Yesterday we obeyed kings and bent our necks before emperors. But today we kneel only to truth, follow only beauty, and obey only love.

I slept and I dreamed that life is all joy. I woke and I saw that life is all service. I served and I saw that service is joy.

We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.

I prefer to be a dreamer among the humblest, with visions to be realized, than lord among those without dreams and desires.

He who does not see the kingdom of heaven in this life will never see it in the coming life.

Hell is not in torture; Hell is in an empty heart.

Tenderness and kindness are not signs of weakness and despair, but manifestations of strength and resolution.
