Names are the sweetest and most important sound in any language.

Our trouble is not ignorance, but inaction.

Talk to someone about themselves and they'll listen for hours.

It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.

Keep your mind open to change all the time. Welcome it. Court it. It is only by examining and reexamining your opinions and ideas that you can progress.

You are something new in this world. Never before, since the beginning of time, has there ever been anybody exactly like you; and never again throughout all the ages to come will there ever be anybody exactly like you again.

If you want enemies, excel your friends; but if you want friends, let your friends excel you.
