Never bend your head. Hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye
What we once enjoyed and deeply loved we can never lose, For all that we love deeply becomes a part of us
Keep your face to the sun and you will never see the shadows
Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much
Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar
The life of the dead is set in the memory of the living
Backbiting is the attempt of one who is incapable of doing better himself
It is the nature of the self to manifest itself, In every atom slumbers the might of the self
A man who has no confidence in himself can accomplish nothing.
To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others
The chief enemy of creativity is good sense
