The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature.

- Anne Frank

"The greatest degree of inner tranquility comes from the development of love and compassion.

The more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being."

Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama

"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and

suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved."

Helen Keller

plans to give you hope and a future " (NIV)
