| I know that my life is derailed and my heart is hard when I can no longer empathize with or have compassion for others and focus only on my wants. |

| It's not suffering that destroys the soul, it's suffering without meaning that destroys a persons’ soul. Find meaning in your life today. |

| You must do that which seems impossible. It is within challenges that the miracles of life are had. |

If you are called to be a street sweeper, be the best. Sweep the streets as Beethoven composed, Michael Angelo painted, but you be the best. |
Dr. Martin Luther King |
|
| Small things with great love... It is not how much we do, but how much love we put into the doing. And it is not how much we give, but how much love we put into the giving. To God there is nothing small. |
| Mother Theresa |

| Anyone can be great, because anyone can serve. |

|
| You will become as small as your controlling desire, or as great as your dominant aspiration. |

| Enduring happiness is never found in justice, it is only found in mercy and compassion! |

|
| The sea is dangerous and its storms terrible, but these obstacles have never been sufficient reason to remain ashore ... Unlike the mediocre, intrepid spirits seek victory over those things that seem impossible ... It is with an iron will that they embark on the most daring of all endeavors ... to meet the shadowy future without fear and conquer the unknown. |
| Ferdinand Magellan |

Life is not measured in years; it is measured in moments. |
| Elie Wiesel |
|
Our worst fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure! It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be?
You are a Child Of God: your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone, and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

|
| A musician must make music, an artist must paint, a poet must write if he is to be a peace with himself. One must be what one can be. |
| Abraham Maslow |
|
| People are unreasonable, illogical, and self centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway. |

| Only to the extent that someone is living out this self transcendence of human existence, is he truly human or does he become his true self. He becomes so, not by concerning himself with his self's actualization, but by forgetting himself and giving himself, overlooking himself and focusing outward. |
| Viktor Frankl |
|
| We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of human freedoms - to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances - to choose one's own way. |

| What is to give light must endure burning. |

| When we are no longer able to change a situation we are challenged to change ourselves. |
