You need have no dull hours if you are a sincere lover of books.

If you are willing, great things are possible to you.

Periods of wholesome laziness, after days of energetic effort, will wonderfully tone up the mind and body.

Study words so that you can use them significantly, effectively, worthily.

You are already of consequence in the world if you are known as a man of strict integrity.

When you want a thing deeply, earnestly and intensely, this feeling of desire reinforces your will and arouses in you the determination to work for the desired object.

Those who have attained things worth having in this world have worked while others idled, have persevered while others gave up in despair, have practiced ...the valuable habits of self-denial, industry, and singleness of purpose.
