Value yourself. The only people who appreciate a doormat are people with dirty shoes.

Each of our acts makes a statement as to our purpose.

One cannot give what he does not possess. To give love you must possess love. To love others you must love yourself.

Education should be the process of helping everyone to discover his uniqueness, to teach him how to develop that uniqueness, and then to show him how to share it because that’s the only reason for having anything.

To love is to risk not being loved in return.

That's love. That's all it means. It means sharing joy with people.

Happiness comes only when we push our brains and hearts to the farthest reaches of which we are capable. The purpose of life is to matter-to count, to stand for something, to have it make so difference that we lived at all.
