Expect people to be better than they are; it helps them to become better. But don't be disappointed when they are not; it helps them to keep trying.
The elegance of honesty needs no adornment.
You know you're old when you've lost all your marvels.
Preconceived notions are the locks on the door to wisdom.
If you want an accounting of your worth, count your friends.
Status symbols are poor excuses for values.
Karma is the universal law of cause and effect. You reap what you sow. You get what you earn. You are what you eat. If you give love, you get love. Revenge returns itself upon the avenger.
You know you are old when you've lost your marvels.
