"Everything that is new or uncommon raises a pleasure in the imagination, because it fills the soul with an agreeable surprise, gratifies its curiosity, and gives it an idea of which it was not before possessed."

"Courage comes with action. The minute you step forward, the minute you declare your decision, the minute you say, "This is how it's going to go." courage comes. It floods through you and energizes every single fiber of your being. You don't have to wait for it. It'll be there."

Sometimes we might need a gentle push.

It will switch around as those somebodies might need to offer you a gentle push someday.


You have two hands. One to help yourself, the second to help others.
