If you got it, ask yourself why and try to repeat the action. If you failed, ask yourself why and try to learn from the experience.

If you want to be enthusiastic, act enthusiastic.

One can win the attention and time and cooperation of even the most sought-after people by becoming genuinely interested in them.

Are you bored with life? Then throw yourself into some work you believe in with all your heart, live for it, die for it, and you will find happiness that you had thought could never be yours.

If you have some idea you believe in, don't listen to the croaking chorus. Listen only to what your own inner voice tells you.

when the fierce, burning winds blow over our lives-and we cannot prevent them-let us, too, accept the inevitable. And then get busy and pick up the pieces.

The sure-thing boat never gets far from shore.
