If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.
William Arthur WardThe pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails.
William Arthur WardFreedom's enemies are waste, lethargy, indifference, immorality, and the insidious attitude of something for nothing.
William Arthur WardTo laugh is to risk appearing a fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out to another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure. But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.
William Arthur WardEvery person has the power to make others happy. Some do it simply by entering a room others by leaving the room. Some individuals leave trails of gloom; others, trails of joy. Some leave trails of hate and bitterness; others, trails of love and harmony. Some leave trails of cynicism and pessimism; others trails of faith and optimism. Some leave trails of criticism and resignation; others trails of gratitude and hope. What kind of trails do you leave?
