It's easy to work for somebody else; all you have to do is show up.

A man's not doing much until the cause he works for possesses all there is of him. Desire, when harnessed, is power.

No mistake or failure is as bad as to stop and not try again.

If we could only make our hands move as actively as our tongues, what wonders we could accomplish! Almost everyone loves to hear his own voice. It is so easy, too! Yet if we could say less and do more for each other's good, not alone would every home be happier, but communities would be enriched thereby. Instead of criticism by speech, to show someone a better way to do a thing would be of much greater value.

Courtesy is the one coin you can never have too much of or be stingy with.

Gratitude takes three forms: a feeling in the heart, an expression in words, and a giving in return.

Nothing comes merely by thinking about it.
