Let the first act of every morning be to make the following resolve for the day:
- I shall not fear anyone on Earth.
- I shall fear only God.
- I shall not bear ill will toward anyone.
- I shall not submit to injustice from anyone.
- I shall conquer untruth by truth. And in resisting untruth, I shall put up with all suffering.

It's the action, not the fruit of the action, that's important. You have to do the right thing. It may not be in your power, may not be in your time, that there'll be any fruit. But that doesn't mean you stop doing the right thing. You may never know what results come from your action. But if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mahatma Gandhi

I want to live my life in such a way that when I get out of bed in the morning, the devil says, "aw shit, he's up!

Good people see the good and bring out the best in other people.
Roy T. Bennett

Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.
