Echoes

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

It is better to be alone than in bad company.

The quality I look for most is optimism: especially optimism in the face of reverses and apparent defeat.

Keep your face always toward the sunshine — and shadows will fall behind you.

Optimism is true moral courage.

The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement; nothing can be done without hope.

While I breathe, I hope.

All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.

Write it on your heart that every day is the best day in the year.

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.

Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.

They can, because they think they can.

Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind.

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.

I have learned that to be with those I like is enough.

You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop.

You need a change of soul rather than a change of climate.

Everything in the universe is within you. Ask all from yourself.

A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes.

Difficulties are just things to overcome, after all.

If in our daily life we can smile, if we can be peaceful and happy, not only we, but everyone will profit from it. If we really know how to live, what better way to start the day than with a smile? Our smile affirms our awareness and determination to live in peace and joy. The source of a true smile is an awakened mind.
