We must be silent before we can listen. We must listen before we can learn. We must learn before we can prepare. We must prepare before we can serve. We must serve before we can lead.

God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say 'thank you?'

Lose yourself in generous service and every day can be a most unusual day, a triumphant day, an abundantly rewarding day!

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.

Enthusiasm is the match that lights the candle of achievement.

Today is a most unusual day, because we have never lived it before; we will never live it again; it is the only day we have.

As the valley gives height to the mountain, so can sorrow give meaning to pleasure; as the well is the source of the fountain, deep adversity can be a treasure.
