“An authentic and genuine life grows like a sturdy tree. And like a tree, it grows slowly. Every time you make a different and better decision, it grows a little. Every time you choose to do the right thing, even when nobody would find out otherwise, it grows a little. Every time you act with compassion, relinquish your right to strike back, take a courageous stand, admit fault or accept responsibility, it grows a little.”
― Steve Goodier

“Society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.”

― Mikhail Lermontov, A Hero of Our Time

“Men of few words are the best men."
