Optimism

Difficulties are meant to rouse, not discourage. The human spirit is to grow strong by conflict

And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow

How beautiful is youth! how bright it gleams with its illusions, aspirations, dreams! Book of beginnings, story without end, each maid a heroine, and each man a friend!

For every 60 seconds of anger, you lose one minute of happiness

To me - old age is always ten years older than I am

The right time is any time that one is still so lucky as to have.

Acceptance of what has happened is the first step to overcoming the consequences of any misfortune.

Pessimism leads to weakness, optimism to power.

Great emergencies and crises show us how much greater our vital resources are than we had supposed.
