Compassion is a muscle that gets stronger with use.

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.

Abraham Lincoln

We are still masters of our fate. We are still captains of our souls.

Winston Churchill

Common sense is something that everyone needs, few have, and none think they lack.

Benjamin Franklin

Pain is physical; suffering is mental. Beyond the mind there is no suffering. Pain is essential for the survival of the body, but none compels you to suffer. Suffering is due entirely to clinging or resisting; it is a sign of our unwillingness to move on, to flow with life.

Nisargadatta Maharaj

Be a lamp for yourselves. Be your own refuge. Seek for no other. All things must pass. Strive on diligently. Don't give up.
