The stillness in stillness is not the real stillness; only when there is stillness in movement does the universal rhythm manifest.

Discard all thoughts of reward, all hopes of praise and fears of blame, all awareness of one’s bodily. And, finally closing the avenues of sense perception, let the spirit out, as it will.

Live content with small means; seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion. Be worthy, not respectable, wealthy, not rich; study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. In a word, let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.

Stupidity assumes two forms, it speaks or is silent. Mute stupidity is bearable.

Unquestionably man has his will – but woman has her way!

To be humble to superiors is duty; to equals is courtesy; to inferiors is nobleness; and to all, safety!

If I tell you I’m good, probably you will say I’m boasting. But if I tell you I’m not good, you’ll know I’m lying.

If you make an ass out of yourself, there’ll always be someone ready to ride you.

Do not hold to what you have. It is like a ferry boat for people who want to get across waters. Once you have got across, never bear it on your back. You should head forward.

If you don’t aim at an object, how the heck on earth do you think you can get it?

The greatest source of happiness is the ability to be grateful at all times

You will get all you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want.

You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.

If you are not willing to learn no one can help you. If you are determined to learn no one can stop you.

People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing, that’s why we recommend it daily

Success comes when opportunity meets preparation

Never blame anyone in your life. Good people give you happiness. Bad people give you experience. Worst people give you a lesson. And the best people give you memories.

Moving from survival to stability, from stability to success, from success to significance.

Be helpful. When you see a person without a smile, give them yours.

You never know when a moment and a few sincere words can have an impact on a life.

The greatest of all mistakes is to do nothing because you think you can only do a little

How you see the future is much more important than what happened in your past.

Where you start is not as important as where you finish.

Money isn’t the most important thing in life, but it’s reasonably close to oxygen on the ‘gotta have it’ scale.

Hope is the power that gives a person the confidence to step out and try

We cannot start over, but we can begin now and make a new ending.

Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will

Make failure your teacher, not your undertaker.

Expect the best. Prepare for the worst. Capitalize on what comes

Motivation is the fuel necessary to keep the human engine running.

Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment

Put all excuses aside and remember this: You are capable

You can start where you are with what you’ve got and go to wherever it is you want to go

If you don’t see yourself as a winner, then you cannot perform as a winner.

A goal properly set is halfway reached

Don’t let someone who gave up on their dreams talk you out of going after yours.

The greatest cause of a poor image is the absence of unconditional love.

Try to look at your weakness and convert it into your strength.

There is little you can learn from doing nothing.

The great majority of people are wandering generalities rather than meaningful specifics. The fact is that you can’t hit a target that you can’t see. If you don’t know where you are going, you will probably end up somewhere else. You have to have goals

You already have every characteristic necessary for success if you recognize, claim, develop and use them.

You are what you are and you are where you are because of what has gone into your mind. You change what you are and you change where you are by changing what goes into your mind

When you encourage others, you in the process are encouraged because you’re making a commitment and difference in that person’s life. Encouragement really does make a difference.

Don’t let mistakes and disappointments of the past control and direct your future

Take time to be kind and to say thank you

You are the only person on earyh who can use your ability

When obstacles arise, you change your direction to reach your goal; you do not change your decision to get there.

Getting up and moving forward is a choice.

Lack of direction not lack of time is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days.

Happiness is the ability to move forward knowing the future will be better than the past.
