Don't feel bad for making decisions that upset other people. you're not responsible for their happiness, you're responsible for yours.

Your failures are not setbacks; they are opportunities for growth and learning.

Middle age is when your broad mind and narrow waist begin to change places.

A good friend who points out mistakes and imperfections and rebukes evil is to be respected as if he reveals the secret of some hidden treasure.

Believing in negative thoughts is the single greatest obstruction to success.

The trick is to be grateful when your luck is good, and when it's bad, to believe that it will get better.

Take risks in your life. If you win, you can lead; if you lose, you can guide.
