Good timber does not grow with ease: The stronger wind, the stronger trees The further sky, the greater length The more the storm, the more the strength. By sun and cold, by rain and snow, In trees and men good timbers grow.

The tree that never had to fight for sun and sky and air and light but stood out in the open plain and always got it share of rain, never became a forest king but lived and died a scrubby thing. Good timber does not grow with ease. The stronger wind, the stronger trees.

You have to believe in happiness, or happiness never comes.

If you can't be a highway, then just be a trail, If you can't be the sun, be a star It isn't by size that you win or you fail- Be the best of whatever you are.

Courage is to feel the daily daggers of relentless steel and keep on living.

Men look to the East for the dawning things, for the light of a raising sun But they look to the West, to the crimson West, for the things that are done, are done.

The biggest liar in the world is They Say.
