Don’t believe in miracles — depend on them. – Laurence J. Peter
Somewhere, right now, a miracle is happening. – Unknown
I have found in life that if you want a miracle you first need to do whatever it is you can do – if that’s to plant, then plant; if it is to read, then read; if it is to change, then change; if it is to study, then study; if it is to work, then work; whatever you have to do.

Impossible situations can become possible miracles – Robert H. Schuller
