Rudyard Kipling
You can take pride in yourself without comparing yourself to anybody else. If you run your race and be the best that you can be, then you can feel good about yourself. Joel Osteen
On soft Spring nights I'll stand in the yard under the stars - Something good will come out of all things yet - And it will be golden and eternal just like that - There's no need to say another word. Jack Kerouac

Questions of absolute good and evil are much better not opened to public debate these days, when so few people are sure of their absolutes Sidney Howard
Andy Rooney quote: "I'm always on the lookout for something good about people...."
I'm always on the lookout for something good about people. Often months go by. Andy Rooney
Cultivating whatever gave pleasure to my senses was always the chief business of my life; I have never found any occupation more important. Feeling that I was born for the sex opposite mine, I have always loved it and done all that I could to make myself loved by it. I have also been extravagantly fond of good food and irresistibly drawn by anything which could excite curiosity. Giacomo Casanova
Nick Hornby quote: "I'm very good at the past. It's the present I can't understand."
I'm very good at the past. It's the present I can't understand. Nick Hornby
The fact is, the king was a good deal more than a king, he was a man; and when a man is a man, you can't knock it out of him. Mark Twain
Probity, sincerity, candor, conviction, the idea of duty, are things that, when in error, can turn hideous, but? even though hideous? remain great; their majesty, peculiar to the human conscience, persists in horror. They are virtues with a single vice? error. The pitiless, sincere joy of a fanatic in an act of atrocity preserves some mournful radiance that inspires veneration. Without suspecting it, Javert, in his dreadful happiness, was pitiful, like every ignorant man in triumph. Nothing... Victor Hugo
