The man who has done his level best... is a success, even though the world may write him down a failure.

In the race for success, speed is less important than stamina.

Use life to provide something that outlasts it.

The men who have done big things are those who were not afraid to attempt big things, who were not afraid to risk failure in order to gain success.

A price has to be paid for success. Almost invariably those who have reached the summits worked harder and longer, studied and planned more assiduously, practiced more self- denial, overcame more difficulties than those of us who have not risen so far.

Without self-respect there can be no genuine success. Success won at the cost of self-respect is not success ? for what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world and loses his own self-respect.

The truth doesn't hurt unless it ought to.
