“Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind.”
Henry James
“Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.”
Maria Robinson

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
“Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.”
Earl Nightingale
