Fear of self is the greatest of all terrors, the deepest of all dread, the commonest of all mistakes. From it grows failure. Because of it, life is a mockery. Out of it comes despair.

If you give yourself to your task at once, you won't have to do it twice.

A wise unselfishness is not a surrender of yourself to the wishes of anyone, but only to the best discoverable course of action.

Tell a man something is bad, and he's not at all sure he wants to give it up. Describe it as stupid, and he knows it's the better part of caution to listen.

Fear of self is the greatest of all terrors, the deepest of all dread, the commonest of all mistakes. From it grows failure. Because of it, life is a mockery. Out of it comes despair.

Make yourself an efficient spark plug, igniting the latent energy of those about you.

No man will work for your interests unless they are his.
