“All of us, at some time or other, need help. Whether we’re giving or receiving help, each one of us has something valuable to bring to this world. That’s one of the things that connects us as neighbors—in our own way, each one of us is a giver and a receiver.”
“Nobody else can live the life you live.”
“Anyone who does anything to help a child in his life is a hero.”
“We speak with more than our mouths. We listen with more than our ears.”
“You are special. You’re special to me. There’s only one in this wonderful world.”
“In a way, you’ve already won in this world because you’re the only one who can be you.”
“As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has or ever will have something inside that is unique to all time. It’s our job to encourage each other to discover that uniqueness and to provide ways of developing its expression.”
“You can’t really love someone else unless you really love yourself first.”
“When we love a person, we accept him or her exactly as is: the lovely with the unlovely, the strong with the fearful, the true mixed in with the façade, and of course, the only way we can do it is by accepting ourselves that way.”
“I’m proud of you for the times you came in second, or third, or fourth, but what you did was the best you had ever done.”
