Quotes
It is the way we react to circumstances that determines our feelings.
Many people think that if they were only in some other place, or had some other job, they would be happy. Well, that is doubtful. So get as much happiness out of what you are doing as you can and don't put off being happy until some future date.
When dealing with people, let us remember we are not dealing with creatures of logic. We are dealing with creatures of emotion, creatures bustling with prejudices and motivated by pride and vanity.
You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you.
Forget yourself; do things for others.
Cooperate with the inevitable.
