By Mother Teresa

• People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered: forgive them anyway.
• If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: be kind anyway.
• If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies: succeed anyway.
• If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you: be honest and frank anyway.
• What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight: build anyway.
• The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow: do good anyway.
• Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough: give the world the best you got anyway.

You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God.
