Just about ANY personality trait or skill can be learned: simply find it in someone you know and copy it. Then watch what happens.

Don't live in the past - you've already been there. And don't live in the future, either. Tomorrow will be here soon enough. Live in this moment now - it is sacred and unrepeatable. This moment alone holds valuable gifts that should not be missed.

I am discovering that I can live far better without cynicism than I can without trust.

The good man brings good to things out of the good stored up in his heart.

I admire some people for their brilliance and I respect others for their strength. But I am indebted to those who can rekindle my spirit.

As much as I enjoy romance, it's commitment that I need the most. I need to know a love I can depend on, a love that says, "I will be with you through it all. I love you. And I will love you even when you may not be all that lovable, for sometimes I'm not very lovable either. You can count on me - always."

The sun rises every morning and sheds light, vanquishing the night's darkness. The rooster also rises every morning only, unlike the sun, he simply makes noise. But the darkness of the night is dispelled by sunshine, not by the rooster's crowing. The world can use more light and less noise. Wherever I can, I want to be light.
