Some wisdoms....
- For every minute spent organising, one hour is earned.
- Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.
- A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
- Old age is not so bad when you consider the alternatives.
- He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.
- The only good is knowledge and the only evil is ignorance.
- Pessimism never won any battle.
- Never let your sense of morals get in the way of doing what's right.
- Every generation imagines itself to be more intelligent than the one that went before it and wiser than the one that comes after it.
- Study as if you were to live forever. Live as if you were to die tomorrow.
- Tomorrow's life is too late. Live today.
- Peace, like charity, begins at home.
- Our strength grows out of our weaknesses.
- Make happy those who are near, and those who are far will come.
- Life is like a book: what matters is how good it is, not how long it is.
- A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same.
- Watch what you say - of those who say nothing, few are silent.
- Don't count every hour in the day. Make every hour in your day count.
- Your time is limited, so don't waste it by living someone else's life.
- Everyone is gifted - but some people never open their package.
- A man who does not think for himself, does not think at all.
- Selfishness is not living as one wishes to live, it is asking others to live as one wishes to live.
- The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds; the pessimist fears this is true.

- The course of true love never runs smooth.
- Education is the best provision for the journey to old age.
- The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.
- It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.
- The greatest mistake you can make in life is to be continually fearing you will make one.
- If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.
- Few things are impossible to diligence and skill. Great works are performed not by strength, but perseverance.
- If you're never scared or embarrassed or hurt, it means you never take any chances.
- Indolence is a delightful but distressing state; we must be doing something to be happy.
- Never discourage anyone who continually makes progress, no matter how slow.
- One of the greatest victories you can gain over someone is to show them politeness.
