The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service.
The consuming desire of most human beings is deliberately to plant their whole life in the hands of some other person. I would describe this method of searching for happiness as immature. Development of character consists solely in moving toward self-sufficiency.
Good character consists of recognizing the selfishness that inheres in each of us and trying to balance it against the altruism to which we should all aspire. It is a difficult balance to strike, but no definition of goodness can be complete without it.
Faith consists in believing when it is beyond the power of reason to believe.
Our entire life - consists ultimately in accepting ourselves as we are.
The art of medicine consists in amusing the patient while nature cures the disease.
Love consists in giving without getting in return; in giving what is not owed, what is not due the other. That's why true love is never based, as associations for utility or pleasure are, on a fair exchange.
The joy of life consists in the exercise of one's energies, continual growth, constant change, the enjoyment of every new experience. To stop means simply to die. The eternal mistake of mankind is to set up an attainable ideal.
Good leadership consists of showing average people how to do the work of superior people.
