Life is either a great adventure or nothing.

As the eagle was killed by the arrow winged with his own feather, so the hand of the world is wounded by its own skill.

It is with a kind of fear that I begin to write the history of my life.

You will succeed if you persevere; and you will find joy in overcoming obstacles.

The world is sown with good; but unless I turn my glad thoughts into practical living and till my own field. I cannot reap a kernel of the good.

Good friends walk in when the old ones walk out.

Be of good cheer. Do not think of today's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow. You have set yourselves a difficult task, but you will succeed if you persevere, and you will find a joy in overcoming obstacles... Remember, no effort that we make to attain something beautiful is ever lost.
