Quote
When I was weak, I was full of fear.When I was strong, I was full of hope.When I was a happy, I was full of peace.When I was a sad, I was full of suffering.When I was poor, I was full of gratitude.When I was rich, I was full of longing.When I was wise, I was full of grace.When I was foolish, I was full of ignorance. When I was a child, I was full of joy.When I was a youth, I was full of laughter.When I was an adult, I was full of trouble.When I was an elder, I was full of wisdom.

Quote
Don’t mourn over the past, it has no pity for you. Don’t cry over the present,it has no sympathy for you; and don’t weep over the future, it has no mercy on you.You can mourn for the past, but it has already gone.You can cry over the present, but it has already arrived;and you can weep over the future, but it was already within you.

Quote
Truth has no ears. Ignorance has no eyes. Fear has no hands. Lust has no mind. Hate has no heart. Evil has no soul.Instinct has lips to speak to the mind.Hope has feet to carry the heart.Joy has hands to lift the soul.Truth has eyes to see the world. Love has ears to hear the universe.

Quote
Time crawls when you are bored, walks when you are occupied,runs when you are busy,but flies when you are having fun.You cannot fast-forward it,you cannot rewind it, and you cannot pause it; you can only waste or benefit from it.

When you take care of your mind, you take care of your heart.When you take care of your heart, you take care of your soul.When you take care of your soul, you take care of your life. When you take care of your thoughts,you take care of your character.When you take care of your character,you take care of your actions.When you take care of your actions,you take care of your destiny.

Quote
Greed is your opponent, pride is your enemy, envy is your adversary, contentment is your friend, and love is your helper.Ignorance is your rival, fear is your nemesis, vice is your opposition, virtue is your advocate, and wisdom is your ally.

Quote
Let them judge you, but remain virtuous.Let them criticize you, but remain wise.Let them misunderstand you, but remain kind. Let them hate you, but remain exceptional.They know your face, but not your mind.They understand your words, but not your heart.They hear your name, but not your soul.They grasp your past, but not your future.
