“If you don't like something, change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it. ”

“What you're supposed to do when you don't like a thing is change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it. Don't complain.”

“Instead of agonizing about the things you can't change, why don't you try working on the things you can change”

“There were people who went to sleep last night, poor and rich and white and black, but they will never wake again. And those dead folks would give anything at all for just five minutes of this weather or ten minutes of plowing. So you watch yourself about complaining. What you're supposed to do when you don't like a thing is change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it.”

“If you don't like the way the world is, you change it. You have an obligation to change it. You just do it one step at a time.”

“I don't hate it. It does no good to hate something you can't change.”
