There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation
Where the willingness is great, the difficulties cannot be great
You can never turn your back on the ocean
You will have to make up for the smallness of your size by your courage and selfless devotion to duty, for it is not life that matters, but the courage, fortitude and determination you bring to it
Never discourage anyone...who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.
Never ruin an apology with an excuse
