A pinch of praise is worth a pound of scorn. A dash of encouragement is more helpful than a dipper of pessimism. A cup of kindness is better than a cupboard of criticism.

The adventure of life is to learn. The purpose of life is to grow. The nature of life is to change. The challenge of life is to overcome. The essence of life is to care. The opportunity of like is to serve. The secret of life is to dare. The spice of life is to befriend. The beauty of life is to give.

Success never resides in the world of weak wishes, but in the palace of purposeful plans and prayerful persistence.

A complaining tongue reveals an ungrateful heart.

If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.

To make mistakes is human; to stumble is commonplace; to be able to laugh at yourself is maturity.

Once trust is tarnished, it is hard to restore it to its original glow.
