If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change your attitude.

You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. Please remember that your difficulties do not define you. They simply strengthen your ability to overcome.

i can be changed by what happens to me. but i refuse to be reduced by it.

You may write me down in historyWith your bitter, twisted lies,You may trod me in the very dirtBut still, like dust, I'll rise.

Never whine. Whining lets a brute know that a victim is in the neighborhood.

It is only out of ignorance that people are cruel, because they really don’t think it will come back.
