The great ones in life are not those who are handed silver spoons. Their excellence comes from digging into the raw ore of their own character, through hard work, persistence and faith turning whatever they touch into gold.

The real quality of our life is not determined by what we have won from it, but by what we have discovered within it.

No condition outside ourselves can create a rut or trap us in it. It's impossible.

Talking to yourself proves only one thing: you're still unable to tell the difference between good and bad company.

Know that everything is in perfect order whether you understand it or not.

Every relationship that we have in our lives - our contact with each person, place, and event - serves a very special, if yet to be realized purpose: They are mirrors that can serve to show us things about ourselves that can be realized in no other way.

Never speak out of anger, Never act out of fear, Never choose from impatience, But wait... and peace will appear.
