The strongest oak of the forest is not the one that is
protected from the storm and hidden from the sun. It's the
one that stands in the open where it is compelled to
struggle for existence against the winds and rains and the
scorching sun.
Napoleon Hill
I'm not happy, I'm cheerful. There's a difference. A happy
woman has no cares at all. A cheerful woman has cares but
has learned how to deal with them.
Beverly Sills (1929-)
American Opera Singer
"All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous
unpremeditated act without the benefit of experience."
Henry Miller
"We must use time as a tool, not as a crutch."
John F. Kennedy
"If one speaks or acts with a cruel mind, misery follows, as
the cart follows the horse... If one speaks or acts with a pure
mind, happiness follows, as a shadow follows its source."
the Dhammapada
