We should know that nothing 
in the world comes easily. 
How can we expect a reward 
when we haven’t put in the work?

Better a diamond with a flaw, 
          than a pebble without flaws.

Patience means:

If people scold me, I can bear it.
If they hit me, I can take it.
No matter how badly they treat me,
I can endure it.

The secret of attraction is to love yourself.
Attractive people judge neither themselves
nor others.  They are open to gestures of
love. 
They think about love, and
express their love in every action.
They know that love is not a mere
sentiment, but the ultimate truth
at the heart of the universe.


—Deepak Chopra

Virtue means having a good conscience and not being ashamed before Heaven or people because one has neither deceived others nor cheated oneself.
