H. Jackson Brown Jr.

Remember that children, marriages, and flower gardens reflect the kind of care they get.

Earn your success based on service to others, not at the expense of others.

Nothing is more expensive than a missed opportunity.

Think big thoughts but relish small pleasures.

Watch your finances like a hawk.

Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.

The best preparation for tomorrow is doing your best today.

Love is when the other person's happiness is more important than your own.

Remember that the most valuable antiques are dear old friends.

Never forget the three powerful resources you always have available to you: love, prayer, and forgiveness.

Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking.

Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.

Don't work for recognition, but do work worthy of recognition.

Opportunity dances with those already on the dance floor.

A true friend encourages us, comforts us, supports us like a big easy chair, offering us a safe refuge from the world.

People take different roads seeking fulfillment and happiness. Just because they're not on your road doesn't mean they've gotten lost.

Protect your enthusiasm from the negativity of others.

Always kiss your children goodnight, even if they're already asleep.

Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful than the one with all the facts.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.
