Always kiss your children goodnight, even if they're already asleep. Live so that when your children think of fairness and integrity, they think of you. Marrying an old bachelor is like buying second-hand furniture. Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own. Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking. Let the refining and improving of your own life keep you so busy that you have little time to criticize others. Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more. Success is getting what you want. Happiness is liking what you get. Talent without discipline is like an octopus on roller skates. There's plenty of movement, but you never know if it's going to be forward, backwards, or sideways. Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures. |
