Booker T. Washington
Try not to become a man of success, but rather try to become a man of value.

Forgiveness
Forgiveness is the economy of the heart... forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred, the waste of spirits.

John F. Kennedy
You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish them well.

To be idle is a short road to death and to be diligent is a way of life; foolish people are idle, wise people are diligent.
Buddha
What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal.
Albert Pike
While I thought that I was learning how to live, I have been learning how to die.
Leonardo da Vinci
Wisdom
He who devotes sixteen hours a day to hard study may become at sixty as wise as he thought himself at twenty.
Mary Wilson Little
The older I grow the more I distrust the familiar doctrine that age brings wisdom.
H.L. Mencken
Wisdom is the reward you get for a lifetime of listening when you'd have preferred to talk.
Doug Larson
Friendship
I value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but I cherish the friend who for me does not consult his calendar.
Robert Brault
In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
Albert Schweitzer

Kahil Gibral
Nature
A few minutes ago every tree was excited, bowing to the roaring storm, waving, swirling, tossing their branches in glorious enthusiasm like worship. But though to the outer ear these trees are now silent, their songs never cease.
John Muir
If a man walks in the woods for love of them half of each day, he is in danger of being regarded as a loafer. But if he spends his days as a speculator, shearing off those woods and making the earth bald before her time, he is deemed an industrious and enterprising citizen.
Henry David Thoreau
One of the most tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.
Dale Carnegie
Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.
John Ruskin
