I don't think of all the misery, but of all the beauty that still remains
Whoever is happy will make others happy too.
Our opening ceremony this year is really exciting.
You can always-always-give something, even if it's a simple act of kindness! If everyone were to give in this way and didn't scrimp on kindly words, there would be much more love and justice in the world!
Everyone has inside of him a piece of good news. The good news is that you don't know how great you can be! How much you can love! What you can accomplish! And what your potential is!
Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction.
You can always give something, even if it is only kindness.

Riches can all be lost, but that happiness in your own heart can only be veiled, and it will bring you happiness again, as long as you live.
