1. Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is you-er than you!
2. You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
3. A person’s a person, no matter how small.
4. The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.
5. Today was good. Today was fun. Tomorrow is another one.
6. You’re never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child.
7. Only you can control your future.
8. Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.
9. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it’s a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope, and that enables you to laugh at life’s realities.
10. Why fit in when you were born to stand out?
11. Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
12. Be who you are and say what you mean. Because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
13. You are you. Now, isn’t that pleasant?
14. Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting so get on your way!
15. Will you succeed? Yes! You will, indeed! (98 and 3/4 percent guaranteed.)
