Quote
Time crawls when you are bored,walks when you are occupied,runs when you are busy,but flies when you are having fun.Death creeps when you are bored,skulks when you are occupied,slithers when you are busy,but strikes when you are having fun.Life tarries when you are bored,hastens when you are occupied,scurries when you are busy,but disappears when you are having fun.

Quote
I was taught by family at ten.I was taught by books at twenty.I was taught by enemies at thirty.I was taught by nature at forty.I was taught by life at fifty.At ten, I was foolish.At twenty, I was naïve.At thirty, I was alert.At forty, I was experienced.At fifty, I was wise.

The weak forgive none, the strong forgive some, the great forgive many, and the enlightened forgive all.Trust unites, fear divides, mercy heals, and love conquers.

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.
