When night comes do not despair; rejoice instead and say to yourself, “At least now I can see the stars.
Never allow yourself to be defined by your past; ‘yesterday’ is just a word, not a dictionary.
When your past tries to haunt you tell it you don’t believe in ghosts.
It is in the roots, not the branches, that a tree’s greatest strength lies.
Just because everyone is behaving like a clown, it doesn’t mean you have to join the circus.
When you put on your thinking cap make sure it’s clean.
If you have never walked a mile in someone’s shoes, do not mock the soars on his feet.
