There's a hole in the moral ozone and it's getting bigger.

The best way to show true gratitude for all our blessings is to be genuinely happy.

Good intentions are simply not enough. Our character is defined and our lives are determined not by what we want, say or think, but by what we do.

Character is made up of core moral principles called the Six Pillars of Character: trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, caring, fairness and citizenship. Each of these virtues are independently important but together they provide the foundation for a worthy life.

What will matter is not what you learned, but what you taught.

Physical courage to a person of honour is easier and less risky than acts that could subject him to embarrassment or humiliation or a diminished career or reputation. These things he must live with. To die for honor is an easier thought to bear.

Gratitude is most treasured when it is unexpected. When we expect, even demand gratitude, we treat it simply as payment due for some service we rendered and we squeeze any good feeling out of it.
