- Let your enthusiasm radiate in your voice,
your actions, your facial expressions,

or else... begin to march us steadily backward.
- The joys we expect are not so bright,

- If someone is too tired to give you a smile,
leave one of your own, because no one
needs a smile as much as those who have none to give.

is a blessing. They believe, rather, that the
great virtue of man lies in his ability to correct
his mistakes and continually make a new man of himself.
- Shoot for the moon.
Even if you miss, you'll land among the stars.
