I was brought up on the romance of American achievement. No matter where you start, if you work hard and if you think positively and if you dream dreams and if you have good character, you can lift the status of yourself, your family, your friends and everyone around you. This doesn't mean that your object in life is to become rich or famous. Just do the best you can with yourself. I think that Almighty God has put that into us and I'm going to do the best I can with myself. That's what I call the romance of achievement. Achievement means to be what, by the grace of God, you can be.

You are overcome by the fact because you think you are.

Live your life and forget your age.

Americans used to roar like lions for liberty; now we bleat like sheep for security.

I firmly believe that when you die you will enter immediately into another life. They who have gone before us are alive in one form of life and we in another.

When learning stops, decay sets in.

If you think lack you tend to create a condition of lack. Shift your thought pattern to one of abundance and believe that God is now in the process of giving you the abundance you need.
