True confidence is not about what you take from someone to restore yourself, but what you give back to your critics because they need it more than you do.

Most people are about as happy as their self confidence will allow them to be.

Nostalgia has a way of blocking the reality of the past.

Beauty is not who you are on the outside, it is the wisdom and time you gave away to save another struggling soul like you.

The way you think about yourself determines your reality. You are not being hurt by the way people think about you. Many of those people are a reflection of how you think about yourself.

The moment you have to recruit people to put another person down, in order to convince someone of your value is the day you dishonor your children, your parents and your God. If someone doesn't see your worth the problem is them, not people outside your relationship.

The number of chances you give someone doesn't tell the world how loving you are without telling them how desperate you are to believe they care as much as you. True love resides in the first chance, stupidity in the second, opportunists in the third and scoundrels in the fourth.

Often those that criticise others reveal what he himself lacks.

A best friend is the one person that doesn't leave you worse off by their actions or yours.
