The more we count the blessings we have, the less we crave the luxuries we haven't.

Better to master one mountain than a thousand foothills.

Believe while others are doubting.

Fools act on imagination without knowledge. Pedants act on knowledge without imagination.

Optimists enrich the present, enhance the future,challenge the improbable and attain the impossible

Empathy feels these thoughts; your hurt is in my heart, your loss is in my prayers, your sorrow is in my soul, and your tears are in my eyes.

Real optimism is exposed to the worst but expects the best.
