few things I have learned in life - the hard way...
it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.
no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.
it’s not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts.
you can get on by talking for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better know something.
you shouldn’t compare yourself to the best others can do.
you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
either you control your attitude or it controls you.
heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down will be the ones to help you get back up.
sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel or insensitive.
maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated.
you should never tell a child their dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be if they believed it.
no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn’t stop for your grief.
our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
a rich person is not the one who has the most, but is one who needs the least.
even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.
people will forget what you said, and people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.
