The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

Your living is determined not so much by what life brings to you as by the attitude you bring to life.

You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself, in your way of thinking.

We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.

It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.

Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.

The garden of the world has no limits, except in your mind.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response.

I never lose. I either win or learn.

A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference.

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

A person does not merely adapt to conditions; he actively creates his destiny through how he interprets them.

The greatest weapon against stress is our ability to choose one thought over another.

Human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind.

Pessimism leads to weakness, optimism to power.

If you want a quality, act as if you already had it.

All the powers in the universe are already ours. It is we who have put our hands before our eyes and cry that it is dark.

Whatever you think, that you will be. If you think yourselves weak, weak you will be; if you think yourselves strong, strong you will be.

Man is made by his belief. As he believes, so he is.

A man is but the product of his thoughts. What he thinks, he becomes.

Keep your thoughts positive, because your thoughts become your words.

The mind is everything. What you think you become.

Folks are usually about as happy as they make their minds up to be.

He who conquers himself is the mightiest warrior.

Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change.

He who is not in the habit of saying 'What shall I think of this? What shall I think of this?'—I can indeed do nothing with him!

We choose our joys and our sorrows long before we experience them.

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it.
