My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.

There is no shortcut to anyplace worth going.

Don't get me started on critics.

There is no short cut to a place worth going.

A happy woman is one who has no cares at all; a cheerful woman is one who has cares but doesn't let them get her down.

There are no shortcuts to any place worth going.

I had found a kind of serenity, a new maturity. I didn't feel better or stronger than anyone else but it seemed no longer important whether everyone loved me or not - more important now was for me to love them. Feeling that way turns your whole life around; living becomes the act of giving.
