"For attractive lips, speak words of kindness.
For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people.
For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry.
For beautiful hair, let a child run his fingers through it.
And for poise, walk with the knowledge that
you'll never walk alone."

"What is Success?
To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by
a healthy child, a garden patch
or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed
easier because you have lived;
This is to have succeeded."
-attributed to Ralph Waldo Emerson

Steadfastness,
That is holding on;
Patience,
That is holding back;

That is holding up the face;
Obedience,
That is holding oneself in readiness to go or do;
Listening,
That is holding quiet and still so as to hear.
