The most important thing in life is to always do good. If you can't do great deeds for people, at least try to do something small.
Luke (Voyno-Yasenetsky)
There are few people with whom you can sit and bare your soul. Take care of them!
To have beautiful lips, speak only kind words. To have beautiful eyes, seek only the good in people. To have a slender figure, share food with the hungry. A woman's beauty is not in the clothes she wears, the figure she carries, or the hairstyle she has. A woman's beauty should be seen in her eyes, the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. A woman's true beauty is reflected in her soul. A woman's beauty is evident in her care and love. A woman's beauty grows as the years go by...
If you wished to be loved, love.
Seneca
You are what you do, not what you say you'll do.
Carl Jung
Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.
Seneca
