How true it is that, if we are cheerful and contented, all nature smiles, the air seems more balmy, the sky clearer, the earth has a brighter green... the flowers are more fragrant... and the sun, moon, and stars all appear more beautiful, and seem to rejoice with us.

As long as a man faces life hopefully, confidently, triumphantly he is not a failure

You have not found your place until all your faculties are roused, and your whole nature consents and approves of the work you are doing.

Every experience in life, everything with which we have come in contact in life, is a chisel which has been cutting away at our life statue, molding, modifying, shaping it. We are part of all we have met. Everything we have seen, heard, felt or thought has had its hand in molding us, shaping us.

All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers.

Make every occasion a great occasion, for you can never tell who may be taking your measure for a higher place.

A man will remain a rag-picker as long as he has only the vision of a rag-picker.
