A flower always turns its face to light; be likewise.

If the past could be changed, it would not exist. If the future could be stopped, it would not survive. If the present could be avoided, it would not prevail.

A bee, though small, can still sting you; an elephant, though calm, can still trample you; a lion, though full, can still devour you.

If you want to know how fortunate you are, visit three places: the slum, the hospital, and the cemetery.

You are an original masterpiece; imitating someone else diminishes your value.

Ignorance hides in darkness; wisdom hides in light.

Your mind is a weapon. Your heart is an asset. Your soul is a treasure. Your life is a jewel.

The most beautiful eyes haven’t been seen yet; the most beautiful tongue hasn’t been heard yet; the most beautiful hands haven’t been held yet; the most beautiful mind hasn’t been understood yet; the most beautiful heart hasn’t been felt yet; and the most beautiful life hasn’t been lived yet.

Love in fools is better than hate in the wise.
