I have to write a speech about myself. And it is supposed to be persuasive. I would like to end my speech with a quote. I want to know a good quote about looking for the good before it is gone. Or in other words, not to look at the bad side of things. If you know a good quote, please state the quote and who said it. I would like it to be legit!
- Thank You!!!

If you see your shadow , you are facing away from the light.
All the darkness in the world can not put out the light of a candle. The darker it becomes , the brighter the candle seems.
Instead of complaining about the dark , LIGHT A CANDLE
Ronny Marcus

Grab your coat
and get your hat
leave your worries on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
to the sunny side of the street !!

A very very old song lyric (Sunny Side of the Street)

"There was once a man who was sad because he had no shoes, until he met a man who had no feet."

I don't know who coined this, but I first heard it on "Family Matters."
