You can't conquer reality by running away from it.

God will never give you any problems that he thinks you can't solve.

Each problem has a positive side.

I will persist. I will always take another step. If that is of no avail I will take another, and yet another.

Do all things with love.

I'd rather learn how to prevent failure than how to gain success, because for what is success other than a state of mind?

There are two kinds of discontented in this world, the discontented that works and the discontented that wrings its hands. The first gets what it wants and the second loses what it has. There is no cure for the first but success and there is no cure at all for the second. The very worst of my vices and bad habits will abate of themselves if they are brought to an accounting every day.
