Personal power is the ability to stand on your own two feet with a smile on your face in the middle of a universe that contains a million ways to crush you.

One thing I can guarantee, is that the world will never change itself because of our weaknesses. In fact, it has ways of actually becoming more dangerous when we approach it with a bad attitude.

I come from a place where everyone has great power, by your standards, and they steadfastly refuse to use it for self-aggrandizement ... anywhere ... ever.

Remember, NO ONE has the right to control your emotions, thoughts, and actions, unless you let them.

Never Underestimate the Power of a Person

To love yourself completely, in spite of all your faults and foibles, is THE work. For only when you love yourself can you truly love another.
