When you look fear in the face, you are able to say to yourself, 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.'

To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart.

A guest is really good or bad because of the host or hostess who makes being a guest an easy or a difficult task.

About the only value the story of my life may have is to show that one can, even without any particular gifts, overcome obstacles that seem insurmountable if one is willing to face the fact that they must be overcome.

It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself.

As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do--I just did it.

When it's better for everyone, it's better for everyone.
