To keep our faces toward chance and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.

Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.

The bulk of the world's knowledge is an imaginary construction.

What a blind person needs is not a teacher but another self.

While the right friends are near us, we feel that all is well. Our everyday life blossoms suddenly into bright possibilities.

I learned that it is possible for us to create light, sound and order within us no matter what calamity befall us in the outer world.

Worse than being blind would be to be able to see but not have any vision.

True friends never apart maybe in distance but never in heart

What induces a child to learn but his delight in knowing?

The welfare of each is bound up in the welfare of all.

Doubts and mistrust are the mere panic of timid imagination, which the steadfast heart will conquer, and the large mind transcend.

A smile goes a long way, but you must first start it on its journey.

The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful if there were no dark valleys to traverse.

The attempt to suppress an idea has always and everywhere proved a failure.

So long as you can sweeten another's pain, life is not in vain.

Few pleasures there are indeed without an aftertouch of pain, but that is the preservation which keeps them sweet.

People often ... have no idea how fair the flower is to the touch, nor do they appreciate its fragrance, which is the soul of the flower.

A simple, childlike faith in a Divine Friend solves all the problems that come to us by land or sea

We must not creep along when our souls cry out for us to soar!
