Character is doing the right thing even when it costs more than you want to pay. When it comes to character, you dont have to be sick to get better. Its easier for a good person to get better than for a bad person to get good.

The only force that can sustain true and consistent courage is some form of spiritual belief that values like honor, duty, loyalty and integrity above the status, power, money and even security.

Integrity, respect, compassion, and fairness become obstacles to people who think winning is everything

It is better to be unsuccessful pursuing a significant goal that being successful attaining an insignificant one.

Success or failure can only be measured in terms of a particular objective. The success of a person whose life objective is money or status will look very different than the success of one who sets out to make a positive difference in the world.

There is no objective criteria for either success or failure. People who achieve their goals are successful, those who don't are not.

Gratitude is not a payment for a kindness but another form of gift.
