“Every tomorrow has two handles. We can take hold of it with the handle of anxiety or the handle of faith.”

A person without a sense of humor is like a wagon without springs. It’s jolted by every pebble on the road.

We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started.

I think you might dispense with half your doctors if you would only consult Dr. Sun more.
