The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.

What everyone wants more than anything else is to be loved.

To be thoughtful and kind only takes a few seconds compared to the timeless hurt caused by one rude gesture

Dream no small dreams for they have no power to move the hearts of men.

Success is not about finding shortcuts; it's about taking the long but fulfilling path towards your goals.

To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.

When people are determined, they can overcome anything.
