Etiquette: Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.


Modesty: The modest man has everything to gain and the arrogant man everything to lose; for modesty has always to deal with generosity and arrogance with envy.  Antoine Rivarol, 1753-1801.

Modesty is important because it is the fort that protects the castle, the frame that enhances the picture.  Anon.


Perseverance: Endurance is one of the most difficult disciplines, but it is to the one who endures that the final victory comes.  Buddha, 568-488 BC, founder of Buddhism.


Self-control: Little by little, through patience and repeated effort, the mind will become stilled in the Self.  The Bhagavad Gita c. BC 400-, Sanskrit poem incorporated into the Mahabharata.

It is a man’s own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.  Buddha, 568-488 BC, founder of Buddhism.

It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles.  Then the victory is yours.  It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.  Buddha, 568-488 BC, founder of Buddhism.


Indomitable Spirit: Incapable of being overcome, subdued or vanquished; unconquerable.

The body is mortal, but the person dwelling in the body is immortal and immeasurable.  The Bhagavad Gita c. BC 400-, Sanskrit poem incorporated into the Mahabharata.

Strength does not come from physical capacity.  It comes from an indomitable will.  Mahatma Gandhi, 1869-1948, Indian political spiritual leader.
