A thought which does not result in an action
is nothing much,
and an action which does not proceed from a thought is nothing at
all.
Georges Bernanos
The real measure of your wealth
is how much you'd be worth
if you lost all your money.

before your head has figured it out.
Michael Burke
Trials, temptations, disappointments –
all these are helps instead of hindrances,
if one uses them rightly.
They not only test the fiber of character
but strengthen it.
Every conquering temptation
represents a new fund of moral energy.
Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit
makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before.
James Buckham
The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity.
The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.
Winston Churchill
Someone told me that blind people need to realize
their limitations;
but I think it's more exciting to realize my potential.

This is the blind fellow who climbed El Capitan...
the 3000 foot sheer rock face in Yosemite.
All of us have bad luck and good luck.
The man who persists through the bad luck –
who keeps right on going –
is the man who is there when the good luck comes –
and is ready to receive it.
Robert Collier
Everyone has talent.
What is rare is the courage to follow the talent
to the dark place where it leads.

to see the holiness in everyday life,
something magical happens:
ordinary life becomes extraordinary,
and the very process of life begins to nourish your soul!"

"Research is to see what everybody else
has seen,
and to think what nobody else has thought."
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
Giving people the gift of attention
is the greatest gift you can give.
What if you got money but lost sense of value.
Finally earned enough money to buy stuff that almost killed me.
Doubled value - didn't get paid. You still gain.
What you become is better than the money.
Don't become a spender - not an achiever.
Jim Rohn
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world,
the master calls a butterfly.

Our own heart,
and not other men's opinion,
forms our true honor.

To me good health is more than just exercise
and diet.
It's really a point of view and a mental attitude you have about yourself."

A man has made at least a start
on discovering the meaning of human life
when he plants shade trees
under which he knows full well he will never sit.
