There is no chance, no destiny, no fate that can circumvent, or hinder, or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.

And the smile that is worth the praises of earth is the smile that shines through tears.

Let there be many windows to your soul that all the glory of the world may beautify it.

One ship drives east and other drives west by the same winds that blow. It's the set of the sails and not the gales that determines the way they go.
