·         “God does not command that we do great things, only little things with great love.”
-Mother Teresa

• ·         "Love, unselfishness, must undergo a constant and living readaptative interpretation of relationships in accordance with the leading of the Spirit of Truth. Love must thereby grasp the ever-changing and enlarging concepts of the highest cosmic good of the individual who is loved."
  ·         "I have many other sheep not of this fold, and these words are true not only of this world. These other sheep also hear and know my voice, and I have promised the Father that they shall all be brought into one fold, one brotherhood of
  the sons of God."
  ·         Neither a lofty degree of intelligence, nor imagination, nor both together, go to the making of genius. Love, Love, Love. That is the soul of genius. — Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
  ·         Discovery is seeing what everybody else has seen, and thinking what nobody else has thought. — Dr. Albert Szent-Gyorgyi
  ·         Keep your fears to yourself; share your courage with others. – Robert Louis Stevenson
  ·         The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that perseverance means a strong will and obstinacy means a strong won’t. – Lord Dundee

  ·         Believers must increasingly learn how to step aside from the rush of life-escape the harassments of material existence-while they refresh the soul, inspire the mind, and renew the spirit by worshipful communion.
  ·         My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style. — Maya Angelou
  ·         The eternal present is the space within which your whole life unfolds, the one factor that remains constant. - Eckhart Tolle
  ·         “What greater thing is there for human souls than to feel that they are joined for life – to be with each other in silent unspeakable memories.” – George Eliot
  ·         The presence of a great Thought Adjuster does not bestow ease of living and freedom from strenuous thinking, but such a divine gift should confer a sublime peace of mind and a superb tranquillity of spirit.
  ·         “It is not what you do for your children, but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful human beings.” - Ann Landers
  ·         Find life experiences and swallow them whole. Travel. Meet many people. Go down some dead ends and explore dark alleys. Try everything. Exhaust yourself in the glorious pursuit of life. — Lawrence K. Fish
  ·         Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. — Alfred D. Souza
