There is a tendency among some businesses to criticize and belittle their competitors. This is a bad procedure. Praise them. Learn from them. There are times when you can co-operate with them to their advantage and to yours! Speak well of them and they will speak well of you. You can't destroy good ideas. Take advantage of them.

Courage is heartworth making itself felt in deeds. It never waits for chances; it makes chances.

Each day can be one of triumph if you keep up your interests.

He climbs highest who helps another up.

One of the great arts in living is to learn the art of accurately appraising values. Everything that we think, that we earn, that we have given to us, that in any way touches our consciousness, has its own value. These values are apt to change with the mood, with time, or because of circumstances. We cannot safely tie to any material value. The values of all material possessions change continually, sometimes over night. Nothing of this nature has any permanent set value. The real values are those that stay by you, give you happiness and enrich you. They are the human values.

The further you get from nature, the less happy you are; and the nearer, the more exultant you become over the world and all that there is in it.

It's what each of us sows, and how, that gives us character and prestige.
