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 false friends and 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 destroy overnight — build anyway!
If you find serenity and happiness, many people may be jealous — be happy anyway!
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow — do good anyway!
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough — Give it the best you’ve got anyway!
