“Life is worthwhile in itself”

“Adventure is worthwhile in itself.”

“Adventure is worthwhile.”

“No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. Good example is followed. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves.”

“Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace.”

“The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life; and the procedure, the process is its own reward.”

“Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.”
