All my life I have risen regularly at four o'clock and have gone into the woods and talked to God. There He gives me my orders for the day.

One reason I never patent my products is that if I did it would take so much time, I would get nothing else done. But mainly I don't want my discoveries to benefit specific favored persons.

There is no short cut to acheivement.

Most people search high and wide for the key to success. If they only knew, the key to their dreams lies within.

Nothing is more beautiful than the loveliness of the woods before sunrise.

Learn to do common things uncommonly well; we must always keep in mind that anything that helps fill the dinner pail is valuable.

Do what you can, with what you have and do it now!
