Be ready to change your goals, but never your values.

For our life to be of value, I think we must develop basic good human qualities — warmth, kindness, compassion. Then our life becomes meaningful and more peaceful — happier.

Open your arms to change but don’t let go of your values.

The goodbyes we speak and the goodbyes we hear are the good byes that tell us we're still alive

The value of achievement lies in the achieving.

Even with all of the things that are so awful, if you walk into your yard and stay there looking at almost anything for five minutes, you will be stunned by how marvelous life is and how incredibly lucky we are to have it.
