To be fully alive, fully human, and completely awake is to be continually thrown out of the nest.

With confidence, you have won before you have started.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line.

I didn't fall in love, I rose in it.

When you run into something interesting, drop everything else and study it.

The power of finding beauty in the humblest things makes home happy and life lovely.

The beginning of wisdom is to do away with fear.

A happy life consists not in the absence, but in the mastery of hardships.

Happiness is a simple, frugal heart.

Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something.

It is only after the deepest darkness that the greatest joy can come.

In the depths of Winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.
