Remember that the most difficult tasks are consummated, not by a single explosive burst of energy or effort, but by the constant daily application of the best you have within you.

Always do your best. What you plant now, you will harvest later.

All the gold in the world cannot buy a dying man one more breath--so what does that make today worth?

I will laugh at the world. And most of all, I will laugh at myself for man is most comical when he takes himself too seriously.

Only a habit can subdue another habit.

Failure will never overtake me if my determination to succeed is strong enough.

Always will I dig for reasons to applaud; never will I scratch for excuses to gossip. When I am tempted to criticize I will bite on my tongue; when I am moved to praise I will shout from the roofs.
