Always be individual; never do things that are not right just to be sociable. Being honest with yourself and the Principle is your first duty. –Alfred J. Parker

Nothing truly stops you. Nothing truly holds you back, for your own will is always within your control. Sickness may challenge your body. But are you merely your body? –Epictetus

There is nothing in life harder to learn than the lesson of service to your fellowman--to love him for what he is. It is easy to love yourself, but it is hard to love someone else. –Alfred J. Parker

Another destructive channel to well being is comfort: it destroys self-confidence and robs one of a sense of responsibility.
