Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self - centered... Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, unkind motives... Be kind anyway. If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you... Be honest anyway. What you spend years building; someone can destroy overnight... Build anyway. If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous... Be happy anyway. The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow... Do good anyway. You may give the world the best you have and it may never be enough... Give the world the best anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway. Mother Theresa of Calcutta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 a different Theresa... Oh! if human beings might only agree together to regard it (money) as so much useless mud, what harmony would then reign in the world! With what friendship we would all treat each other if our interest in honor and in money could but disappear from earth! For my own part, I feel as if it would be a remedy for all our ills. - St. Theresa of Avila Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
