“Love is more than a noun-it is a verb; it is more than a feeling-it is caring, sharing, helping, sacrificing.”

Man, like the bridge, was designed to carry the load of the moment, not the combined weight of a year at once.

The pessimist borrows trouble; the optimists lend encouragement.

The greatest ideas, the most profound thoughts, and the most beautiful poetry are born from the womb of silence.

What you believe is more important than what you possess. What you live is more lasting than what you profess. Whom you inspire is more significant than whom you impress.

Success never resides in the world of weak wishes, but in the palace of purposeful plans and prayerful persistence.

A pinch of praise is worth a pound of scorn. A dash of encouragement is more helpful than a dipper of pessimism. A cup of kindness is better than a cupboard of criticism.

For each new morning with its light, For rest and shelter of the night, For health and food, for love and friends. Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.

If you can imagine it, you can achieve it. If you can dream it, you can become it.

We are more than what we do much more than what we accomplish far more than what we possess.

Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I will not forget you. Love me and I may be forced to love you.

A success is one who decided to succeed and worked. A failure is one who decided to succeed and wished.

To bear defeat with dignity, to accept criticism with poise, to receive honors with humility – these are marks of maturity and graciousness.

We can be resentful of our age, or we can be grateful for having attained it.

Faith is knowing there is an ocean because you have seen a brook.

A friend is one with whom you are comfortable, to whom you are loyal, through whom you are blessed, and for whom you are grateful.

Do more than believe: practice.

We struggled together, and sometimes, we struggled with one another. We took care of one another. In the end, we kept faith in each other.

Every fresh experience points out some form of error which we shall afterwards carefully avoid.

If you ever feel lonely and feel that no one loves you and cares for you – remember me.

Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.

We continually encounter hardships. People disappoint us. We disappoint ourselves. But God is constant and compassionate. We are not alone. He cares. Against all reason, the transcendent God loves us so much that He has committed Himself to us.

We suffered. We worried. We lost. We wept. But loved, and laughed, and cared, and helped.

I have always cared about the Indian Rhinos & am speaking up for these mighty beings.

When my cats aren’t happy, I’m not happy. Not because I care about their mood but because I know they’re just sitting there thinking up ways to get even.
