We are made wise not by the recollection of our past, but by the responsibility for our future.
If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal, not to people or objects.
Count the garden by the flowers, never by the leaves that fall. Count your life with smiles and not the tears that roll...
The reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolved than it will be.
Do not wait for extraordinary situations to do good, try to use ordinary situations.
The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear, resentment or love. What seeds will you plant there.
Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant.
In what you say of another, apply the test of kindness, necessity and truth, and let nothing pass your lips without a 2/3 majority.
We do not stop exercising because we grow old – we grow old because we stop exercising.
Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.
