I carry these around with me in my wallet (and they have been there for the last 10 years or so):

Do not seek death. Death will find you. But seek the road which makes death a fulfilment.
-Dag Hammarskjold

Your body must become familiar with its death as self-evident, imminent, and emotionally neutral step on the way towards the goal you have found worthy of your life.
-Dag Hammarskjold

Do not undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others.
It is because we are different that each of us is special.
Do not set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
Do not take for granted the things closest to your heart.
Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
Do not let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past, nor for the future.
By living your life one day at a time , you live all the days of your life.
Do not give up when you still have something to give.
Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
It is a fragile thread that binds us to each other.
Do not be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
Do not shut love out of your life by saying it is impossible to find;
The quickest way to recieve love is to give love; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly.
To be without dreams is to be withpout hope; to be without hope is to be without purpose.
Do not run through life so fast that you forget where you have been,
but also where you are going.
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
