Make every day your masterpiece.

Although there is no progress without change, not all change is progress.

The general feeling is, if you don't treat everyone the same you're showing partiality. To me, that's when you show the most partiality, when you treat everyone the same. You must give each individual the treatment that you feel he earns and deserves, recognizing at all times that you're imperfect and you're going to be incorrect oftentimes in your judgment.

The goal in life is the same as in basketball: make the effort to do the best you are capable of doing--in marriage, at your job, in the community, for your country. Make the effort to contribute in whatever way you can. You may do it materially or with time, ideas, or work. Making the effort to contribute is what counts. The effort is what counts in everything.

Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.

Surround yourself with people strong enough to change your mind.

Make a decision! Failure to act is often the biggest failure of all.
