Dwell on the beauty of life.

You have power over your mind — not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

Accept the things to which fate binds you, and love the people with whom fate brings you together, but do so with all your heart.

Look back over the past, with its changing empires that rose and fell, and you can foresee the future, too.

Everything that exists is in a manner the seed of that which will be.

The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.

If it is not right do not do it; if it is not true do not say it.

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.
