"smile, even if it's a sad smile. because sadder than a sad smile
is the sadness of not knowing how to smile."
Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow.
"Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it."
"It isn't what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you unhappy or happy. It's what you think about."
"keep your head up kid, because
there are people killing to see you fall."
