Of all forms of slavery there is none that is so harmful and degrading as that form of slavery which tempts one human being to hate another by reason of his race or color. One man cannot hold another man down in the ditch without remaining down in the ditch with him.

Those who are happiest are those who do the most for others.

The highest test of the civilization of any race is in its willingness to extend a helping hand to the less fortunate.

Success waits patiently for anyone who has the determination and strength to seize it.

There is no defense or security for any of us except in the highest intelligence and development of all.

Nothing ever comes to one, that is worth having, except as a result of hard work.

I think I have learned that the best way to lift one's self up is to help someone else.
