Often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.

I have found life so beautiful.

The highest thinkers of the ages, the seers of the tribes and the nations, have been optimists.

The highest result of education is tolerance.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long in disappointment and bitterness at the closed door that we do not expectantly look for and therefore see with pleasure and gratitude the one which has been opened for us.

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.

Through my handicaps, I have found my self, my work, my God.
