INSPIRATIONS 1. Kindness is the lubricant for the frictions of life. 2. We could all take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism. 3. Laughter translates into any language. 4.

The way some people find fault, you'd think there was a reward. 18. To enjoy the full flavor of life, always take big bites. 19. Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else. 20. There are two kinds of people: those who do the work and those who take the credit. Try to be in the first group -- there is much less competition there. 21. Nothing gives one person so much advantage over another as to remain always cool and unruffled under all circumstances. 22.

Friendship should not be thought of as something we get; it is something we give. 26. People who try to whittle you down are only trying to reduce you to their size. 27. Sometimes the best way to convince a person they are wrong is to let them have their own way. 28. The future is that time when you'll wish you'd done what you aren't doing now. 29. It is easy to be critical. The real test is to come up with constructive alternatives. 30.

Put your interest in the future because you're going to spend the rest of your life there. 32. Modesty is for those who have no talent. 33. There are no absolute answers to life -- just revelations. 34. A path without obstacles probably leads nowhere. 35. Your conscience never stops you from doing anything. It just stops you from enjoying it. 36. Friendship is a work of heart. 37. We are what memories have made us. 38. If ignorance is bliss, why aren't there more happy people? 39. Don't get even -- get odd. 40. Nothing makes your sense of humor disappear faster than having somebody ask where it is. 41. One way to prevent conversation from being boring is to say the wrong thing. 42. The perfect guest is one who makes his host feel at home. 43. Education is the process of moving from cocksure ignorance to thoughtful uncertainty. 44. Considering all of the things you wear, your expression is the most important. 45. The surest way to knock the chip off a person's shoulder is by patting them on the back. 46. Our eyes are placed in front because it is more important to look ahead than back. 47.

People may doubt what you say, but they will believe what you do. 50. A smile increases your face value. 51. Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product. 52. Prevent a hassle -- smile first. 53.
