, and sometimes we drown, while other days we are forced to swim.”

“Outer beauty attracts, but inner beauty captivates.”

A leader is one who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.

“Home is the place, where, when you have to go there, they have to take you in.”
