&quot;For Attractive lips, speak words of kindness, For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people, For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry, For Beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day, For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself and the other for helping others.&quot; <br /> &mdash; Audrey Hepburn

Invictus<br /> Out of the night that covers me, <br /> Black as the Pit from pole to pole, <br /> I thank whatever gods may be <br /> For my unconquerable soul. <br /> <br /> In the fell clutch of circumstance <br /> I have not winced nor cried aloud. <br /> Under the bludgeonings of chance <br /> My head is bloody, but unbowed. <br /> <br /> Beyond this place of wrath and tears <br /> Looms but the Horror of the shade, <br /> And yet the menace of the years <br /> Finds, and shall find, me unafraid. <br /> <br /> It matters not how strait the gate, <br /> How charged with punishments the scroll. <br /> I am the master of my fate: <br /> I am the captain of my soul.<br /> <br /> William Ernest Henley
