About This Quote
Encouraging words are life-giving fountain. Run after them and if you fail to catch, at least you will be close enough to water to quench your thirst. In life, you need to encourage yourself and others to succeed. You need to give people the strength that they need in order for them to get up from their chair or from their bed and continue on with their lives.
People need a reason to fight because if a person has a reason, they will never stop fighting. As you say encouraging words, look at the person’s eyes and make sure that it is genuine. Otherwise, they might see you as a fake and not believe what you have to say.
