Cultivate your own capabilities, your own style. Appreciate the members of your family for who they are, even though their outlook or style may be miles different from yours. Rabbits don't fly. Eagles don't swim. Ducks look funny trying to climb. Squirrels don't have feathers. Stop comparing. There's plenty of room in the forest.

On tough days, you gotta have heart. Don't quit, whatever you do. Persevere.

Man is the only animal that when you pat him on the head, his head swells up.
