“You can never win when you wear the ugly cloak of self-pity and the sour sound of whining.”

So long as I can laugh, never will I be poor.

One of the great undiscovered joys of life comes from doing everything one attempts to the best of one’s ability. The smallest task, well done, becomes a miracle of achievement.

And so long as I can laugh, never will I be poor. This then, is one of nature’s greatest gifts and I will waste it no more.

I will greet this day with love in my heart. For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures. Muscles can split a shield and even destroy life itself but only the unseen power of love can open the hearts of man.

I will laugh at the world! Never will I allow myself to become so important, so wise, so dignified, so powerful, that I forget how to laugh at myself and my world. And so long as I can Laugh never will I be poor.

So long as there is breath in me, that long I will persist. For now I know one of the greatest principles on success; if I persist long enough I will win.

The greatest legacy we can leave our children is happy memories.

With no goals, no priorities, no life strategy of our own, we drift with the herd through an endless meadow of mediocrity, unable to break loose, to achieve even a small part of the dreams we once cherished.

Journey quietly on your pathway to forever with charity & a smile. When you depart it will be said by all that your legacy was a better world than the one you found.

True happiness lies within you.

The weakest living creature, by concentrating his powers on a single object, can accomplish good results while the strongest, by dispersing his effort over many chores, may fail to accomplish anything.

In truth, the only difference between those who have failed and those who have succeeded lies in the difference of their habits.

Without enthusiasm you are doomed to a life of mediocrity, but with it you can accomplish miracles.

My dreams are worthless, my plans are dust, my goals are impossible. All are of no value unless they are followed by action.

Each day is a special gift from God, and while life may not always be fair, you must never allow the pains, hurdles, and handicaps of the moment to poison your attitude and plans for yourself and your future.

All the gold in the world cannot buy a dying man one more breath so what does that make today worth?

I’ve always been famous, it’s just no one knew it yet.

People ask me why I wear veils. I reply, I am mourning. Mourning what? Well I figure something shitty must be going on somewhere.

You have to stop crying, and you have to go kick some ass.

Attitude is a choice. Happiness is a choice. Optimism is a choice. Kindness is a choice. Giving is a choice. Respect is a choice. Whatever choice you make makes you. Choose wisely.

The most important attitude that can be formed is that of desire to go on learning.

Happiness depends on your mindset and attitude.

Attitude is attitude, whether you’re a West Coast gangster or East Coast gangster, you know?

To abstain from politics is in itself a political attitude.
