They know your face, but not your mind.They understand your words, but not your heart.They hear your name, but not your soul.They grasp your past, but not your future.

Ignore those who resent you. Avoid those who begrudge you. Excuse those who envy you. Pity those who hate you.

If roses were not special weeds would not envy them.

Though you are as a drop in the ocean, without you, the universe would be empty.

A diamond is just another stone to one who is ignorant of its value.
