Remember that life's big changes rarely give advance warning.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.

A kiss on the beach when there is a full moon is the closest thing to heaven.

When you can’t change the direction of the wind — adjust your sails

Ask an older person you respect to tell you his or her greatest regret.

Believe in miracles but don't depend on them. When you hear kind word spoken about a friend, tell him so. Spoil your spouse, not your children. Never make fun of someone who speaks broken English. It means they know another language. To help your children turn out well, spend twice as much time with them and half as much money.

I've learned that education, experience, and memories are three things that no one can take away from you.
