There are some things we should feel guilty about, but the guilt feelings should attach to the deed, not to the doer.

Never attribute to malice or other deliberate decision what can be explained by human frailty, imperfection, or ignorance.

Our souls are not hungry for fame, comfort, wealth, or power. Our souls are hungry for meaning, for the sense that we have figured out how to live so that our lives matter.

There is no right way to do a wrong thing.

The purpose in life is not to win. The purpose in life is to grow and to share. "When you come to look back on all that you have done in life, you will get more satisfaction from the pleasure you have brought into other people's lives than you will from the times that you outdid and defeated them.

The circumstances of your life have uniquely qualified you to make a contribution. And if you don't make that contribution, nobody else can make it.
