In this way, clothing is as much a part of human body language as gestures, facial expressions and postures. Even those people who insist that they despise attention to clothing,

alter it every six months." "Apparel oft proclaims the man." “It is fancy rather than taste which produces so many new

unconsciously give permission for others to do the same.
When we liberate ourselves from our own fears, simply our
presence may liberate others." "You have the ability to improve every aspect of your life." "It's never too late to be the person you could have been." "The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to

The entire area was covered with deep snow. Before long, the hiker's hands and feet grew numb as he wandered through the storm and snow in search of shelter. Just then he came upon an older man who had collapsed in the snow. "Are you OK?" asked the hiker. "I'm so cold and so tired," the weary man stammered. "My legs are numb, and I don't think I have the strength to go any further." The hiker responded: "Let me help you." He then removed his gloves and began rubbing the man's arms and legs. After several minutes of this gentle massage, the man felt strong enough to stand on his feet. The two men, supporting each other, made their way through the storm.
Once they reached safety and shelter, the younger man thanked the other
for all his help. "Thank me?" said the older man. "I
never would have made it out of there if it wasn't for you. I owe you
my life,"
he said. "No, you don't understand," responded the younger
man.
"I was tired, cold, and ready to give up. Helping you gave me the
strength and determination to carry on. I owe you everything." "Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind
don't matter and those who matter don't mind." "Success is the ability to go from one failure to another
with no loss of enthusiasm." "Most people fail in life because they major in minor things." "When you go for the impossible you make way for the incredible."
