A negative outlook is dangerous. When you say, “It can’t get any worse!” You're essentially challenging the universe to do exactly that.

Want to help others? Be yourself. You’ll inspire others to muster the courage to be themselves as well.

Know this: whenever you think of leaving, a part of you has already left. But it’s never too late to get it back.

I have died at the ripe age of twenty.Smile, for the world didn't get a chance to disappoint me.I have died at the mature age of ninety.Smile, for my life was more than satisfying.I have died suddenly—out of the blue.Smile, for I didn't have to fall ill before you.I have died from a long illness.Smile, for I had the chance to say goodbye.I did not want to leave this Earth.But smile, for I am still here among you.Why are you crying?Can you not see I am smiling?

You think I'm giving up. I'm not. I'm giving in.

You have already lost if you are always fearful of losing everything.
