People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocrity, no matter how impressive their other talents.

Wealth is not to feed our egos but to feed the hungry and to help people help themselves.

Don't be content with doing only your duty. Do more than your duty. It's the horse that finishes a neck ahead that wins the race.

The man who acquires the ability to take full possession of his own mind may take possession of anything else to which he is justly entitled.

Do your duty and a little more and the future will take care of itself.

Show me a man of average ability but extraordinary desire and I'll show you a winner every time.

Immense power is acquired by assuring yourself in your secret reveries that you were born to control affairs.
