Matshona Dhliwayo

A diamond only truly appreciates pressure the day it begins to shine.

What you conquer in your soul you conquer in your world.

Light on its worst day will conquer darkness on its best day.

The uglier the storm the lovelier the rainbow.

Whether your glass is half full or half empty, hope can fill it up.

Spend time with people who enrich your mind, nourish your heart, and illuminate your soul.

In light, there is no darkness; and in darkness, there is no light.

A star is not afraid of darkness, for its light comes from within.

If you want to know a person__ true character, observe how he treats those who don__ matter.

If you can__ move a mountain by faith, move it by carrying away stone by stone.

You were given the problems you have because you can solve them; the burdens, because you can carry them; the trials, because you can overcome them; the opponents, because you can beat them; and the enemies, because you can conquer them.

The sun stands out not because it merely shines, but because it shines on everyone.

If they say you will fall, rise. If they say you will fail, succeed. If they say you will break, kept it together. If they say you will deteriorate, flourish.

If the wind brushes against you, do not complain; it brushes against everyone.

You were not born to impress the world, but to impress the universe.

Prayer is the best way to hug those who are far away.

Stars give so much to the world without demanding payment. Be likewise.

If size really mattered, a match wouldn__ be able to set a forest on fire.
