Toni Morrison

I think beauty comes from actually knowing who you are. That's real beauty to me.

Ellen DeGeneres

When parents are too hands-on, kids fail to learn self-reliance. Instead of hovering like a helicopter parent, try submarine parenting: give kids the freedom to explore and surface if there's a distress signal.

Lose yourself wholly; and the more you lose, the more you will find.

Catherine Of Siena

Inner stillness is the key to outer strength.

One, remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Two, never give up work. Work gives you meaning and purpose and life is empty without it. Three, if you are lucky enough to find love, remember it is there and don't throw it away.

Stephen Hawking

Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.
