“Quietly endure, silently suffer and patiently wait.”

The end of life is not to be happy, nor to achieve pleasure and avoid pain, but to do the will of God, come what may.

Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal.

Morality cannot be legislated, but behavior can be regulated. Judicial decrees may not change the heart, but they can restrain the heartless.

We cannot walk alone. And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead. We cannot turn back.

We must substitute courage for caution.

Hate destroys the hater.

Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.

Be the peace you wish to see in the world.

Courage is an inner resolution to go forward despite obstacles

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy to a friend.

Without love, there is no reason to know anyone, for love will in the end connect us to our neighbors, our children and our hearts.

We are not makers of history. We are made by history.

Cowardice is submissive surrender to circumstances.

Those who are not looking for happiness are the most likely to find it, because those who are searching forget that the surest way to be happy is to seek happiness for others.

The day we see the truth and cease to speak is the day we begin to die.

Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.

The spirit, the will to win, and the will to excel are the things that endure. These qualities are so much more important than the events that occur.

In the dynamic experience of life, problems come and go, but the human spirit endures.

Life is truly known only to those who suffer, lose, endure adversity and stumble from defeat to defeat.

Anonymous heroes who endure long days and nights away from their families, so that ours are safe from COVID19.

The tree is a slow, enduring force straining to win the sky.

Please try to remember that what they believe, as well as what they do and cause you to endure does not testify to your inferiority but to their inhumanity.

In the house of poetry nothing endures that is not written with blood to be heard with blood.

Every difficulty in life presents us with an opportunity to turn inward and to invoke our own submerged inner resources. The trials we endure can and should introduce us to our strengths.
