the honors and rewards fall to those
who show their good qualities in action.

to entertain a thought without accepting it.

The heart is always right -
if there's a question of choosing between the mind and the heart -
because mind is a creation of the society.

You have been given it by the society, not by existence.
The heart is unpolluted.
- Osho

Many societies have educated their male children
on the simple device of teaching them not to be women.

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not;
nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not;
unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education will not;
the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
- Calvin Coolidge

We are not to give credit to the many,
who say that none ought to be educated but the free;
but rather to the philosophers,
who say that the well-educated alone are free.

to know even one life has breathed easier
because you have lived,
this is to have succeeded.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

It is amazing how much you can accomplish
when it doesn't matter who gets the credit.

to be consoled as to console;

and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
- St. Francis of Assisi

Time is much too short to be
living someone else's life.

we can listen twice as much as we speak.

Pay It Forward.
Gift future generations in proportion to your gratitude.
The nature of life is that we pay forward
our biological creation and nurture.
Our parents gift us with life and nurture,
and we gift our children with life and nurture.
While this much is essential to continued human existence,
choose to take "pay it forward" farther - much farther.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Count your blessings. Once you realize
how valuable you are and how much you have going for you,

the music will play, and you will finally
be able to move forward the life that God intended
for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence.

as he who helps to perpetrate it.
He who accepts evil without protesting against it
is really cooperating with it.

Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as is cooperation with good.
- Mohandas (Mahatma) Gandhi

The moment you become miserly you are closed
to the basic phenomenon of life: expansion, sharing.
The moment you start clinging to things,
you have missed the target.
Because things are not the target,
you, your innermost being, is the target -
not a beautiful house, but a beautiful you;
not much money, but a rich you;
not many things, but an open being,
available to millions of things.
- Osho

Constant kindness can accomplish much.
As the sun makes ice melt,
kindness causes misunderstanding,
mistrust, and hostility to evaporate.

as much the ideal of man as self-sufficiency.
Man is a social being.

Which beliefs bring out the best in you?
Which beliefs hold you prisoner to yesterday
and limit your options for designing a great future?
Test your beliefs with as much objectivity
as you can bring to the subject.
Be willing to let go of those beliefs
that represent your parents' opinions,
or your communities opinions, rather than your own.
Those beliefs that withstand rigorous testing,
should become the foundation of your being -
your reason for living.
Take action on those beliefs.
