“The best thing you can do to improve the world, is to improve yourself.”
Politicians are not the source for all answers.
“To laugh often and much,
to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children,
to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends,
to appreciate beauty,
to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.”
And If you get tired, learn to rest, not to quit.
“In order for the self to succeed in life, two means of improvement were developed, education and physical activity. Not separately, one for the soul and the other for the body, but for the two together. With these two means, the self can peruse perfection and attain self-actualization.”
Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.
