"You should love yourself to an extent where you can't let anyone take advantage of you, no matter who they are."
"If you have legs that work, walk in the right direction. If you have an audible voice, say constructive words. If you have functional eyes, see great things. If you are in a position of power, use it productively and if you have a sound mind, think exceptionally; for such is not a given, but grace."
"We live in a world where people are so busy trying to find someone that's "good enough" for them, that they have failed to stop and ask themselves if they are in fact good enough for other people! This is the result of a feeling of false entitlement that has been instilled in the minds of people today. "Everyone" deserves "the best" from the "Universe" however, nobody is teaching anybody to stop and try to become the best for their own selves and for other people. When everybody thinks they are the best, everybody falls short of the best that they can actually be."

A pastor who does not teach or pray for people, a football player always playing pool, a body builder who doesn't eat but sleeps all day, a student who studies only towards examinations, a politician without a cause and a business without a customer service culture all have one thing in common " sooner or later they will all become irrelevant. Never miss the chance to practice the call of your mission, even if you are not getting paid for it."
"You don't have to be better than everyone in order to grow and achieve success, but you must continuously strive to become better than the person you were yesterday."
"It is better to find your own faults and rectify them than to find thousands of faults in others."
"We no longer have any time to waste, entertaining our dark side. It is time we recognize those evil elements of our internal world and start working untiringly on eradicating them."
"Be yourself, free being."

"To begin with, I turn back time. I reverse it to that quaint period, the thirties, when the huge middle class of America was matriculating in a school for the blind.
