Kindness and a generous spirit go a long way. And a sense of humor. It's like medicine - very healing.
Max Irons
Transparency, honesty, kindness, good stewardship, even humor, work in businesses at all times.
John Gerzema
Loving oneself isn't hard, when you understand who and what 'yourself' is. It has nothing to do with the shape of your face, the size of your eyes, the length of your hair or the quality of your clothes. It's so beyond all of those things and it's what gives life to everything about you. Your own self is such a treasure.
Phylicia Rashad
It is hard enough to remember my opinions, without also remembering my reasons for them!
Friedrich Nietzsche
The secret is not to give up hope. It's very hard not to because if you're really doing something worthwhile I think you will be pushed to the brink of hopelessness before you come through the other side.
George Lucas
If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.
Oscar Wilde
Art saved me; it got me through my depression and self-loathing, back to a place of innocence.
Jeanette Winterson
I learned this, at least, by my experiment: that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.
Henry David Thoreau
To me, it's always been a challenge to look for the light: to look for those spaces in your heart where there is hope and faith and try to embrace that rather than crush it. I've spent so many years trying to crush those feelings of hope, and I certainly succeeded for quite a while.
Dave Gahan
I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man.
George Washington
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
Steve Jobs
