Lessons In Every Situation

"Optimists seek benefit and lessons in every situation, especially from setbacks or problems. They don't let negative emotions distract them from the task at hand, continuing to focus on the big picture and communication the confidence that they can make it."

-- Ian Pollard


"This is the miracle that happens every time to those who really love; the more they give, the more they possess."

-- Rainer Maria Rilke


"No amount of good deeds can make us good persons. We must be good before we can do good."

-- Chester A. Pennington


"Character isn't inherited. One builds it daily by the way one thinks and acts, thought by thought, action by action. If one lets fear or hate or anger take possession of the mind, they become self-forged chains."

-- Helen Douglas
