Life is given to us, we earn it by giving it.

Age considers; youth ventures.

It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one's dignity, to work unhampered, to be generous, frank and independent.

Reach high, for stars lie hidden in you. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.

Every child comes with the message that God is not yet discouraged of man.

The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.

Everything comes to us that belongs to us if we create the capacity to receive it.

Beauty is truth's smile when she beholds her own face in a perfect mirror.

You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.

The flower which is single need not envy the thorns that are numerous.

Let us not pray to be sheltered from dangers but to be fearless when facing them.

Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.

Faith is the bird that feels the light and sings when the dawn is still dark.

Trees are the earth's endless effort to speak to the listening heaven.

I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy.

If you cry because the sun has gone out of your life, your tears will prevent you from seeing the stars.

We come nearest to the great when we are great in humility.

Do not say, 'It is morning,' and dismiss it with a name of yesterday. See it for the first time as a newborn child that has no name.
