Don't ask whether it is going to be easy. Ask whether it is worth it.

Character is both formed and revealed by how one deals with everyday situations as well as extraordinary pressures and temptations. Like a well-made tower, character is built stone by stone, decision by decision.

Your life is your ship and you are the captain. Choose your course, take the wheel firmly and get on your way.

Don't confuse fun with fulfillment, or pleasure with happiness.

Go out there and do your part to change the world. You may not change all you had hoped but the world will be better for the caring demonstrated by your effort.

Honesty doesn't always pay, but dishonesty always costs.

Failure is much easier to handle if you just think of it as feedback to guide your next effort.
