I'm very blessed that I have a healthy temper. I can become quite angry and burning in anger, but I have never been bitter. Bitterness is a corrosive, terrible acid. It just eats you and makes you sick.

You think you may not be heard. Speak anyway.

We can be better, we can be wiser, we can be more kind. Yes we have to change. We have to grow up and stop acting like 10 years old. Yes there is much to do, much to see, much to go into.

The happy heart runs with the river, floats on the air, lifts to the music, soars with the eagle, hopes with the prayer.

In all the world, there is no heart for me like yours. In all the world, there is no love for you like mine.

You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.

Growing up, I decided, a long time ago, I wouldn't accept any manmade differences between human beings, differences made at somebody else's insistence or someone else's whim or convenience.
