The really poor man is not the one who lacks money, but the one who lacks the joy of the heart.

Man can change his destiny-not by wishing for it, but by working for it.

But the self-controlled man, moving among objects, with his senses under restraint, and free from both attraction and repulsion, attains peace.

The future is carved out of the present moment. Tomorrow's harvest depends upon today's ploughing and sowing.

Love is a consistent passion to give, not a meek persistent hope to receive. The only demand of life is the privilege to love all.

Children are not vessels to be filled but lamps to be lit.

The really poor man is not the one who lacks money, but the one who lacks the joy of the heart.
