Happiness is a state of mind, and depends very little on outward circumstances.

If I am happy in spite of my deprivations, if my happiness is so deep that it is a faith, so thoughtful that it becomes a philosophy of life. If, in short, I am an optimist, my testimony to the creed of optimism is worth hearing.

Until the great mass of the people shall be filled with the sense of responsibility for each other's welfare, social justice can never be attained.

I am a child of my generation, and I rejoice that I live in such splendidly disturbing times.

We can do anything we want to if we stick to it long enough.

It is better to have no sight than it is to have no vision.

Burn brightly without burning out. Throw your heart over the fense and the rest will follow. Keep your face to the sunshine and you wont see the shadows
