Never try to compel others to change; leave them free to change naturally and orderly because they want to; and they will want to when they find that your change was worthwhile. To inspire in others a desire to chance for the better is truly noble; but this you can do only by leaving them alone, and becoming more noble yourself.

Be too big for worry and too noble for anger.

Nature intends all men and women to be mental and spiritual giants, and does not intend that any one should follow the will of another.

True achievement in any sphere of action depends upon real ability, and a strong, deep, whole-souled love.

Make your optimism come true.

The more grateful you are for everything good that comes into your life, the more closely you place your mind in contact with that power in life that can produce greater good.
