“Live by looking for things to do for other people.”

“To make a resolution and act accordingly is to live with hope. There may be difficulties and hardships, but not disappointment or despair if you follow the path steadily. Do not hurry. This is a fundamental rule. If you hurry and collapse or tumble down, nothing is achieved. DO not rest in your efforts; this is another fundamental rule. Without stopping, without haste, carefully taking a step at a time forward will surely get you there.”

“Anything you think of doing, however insignificant, should be done immediately. Spur yourself on and carry it through without becoming discouraged. If this becomes an ingrained habit, things you thought were impossible will become possible, and closed doors will open, as you will discover in many ways.”

“I cannot live without children.”

“What is man's ultimate direction in life? It is to look for love, truth, virtue, and beauty”

“To deceive oneself is worse than to deceive others." These harsh words pierced me to the core.”

“It is in our power to educate all the children of the world to become a little better as people, a little happier.”
