Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits they become character;
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

The secret of success is to know something nobody else knows.
Aristotle Onassis

Success is the ability to go from one failure to another with no loss of enthusiasm.
Winston Churchill
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.
William Shakespeare
Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead. The consciousness of loving and being loved brings a warmth and richness to life that nothing else can bring.
Oscar Wilde
Sex is a relatively recent addition to the dance of life. For more than 2,000,000,000 years, asexual reproduction was the rule. You know, if you were a creature, you just separated into two clones.
Mark Jerome Walters

Mind Power
Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a polluted mind, suffering will follow you, as the wheels of the oxcart follow the footsteps of the ox. Everything is based on mind, is led by mind, is fashioned by mind. If you speak and act with a pure mind, happiness will follow you, as a shadow clings to a form.
BUDDHA

– Theodore Roosevelt
