Love them anyway.
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives...
Do good anyway.
If you are successful, you win false friends and true enemies...
Succeed anyway.
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow...
Do good anyway.
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable...
Be honest and frank anyway.
Those with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest minds...
Think big anyway.
People favor underdogs but only follow top dogs...
Fight for the underdogs anyway.
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight...
Build anyway.
People really need help but may attack you if you help them...
Help people anyway.
Give the world your best and you will get kicked in the teeth...
Give your best anyway.
Wherever there is a human being,
there is an opportunity for kindness."
