- People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered – forgive them anyway
- If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies – be successful anyway
- If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives – be kind 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
- If you find serenity and happiness, others may be jealous – be happy anyway
- The good you do today, people will forget tomorrow – do good anyway
- Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough – give your best anyway
- For you see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God.
- It was never between you and them anyway.
