MOTHER TERESA

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 WILL WIN SOME TRUE ENEMIES;
SUCCEED ANYWAY. 

IF YOU ARE HONEST AND FRANK,  PEOPLE MAY CHEAT YOU; 
BE HONEST AND FRANK ANYWAY.
WHAT YOU SPEND YEARS BUILDING, SOMEONE COULD DISTROY OVERNIGHT;
BUILD ANYWAY.

IF YOU FIND SERENITY AND HAPPINESS,  THEY MAY BE JEALOUS; 
BE HAPPY ANYWAY.
THE GOOD YOU DO TODAY, PEOPLE WILL OFTEN FORGET TOMORROW;
BE GOOD ANYWAY.

GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU HAVE,  AND IT MAY NEVER BE ENOUGH;
GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU HAVE ANYWAY.

YOU SEE, IT IS BETWEEN YOU AND GOD, IN THE END IT WAS NEVER BETWEEN YOU AND THEM  ANYWAY.
