Life is short and unpredictable. Eat the dessert first!

No matter how dull, or how mean, or how wise a man is, he feels that happiness is his indisputable right.

Don't give me the peace that passeth understanding, give me understanding.

We can drift along with general opinion and tradition, or we can throw ourselves upon the guidance of the soul within and steer courageously toward truth... We have a choice in every event and every limitation and....to choose is to create.

I can not do everything, but I can do something. I must not fail to do the something that I can do.

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

The simplest way to be happy is to do good.
