I must uphold my ideals, for perhaps the time will come when I shall be able to carry them out.
Anne Frank
Image
The weak fall, but the strong will remain and never go under!
Anne Frank
Image
I've found that there is always some beauty left-in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself these can all help you. Look at these things, then you find yourself again, and God, and then you regain your balance. And whoever is happy will make others happy too. He who has courage and faith will never perish in misery!

Memories mean more to me than dresses.
Anne Frank
Image
Ordinary people simply don't know what books mean to us, shut up here. Reading, learning, and the radio are our amusements.
Anne Frank
Image
People who have a religion should be glad, for not everyone has the gift of believing in heavenly things.
Anne Frank
Image
Then I fall asleep with a stupid feeling of wishing to be different from what I am or from what I want to be perhaps to behave differently from the way I want to behave or do behave.
Anne Frank

Sometimes I'm so deeply buried under self-reproaches that I long for a word of comfort to help me dig myself out again.
Anne Frank
Image
Everyone thinks I'm showing off when I talk, ridiculous when I'm silent, insolent when I answer, cunning when I have a good idea, lazy when I'm tired, selfish when I eat one bite more than I should.
Anne Frank
Image
I want to go on living even after my death, And therefore I am grateful to God For giving this gift... Of expressing all that is in me.
Anne Frank
Image
Human greatness does not lie in wealth or power, but in character and goodness. People are just people, and all people have faults and shortcomings, but all of us are born with a basic goodness.
Anne Frank
Image
Sympathy, Love, Fortune... We all have these qualities but still tend to not use them!
Anne Frank
Image
You can always-always-give something, even if it's a simple act of kindness! If everyone were to give in this way and didn't scrimp on kindly words, there would be much more love and justice in the world!
Anne Frank
Image
Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands.
Anne Frank
Image
No one has ever become poor by giving.
Anne Frank
Image
Then, without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day of course, you achieve quite a lot in the course of time. Anyone can do this, it costs nothing and is certainly very helpful. Whoever doesn't know it must learn and find by experience that a quiet conscience makes one strong.
Anne Frank
Image
Why are millions spent on the war each day, while not a penny is available for ... artists or the poor? Why do people have to starve when mountians of food are rotting away in other parts of the world? Oh, why are people so crazy?

People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but that doesn't stop you from having your own opinion.
Anne Frank
Image
Older people have formed their opinions about everything, and don't waver before they act. It's twice as hard for us young ones to hold our ground, and maintain our opinions, in a time when all ideals are being shattered and destroyed, when people are showing their worst side, and do not know whether to believe in truth and right and God.
