If I stay negative in negative energy, that's what's gonna come back.
To live we must conquer incessantly, we must have the courage to be happy.
When one's expectations are reduced to zero, one really appreciates everything one does have.
The world will be saved by beauty.
Success isn't permanent and failure isn't fatal.
If I am happy in spite of my deprivations, if my happiness is so deep that it is a faith, so thoughtful that it becomes a philosophy of life. If, in short, I am an optimist, my testimony to the creed of optimism is worth hearing.
The sun is still there... even if clouds drift over it. Once you have experienced the reality of sunshine you may weep, but you will never feel ice about your heart again.
Life is ten percent what happens to you and ninety percent how you respond to it.
If you get up in the morning and think the future is going to be better, it is a bright day. Otherwise, it's not.
Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.
I might look successful but I've made many mistakes. People take their failures too seriously. You have to be positive and believe you will find success next time.
Not being tense but ready. Not thinking but not dreaming. Not being set but flexible. Liberation from the uneasy sense of confinement. It is being wholly and quietly alive, aware and alert, ready for whatever may come.
If at first you don't succeed, failure may be your style.
I'm going to mess up. But I'm going to get back, you know, and get after it and try to do better the next day.
Failure is a detour, not a dead-end street.
Welcome every morning with a smile. Look on the new day as another special gift from your Creator, another golden opportunity to complete what you were unable to finish yesterday.
A smile costs nothing in money, time, or effort but it is literally true that it can be of supreme importance in ones life.
If you fail doing one thing, then learn the lesson and move on and find something else.
When fate hands you a lemon, make lemonade.
Nothing can bring you peace but yourself. Nothing can bring you peace but the triumph of principles.
Whatever happens around you, don't take it personally... Nothing other people do is because of you. It is because of themselves.
When you have confidence, you can have a lot of fun. And when you have fun, you can do amazing things.
Do not indulge in dreams of having what you have not, but reckon up the chief of the blessings you do possess, and then thankfully remember how you would crave for them if they were not yours.
Man is fond of counting his troubles, but he does not count his joys. If he counted them up as he ought to, he would see that every lot has enough happiness provided for it.
One of the things I learned the hard way was that it doesn't pay to get discouraged. Keeping busy and making optimism a way of life can restore your faith in yourself.
