Change has a considerable psychological impact on the human mind. To the fearful it is threatening because it means that things may get worse. To the hopeful it is encouraging because things may get better. To the confident it is inspiring because the challenge exists to make things better.

The great use of life is to spend it on something that will outlast it.

One friend in a lifetime is much; two are many; three are hardly possible.

The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want.
