Overcoming Failure
A shy failure is nobler than an immodest success.
Love
And think not you can guide the course of love. For love, if it finds you worthy, shall guide your course.
Love
If you love somebody, let them go, for if they return, they were always yours. And if they don't, they never were.
Success
Keep me away from the wisdom which does not cry, the philosophy which does not laugh and the greatness which does not bow before children.
Life
Life without love is like a tree without blossoms or fruit.
Love
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed; for love is sufficient unto love.
Insight
Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in advancing toward what will be.
Optimism
The optimist sees the rose and not its thorns; the pessimist stares at the thorns, oblivious of the rose.
Life
Work is love made visible. And if you cannot work with love but only with distaste it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of those who work with joy.
Success
Work is love made visible. And if you can't work with love but only with distaste, it is better that you should leave your work and sit at the gate of the temple and take alms of the people who work with joy.
