Look about you. Take hold of the things that are here. Let them talk to you. You learn to talk to them.

Ninety-nine percent of the failures come from people who have the habit of making excuses.

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.

Start where you are, with what you have. Make something of it and never be satisfied.

Education, in the broadest of truest sense, will make an individual seek to help all people, regardless of race, regardless of color, regardless of condition.

Without my Savior, I am nothing.

Never a day passes but that I do myself the honor to commune with some of nature's varied forms.
