“Let the refining and improving of your own life keep you so busy that you have little time to criticize others.”

Remember that almost everything looks better after a good night’s sleep.

Never give up on what you really want to do

Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures.

A friend is someone who knows you and loves you for what you were and who you are, and who also shares your hopes and dreams for who you can become.

Life is slippery. Here, take my hand.

After you’ve work hard to get what you want, take the time to enjoy it.

Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.

People who accomplish big things did small things well.

Love is when the other person’s happiness is more important than your own.

Get your priorities straight. No one ever said on his death bed, ‘Gee, if I’d only spent more time at the office.’

Don’t flaunt your success, but don’t apologize for it either.

Choose your life’s mate carefully. From this one decision will come 90 percent of all your happiness or misery.

Always kiss your children goodnight, even if they’re already asleep.

Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are, to some extent, a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it, piece by piece – by thought, choice, courage, and determination.

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Opportunity dances with those already on the dance floor.

I’m only good at being bad.

Loss is not as bad as wanting more.

Everybody is friends when things are bad enough.

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

No matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow.

Bad leaders care about who is right, good leaders care about who is right.

There was never a bad peace or a good war.

Friends. They aren’t any such thing as good friend or bad friend. Maybe there are just friend.
