“Experience is not what happens to a man. It is what a man does with what happens to him.”

There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that's your own self.

A thing long expected takes the form of the unexpected when at last it comes.

We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do.

Make the best use of what is in your power, and take the rest as it happens.

The cautious seldom err.

Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.

In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.
