More Great Quotes

More great inspirational quotes from yours truly. I needed a reminder, and thought I'd share it with you.

Each quote's originator is listed below. Try and see if you know or can guess any.

1. "Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going to know whether you did it or not."

2. "Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."

3. "Anger makes you smaller, while forgiveness forces you to grow beyond what you were. "

4. "If I have been of service, if I have glimpsed more of the nature and essence of ultimate good, if I am inspired to reach wider horizons of thought and action, if I am at peace with myself, it has been a successful day."

5. "One moment of patience may ward off great disaster. One moment of impatience may ruin a whole life."

6. "Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death."

7. "Be not afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact."

8. "Life is short and we have never too much time for gladdening the hearts of those who are traveling the dark journey with us. Oh be swift to love, make haste to be kind."

9. "Conquer the angry man by love.
Conquer the ill-natured man by goodness.
Conquer the miser with generosity.
Conquer the liar with truth."
