A good man does not spy around for the black spots in others, but presses unswervingly on towards his mark.

If you are distressed by something, it is due to your own estimate of it; and you have the power to change it at will.

Change your attitude to the things that bother you and you will be aware of them.

I was once a fortunate man but at some point fortune abandoned me. But true good fortune is what you make for yourself. Good fortune: good character, good intentions, and good actions.

All things are linked with one another, and this oneness is sacred; there is nothing that is not interconnected with everything else. For things are interdependent, and they combine to form this universal order. There is only one universe made up of all things, and one creator who pervades them; there is one substance and one law, namely, common reason in all thinking creatures, and all truth is one-if, as we believe, there is only one path of perfection for all beings who share the same mind.

Remember this - that there is a proper dignity and proportion to be observed in the performance of every act of life.

While you live, while it is in your power, be good.
