Quotations

1. Laugh… Like you have never cried…play like you have never lost…love…like you have never been hurt and live today like there is no tomorrow.

2. Good, Better, Best don’t take rest until good becomes better and better becomes best. Work hard when others take rest. Then success will be your guest.

3. The most selfish one letter ‘I’ avoid it. Most satisfactory two letters ‘WWE’ use it. Most poisonous three letters ‘EGO’ kill it.

4. Time can make you forget some memories. But there are some memories which make you forget time and those memories make life sweet, sweeter, sweetest.

5. When you don’t want today, you will need them tomorrow, whom you reject today will never again accept you tomorrow. So take care of your friends.

6. Your dream will not die, your plans will not fail, your destiny will not be aborted. The desire of your heart will be granted only if you BELIEVE in yourself.

7. Do not count what you have lost… Just see what you have now. Because past never comes back, but sometimes future can give us back our lost things.

8. When you respond to life, that’s positive when you react to life, that’s negative.

9. Everybody says ‘mistake is the first step of success’. But, the fact is ‘Correction of mistake is the first step of success’

10. Nothing can be changed by changing the face but everything can be changed by facing the change. Go ahead. Life is yours.
