Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality. |
If the world seems cold to you, kindle fires to warm it. |
They're only truly great who are truly good. |
Open your mouth only if what you are going to say is more beautiful than silence. |
If you don't feel it, flee from it. Go where you are celebrated, not merely tolerated. |
If you wish to glimpse inside a human soul and get to know a man, don't bother analyzing his ways of being silent, of talking, of weeping, of seeing how much he is moved by noble ideas; you will get better results if you just watch him laugh. If he laughs well, he's a good man. |
Treat others as you wish to be treated. Don't just be nice, but be kind to other people. That can be so rewarding. |
If you can't you must, and if you must you can. |
If our actions stem from honesty kindness, caring and vision, then no matter what the result of our efforts, we have added something of value to our souls and to the world. |
He who is not a good servant will not be a good master. |
