13 Quotes: Huxley, Mother Teresa
Every person who knows how to read has it in their power to
magnify themselves, to multiply the ways in which they exist, to make
life full, significant, and interesting.
--Aldous Huxley
If you think well of others, you will also speak well of others and to
others. From the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. If your
heart is full of love, you will speak of love.
-- Mother Teresa
