Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
“ The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.” “ Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.” “ Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.” The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, but must be felt with the heart. “ Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.” “ Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement.” “ What we have once enjoyed we can never lose.” “ The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even heard, but must be felt with the heart.” “ It is not possible for me to be a good person without being a good citizen.” “ The most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, but just felt in the heart.” “ I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something.” |
