...there are no secrets unless you keep them to yourself, and this was the greatest secret I had ever had to keep in my life so far.

Roald Dahl

On your worst days do not look in the mirror and call yourself pretty. Call yourself trying, call yourself surviving, call yourself learning how to get through a day, a week, a month or year. Call yourself still learning.

Meggie Royer

Tell no one the secret that you want to keep, although he may be worthy of confidence; for no one will be so careful of your secret as yourself.

Saadi

The secret to life is meaningless unless you discover it yourself.

W. Somerset Maugham

If you wish another to keep your secret, first keep it to yourself.

Seneca the Younger

Remember that no one can hurt you except yourself. If someone does a mean thing to you, that person is hurt. You are not really hurt unless you become embittered, or unless you become angry and perhaps do a mean thing in return.

Peace Pilgrim

You are never stuck, unless you are choosing to stay there. You are never limited, unless you choose to limit yourself. You are never less than, unless you choose to see yourself this way. You will never fail, unless you choose failure as an option. You are powerful beyond belief!

Jennifer O'Neill

Keep this little canvas, it is a promise for the future. When I say 'keep this canvas,' I mean for the influence on yourself. When one does a good thing, it's well to keep it to show how foolish we are at other times.

Charles Webster Hawthorne

When someone shows you how little you mean to them and you keep coming back for more, before you know it you start to mean less to yourself.

Lena Dunham

If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself.

George Orwell

My ancestors had to keep their customs secret for fear of death or persecution, so it's common to be secretive and discreet about Regla de Ocha. But it's my family's spirituality, so I don't want to keep it secret.

Princess Nokia
