Self-Control is the very essence of character. To be able to look a man straight in the eye, calmly and deliberately, without the slightest ruffle of temper under extreme provocation, gives a sense of power which nothing else can give. To feel that you are always, not sometimes, master of yourself, gives a dignity and strength to character, buttresses it, supports it on every side, as nothing else can. This is the culmination of thought mastery.

Let your air be that of a winner, a man who is resolved to make his way in the world, to make himself stand for something.

There is an infinite difference between a little wrong and just right, between fairly good and the best, between mediocrity and superiority.

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.

No man can be ideally successful until he has found his place. Like a locomotive he is strong on the track, but weak anywhere else.

No man fails who does his best.

No one has a corner on success. It is his who pays the price.
