It is not in the stars to hold our destiny but in ourselves.
The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.
Where is this heaven? You have not even the power to see one grain of sand here. Can you see this earth of ours? The earth appears to us to be stationary, and the sun seems to go round us; but if we could get away from our earth, and look down from the sun upon it, we should see that it is moving round the sun in a circle, and that the sun is standing still. So it is with our conceptions of heaven and hell; they are not real, but only human conceptions.
Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
Try not to become a man of success, But rather try to become a man of value.
Success is not about seeking external validation; it's about finding inner satisfaction and peace within yourself.
