Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year. He is rich who owns the day, and no one owns the day who allows it to be invaded with fret and anxiety. Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities, no doubt crept in. Forget them as soon as you can, tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely, with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This new day is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the yesterdays.

The mind, once stretched by a new idea, never returns to its original dimensions.

The invariable mark of wisdom is to see the miraculous in the common.

Live in the sunshine, swim the sea, drink the wild air.

Before we acquire great power we must acquire wisdom to use it well.

The only way to have a friend is to be one.

Your actions speak so loud, I can't hear what you say.

None of us will ever accomplish anything excellent or commanding except when he listens to this whisper which is heard by him alone.

Neither you nor the world knows what you can do until you have tried.

People only see what they are prepared to see.

Every sunset brings the promise of a new dawn.
