Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect. —Chief Seattle

Men succeed when they realize that their failures are the preparation for their victories. #<Author:0x00007f744e9724c0>
PREPARATION
It is a mistake to think that the practice of my art has become easy to me. I assure you, dear friend, no one has given so much care to the study of composition as I. There is scarcely a famous master in music whose works I have not frequently and diligently studied. #<Author:0x00007f744e996eb0>
PRACTICE

OPTIMISM

PRACTICE
Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice. It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. #<Author:0x00007f744ea1d078>
ACHIEVEMENT
Happiness is a journey, not a destination. For a long time it seemed to me that life was about to begin—real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life. This perspective has helped me to see there is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way. So treasure every moment you have and remember that time waits for no one. #<Author:0x00007f744ea431d8>

CHARACTER
Fear grows out of the things we think; it lives in our minds. Compassion grows out of the things we are, and lives in our hearts. #<Author:0x00007f744eb368d8>
COMPASSION
If you feel like there’s something out there that you’re supposed to be doing, if you have a passion for it, then stop wishing and just do it. #<Author:0x00007f744eb56430>
