The Anglo-Saxon farmers had scarce conquered foothold, stronghold, freehold in the Western wilderness before they became sowers of hemp--with remembrance of Virginia, with remembrance of dear ancestral Britain.

Good thoughts bear good fruit.

Circumstances do not determine a man, they reveal him.

Man's rise or fall, success or failure, happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude ... a man's attitude will create the situation he imagines.

You cannot escape the results of your thoughts. Whatever your present environment may be, you will fall, remain or rise with your thoughts, your vision, your ideal. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration.

The truth in you remains as radiant as a star, as pure as light, as innocent as love itself.

I have yet to encounter that common myth of weak men, an insurmountable barrier.
