Make your optimism come true.

Be too big for worry and too noble for anger.

Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

A man who is morally clean, other things being equal, has in every instance, greater agility, greater capacity, and greater endurance by far than the man who is not.

Never try to compel others to change; leave them free to change naturally and orderly because they want to; and they will want to when they find that your change was worthwhile. To inspire in others a desire to chance for the better is truly noble; but this you can do only by leaving them alone, and becoming more noble yourself.

Nature intends all men and women to be mental and spiritual giants, and does not intend that any one should follow the will of another.
