Every human need these quotes, including you and me...

here is few more.., just reading these quotes is not enough, implementation plays the main role... If we can... means we won...

Anger is the enemy of nonviolence and pride is a monster that swallows it up.

 

“Etiquette is behaving yourself a little better than is absolutely essential.”
 

“Good manners and soft words have brought many a difficult thing to pass”


“The hardest job kids face today is learning good manners without seeing any.”
 

“When a man points a finger at someone else, he should remember that four of his fingers are pointing at himself.”
 

 
There cannot be greater rudeness than to interrupt another in the current of his discourse.
John Locke
 


 

 

Love

 

“Love has the power to drive pleasure from mistakes, discords & failures. As a Mother’s love overflows at the false step of the child whom she is teaching to walk. Love dose not ask anything beyond itself. It is a fulfillment and the end in itself.”

 

Hope

 

“Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all”

 

Optimism

 

"Cultivate optimism by committing yourself to a cause, a plan or a value system. You'll feel that you are growing in a meaningful direction which will help you rise above day-to-day setbacks."

 

Help

 

"When you become detached mentally from yourself and concentrate on helping other people with their difficulties, you will be able to cope with your own more effectively. Somehow, the act of self-giving is a personal power-releasing factor."

 

Humanity

 

"Strange is our situation here upon earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that man is here for the sake of other men."

 

Passion

 

"There is no greatness without a passion to be great, whether it's the aspiration of an athlete or an artist, a scientist, a parent, or a businessperson. So Chase your passion, not your pension."

 

Regards

Ankur
