The greatest step toward a life of simplicity is to learn to let go.

Set peace of mind as your highest goal, and organize your life around it.

If you can’t forgive and forget, pick one.

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.

Sometimes the wrong choices bring us to the right places.

Action is the antidote to despair.

Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.

Every problem has a gift for you in its hands.

The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keep out the joy.

Life’s blows cannot break a person whose spirit is warmed by the fire of enthusiasm.

What is the meaning of life? To be happy and useful.

Fear is faith that it won’t work out.

Letting go gives us freedom and freedom is the only condition for happiness.

You must love in such a way that the person you love feels free.

Better to do something imperfectly than to do nothing flawlessly.

If your number one goal is to make sure that everyone likes and approves of you, then you risk sacrificing your uniqueness, and, therefore, your excellence.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.

You must welcome change as the rule but not your ruler.

I don’t believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive.

Don’t worry about what the world needs.  Ask what makes you come alive and do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
