Cultivate the habit of laughter.

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

Never settle for the crumbs of life.

If the ingredients for happiness are not within a person, no material success or entertainment or platinum credit cards can make that person smile.

Let your actions always speak for you, but be forever on guard against the terrible traps of false pride and conceit that can halt your progress. The next time you are tempted to boast, just place your fist in a full pail of water, and when you remove it, the hole remaining will give you a correct measure of your importance.

Take great comfort in knowing that ALL great feats are accomplished one small step at a time.

Laugh and your life will be lengthened for this is the great secret of long life.
