Be the change you want to see in the world.

Count your age by friends, not years.

If you treat a man as he is, he will remain as he is; if you treat him as he ought to be and could be, he will become as he ought to be and could be.

We must always change, renew, rejuvenate ourselves; otherwise we harden.

How can you come to know yourself? Never by thinking; always by doing. Try to do your duty, and you'll know right away what you amount to. And what is your duty? Whatever the day calls for.
