Others cannot make you happy. Only you can be happy within yourself by the way you live and your accomplishments. If you are depending on others to make you happy, then you never will be, as happiness is from the heart. Yours, not others.

Well, it's not THE MOST inspirational that I've heard but... "Shoot for the moon, even if you fail you'll land among the stars." The source that I found was Les Brown. However, so many times the quote's author is listed as an unknown.

A few lifetimes ago, I ran a chat room on AOL. And it was a pretty good one really. I started studying people as I sat and watched them type. And someone there gave me this quote. She was a very wise lunatic. I say that with much love. She couldn't handle her life, but she was still very wise. This is what she gave me:
But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'
Lewis Carroll, from Alice in Wonderland.
It fits life. None of us want to go among mad people, but if we didn't, we wouldn't have come.

"One thing: you have to walk, and create the way by your walking; you will not find a ready-made path. It is not so cheap, to reach to the ultimate realization of truth. You will have to create the path by walking yourself; the path is not ready-made, lying there and waiting for you. It is just like the sky: the birds fly, but they don't leave any footprints. You cannot follow them; there are no footprints left behind."

"here from behind my sight, my thoughts, my mind,
show the light
the time is right
and from the depth within, show the balance
of outer and inner harmony
mind and heart, soul and spirit are undivided
here's where true strength and beauty lies
we'll see this before us with our own eyes
we'll see, with our own eyes.... Love."

"Eye for an eye makes the world blind." by Mahatma Ghandi.
He is absolutely right with this philosophy. I hope that the world itself will understand its meaning.
