women should be tough, tender, laugh as much as possible and live long lives |
Words mean more than what is set down on paper. It takes the human voice to infuse them with shades of deeper meaning. |
You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don't make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you. |
You can't be consistently fair, consistently generous, consistently just, or consistently merciful. You can be anything erratically, but to be that thing time after time after time, you have to have courage. |
You did then what you knew how to do, And when you knew better, You did better. |
You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it. |
You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. Please remember that your difficulties do not define you. They simply strengthen your ability to overcome. |
You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may trod me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I'll rise. |
You rose into my life like a promised sunrise, brightening my days with the light in your eyes. I've never been so strong. Now I'm where I belong. |
