1. How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.

3. Think of all the beauty still left around you and be happy.
4. I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn.

6. No one has ever become poor by giving.
7. I don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.
8. Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a person’s character lies in their own hands.
