"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'll win some false friends and some enemies; succeed anyway.
What you spend years building, someone may destroy in one night; build away.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous; be happy 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 anyway.
You see, in final analysis, it is between you and God; it was never between you and them anyway." -unknown
