A talk is a voyage. It must be charted. The speaker who starts nowhere, usually gets there.

If you want to be enthusiastic, act enthusiastic.

If you believe in what you are doing, then let nothing hold you up in your work.

The value of a smile... It costs nothing, but creates much. It enriches those who receive, without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without it, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits. It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends.

When ill luck besets us, to ease the tension we have only to remember that happiness is relative. The next time you are tempted to grumble about what has happened to you, why not pause and be glad that it is no worse than it is.

Don't you have much more faith in ideas that you discover for yourself than in ideas that are handed to you on a silver platter?

How often we all have heard speakers begin by calling the attention of the audience to their lack of preparation or lack of ability. If you are not prepared, the audience will probably discover it without your assistance.
