Happiness is a state of mind, and depends very little on outward circumstances.
I will not just live my life. I will not just spend my life. I will invest my life.
Everybody talks, nobody listens. Good listeners are as rare as white crows.
A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships.
To be blind is bad, but worse is to have eyes and not see.
The power of effecting changes for the better is within ourselves, not in the favorableness of circumstances.
