Life is sorrow, overcome it.
Life is a song, sing it.

“If you judge people, you have no time to love them.”
“People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.”
“Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.”
“I know God won't give me anything I can't handle. I just wish he didn't trust me so much.”
“Peace begins with a smile..”
“I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.”
“I am not sure exactly what heaven will be like, but I know that when we die and it comes time for God to judge us, he will not ask, 'How many good things have you done in your life?' rather he will ask, 'How much love did you put into what you did?”
“Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”
“Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”
“Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”
“The hunger for love is much more difficult to remove than the hunger for bread.”
“Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living ｅxpression of God's kindness: kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile.”
“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
“Live simply so others may simply live.”
“It's not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.”
“Never travel faster than your guardian angel can fly.”
“God doesn't require us to succeed, he only requires that you try.”
“At the end of life we will not be judged by how many diplomas we have received, how much money we have made, how many great things we have done.
We will be judged by "I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat, I was naked and you clothed me. I was homeless, and you took me in.”
“What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family.”
“The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.”
“I'm a little pencil in the hand of a writing God, who is sending a love letter to the world.”
“I alone cannot change the world, but I can cast a stone across the waters to create many ripples.”
“If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives; be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies; succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you; be honest and frank anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow; do good anyway…
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway.”
“A life not lived for others is not a life.”
“May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us." ...”
“If you are humble nothing will touch you, neither praise nor disgrace, because you know what you are.”
“We know only too well that what we are doing is nothing more than a drop in the ocean. But if the drop were not there, the ocean would be missing something.”
“Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal.”
“I can do things you cannot, you can do things I cannot; together we can do great things.”
“Prayer is not asking. Prayer is putting oneself in the hands of God, at His disposition, and listening to His voice in the depth of our hearts.”
“If you can't feed a hundred people, feed just one.”
“Let nothing perturb you, nothing frighten you. All things pass. God does not change. Patience achieves everything.”
“The greatest disease in the West today is not TB or leprosy; it is being unwanted, unloved, and uncared for. We can cure physical diseases with medicine, but the only cure for loneliness, despair, and hopelessness is love. There are many in the world who are dying for a piece of bread but there are many more dying for a little love. The poverty in the West is a different kind of poverty -- it is not only a poverty of loneliness but also of spirituality. There's a hunger for love, as there is a hunger for God.”
“Love to be real, it must cost—it must hurt—it must empty us of self.”
“God made the world for the delight of human beings-- if we could see His goodness everywhere, His concern for us, His awareness of our needs: the phone call we've waited for, the ride we are offered, the letter in the mail, just the little things He does for us throughout the day. As we remember and notice His love for us, we just begin to fall in love with Him because He is so busy with us -- you just can't resist Him. I believe there's no such thing as luck in life, it's God's love, it's His.”
“The person who gives with a smile is the best giver because God loves a cheerful giver.”
“If we pray, we will believe; If we believe, we will love; If we love, we will serve.”
“Spread the love of God through your life but only use words when necessary.”
“Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.”
“Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.”
“Never worry about numbers. Help one person at a time and always start with the person nearest you.”
“People are unrealistic, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.”
“Without patience, we will learn less in life. We will see less. We will feel less. We will hear less. Ironically, rush and more usually mean less.”
“Prayer in action is love, love in action is service.”
“When you don't have anything, then you have everything.”
“Each one of them is Jesus in disguise.”
“I pray that you will understand the words of Jesus, “Love one another as I have loved you.” Ask yourself “How has he loved me? Do I really love others in the same way?” Unless this love is among us, we can kill ourselves with work and it will only be work, not love. Work without love is slavery.”
“Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies.”
“Life is a game, play it.”
“I would rather make mistakes in kindness and compassion than work miracles in unkindness and hardness.”
“In the West we have a tendency to be profit-oriented, where everything is measured according to the results and we get caught up in being more and more active to generate results. In the East -- especially in India -- I find that people are more content to just be, to just sit around under a banyan tree for half a day chatting to each other. We Westerners would probably call that wasting time. But there is value to it. Being with someone, listening wihtout a clock and without anticipation of results, teaches us about love. The success of love is in the loving -- it is not in the result of loving. ”
“I do not pray for success, I ask for faithfulness.”
“Let us make one point, that we meet each other with a smile, when it is difficult to smile. Smile at each other, make time for each other in your family.”
“The Simple Path
Silence is Prayer
Prayer is Faith
Faith is Love
Love is Service
The Fruit of Service is Peace”
“Joy is a net of love in which you can catch souls.”
“The so-called right to abortion has pitted mothers against their children and women against men. It has sown violence and discord at the heart of the most intimate human relationships. It has aggravated the derogation of the father's role in an increasingly fatherless society. It has portrayed the greatest of gifts--a child--as a competitor, an intrusion and an inconvenience. It has nominally accorded mothers unfettered dominion over the dependent lives of their physically dependent sons and daughters. And, in granting this unconscionable power, it has exposed many women to unjust and selfish demands from their husbands or other sexual partners.”
“How can there be too many children? That is like saying there are too many flowers.”
“Love is a fruit in season at all times and within reach of every hand.”
“Love begins by taking care of the closest ones - the ones at home.”
“The greatest science in the world; in heaven and on earth; is love.”
“To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.”
