Having the least usually forces us to make the most of what we have.

To evade arrogance, remind yourself (from time to time) that your talent or success could have been better. To be thankful, remind yourself (every now and then) that your illness or failure could have been worse.

Dear God, Thank you for another day, my health, and the internet.

We owe some of our successes to people who did not want to help us more than we do to those who have helped us.

Nobody is stopping you from using things such as your ability to read or hear as your definition of ‘success’ or ‘wealth’.

We ought to be thankful not only for what we have but also for what we do not have.

Pitying a living man for being poor is like envying a dead man for being rich.

Some people would kill to instead be in the situation because of which some people have killed themselves.

Usually, that which could have been better could have been worse.
