Words are mere bubbles of water, but deeds are  drops of gold.
       Chinese  proverb

Success means we go to sleep at night knowing that  our talents and
abilities
were used in a way that served others.
       Marianne  Williamson

We tire of those pleasures we take, but never of  those we give.
        John  Petit-Senn

To do the useful thing, to say the courageous  thing, to contemplate the
beautiful thing; that is enough for one man's  life.
       T.S.  Eliot

If you judge people, you have not time to love  them.
    Mother Teresa

We are what we repeatedly do.  Excellence,  then is not an act, but a habit.
    Aristotle

Though we travel the world over to find the  beautiful, we must carry it
with
us or we will not find it.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson

Happiness and love are just a choice  away.
    Leo Buscaglia

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's  courage.
    Anais Nin
