Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.

Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement.

Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them; but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight.

We could never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world.

Keep yourself to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow.
