No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don’t.
Life can be much broader. You can embrace it, change it, improve it, make your mark upon it.
My favorite things in life don’t cost any money. It’s really clear that the most precious resource we all have is time.
You’re already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.
Go on bravely. Do not expect success in a day or a year. Always hold on to the highest. Be steady. Avoid jealousy and selfishness. Be obedient and eternally faithful to the cause of truth, humanity, and your country, and you will move the world.
Strength is life, Weakness is death.
Take up an idea, devote yourself to it, struggle on in patience, and the sun will rise for you.
If you are willing to do only what’s easy, life will be hard. But if you are willing to do what’s hard, life will be easy.
Life is meaningful only if you give it a meaning.
Every moment is a fresh beginning.
I wish to preach, not the doctrine of ignoble ease, but the doctrine of the strenuous life.
The value of an idea lies in the using of it.
Every breath we draw is a gift of God’s love; every moment of existence is a grace.
These are the times that try men’s souls.
Jesus Christ did not suffer so that you would not suffer. He suffered so that when you suffer, you’ll become more like him. The gospel does not promise you better life circumstances; it promises you a better life.
We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives.
The real joy in life comes from finding your true purpose and aligning it with what you do every single day.
It’s not about the goal. It’s about growing to become the person that can accomplish that goal.
Where focus goes, energy flows. And if you don’t take the time to focus on what matters, then you’re living a life of someone else’s design.
We always have a choice.
