Our ability to achieve happiness and success depends on the strength of our wings.
Go to your bosom: Knock there, and ask your heart what it doth know.
Self-pity is our worst enemy and if we yield to it, we can never do anything good in the world.
Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward.
The aim of life is no more to control the mind, but to develop it harmoniously; not to achieve salvation here after, but to make the best use of it here below; and not to realise truth, beauty and good only in contemplation, but also in the actual experience of daily life; social progress depends not upon the ennoblement of the few but on the enrichment of democracy; universal brotherhood can be achieved only when there is an equality of opportunity - of opportunity in the social, political and individual life.
“A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the stairs a step at a time.”
