When we long for life without difficulty, remind us that oaks grow strong under contrary winds and diamonds are made under pressure. The greatest genius will never be worth much if he pretends to draw exclusively from his own resources. God is awake. I did all that I could. It is a blessed thing that in every age someone has had enough courage and individuality to stand by his own convictions.
Tears shed for self are tears of weakness, but tears shed for others are a sign of strength.
You will never find time for anything. You must make it. Perception is the result of mindset, learning, and decision. An open mind will allow anything to enter. A mature mind will weigh it without defense.
