VOLUNTEERING
The wise do not buy into other people’s perceptions of who they are and what they are capable of. Instead, they bypass a person’s public persona and see who they are in their highest expression. When you see actions taken with integrity, instead of words only, you will then know a soul’s worth. #<Author:0x00007f45543b3850>
TRUE BEAUTY
Listening is where love begins: listening to ourselves and then to our neighbors. #<Author:0x00007f45543dda38>

HONESTY
It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart. #<Author:0x00007f45546ee560>
HOPE
I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift would be curiosity. #<Author:0x00007f45546e9100>
CURIOSITY

REACHING OUT

ACHIEVEMENT
Forget yesterday - it has already forgotten you. Don't sweat tomorrow - you haven't even met. Instead, open your eyes and your heart to a truly precious gift - today. #<Author:0x00007f45546f5f18>
APPRECIATION
For a seed to achieve its greatest expression, it must come completely undone. The shell cracks, its insides come out and everything changes. To someone who doesn't understand growth, it would look like complete destruction. #<Author:0x00007f45546f23b8>
OVERCOMING
True education does not consist merely in the acquiring of a few facts of science, history, literature, or art, but in the development of character. #<Author:0x00007f455470ea68>
